Fussy and Fancy Challenge 142 - Fancy Folds

Happy Friday
Fussy and Fancy followers!

********
 

Our challenge for the next
fortnight is hosted by our

very sweet and talented

Norma

 

 

Hello.

My name is Norma and when it comes to card-making I am definitely a

Fussy and Fancy kind of gal.

I simply love adding embellishments to my cards.  The hardest type of cards for me to create is actually when I have to make CAS (clean and simple) cards and have to restrain myself from embellishing...ha ha.

My cards tend to feature images (rubberstamps or digitals) that I like to colour with alcohol-ink markers and/or coloured pencils.  My favorite embellishments are flowers, pearls and swirls/flourishes.  I'm a die-and-punch addict--spent way too much money on them...lol.  Love to make my own paper flowers.  I also love doing fancy fold cards and that's why I chose this theme for the challenge.

 

 

The challenge Norma has chosen is:

 

Fancy Folds
 

Here is the gorgeous card
that Norma has created
