Hello Kitty

This is a triangular tri-fold card. When folded it measures 4" square. When it is opened completely it measures 4"x12." I used a dark blue cardstock for the base of the card. The button patterned paper is Debbie Mumm and I've had it in my stash for a couple of years. I tied it with a ribbon which is also from my stash. The Hello Kitty image is from Hello Kitty Greetings, cut at 3 1/4." I put pop-dots only on half of the image so that the card would still open. I added a button to the bow and x-mas red Stickles to the button and bow and glossy accents to the rain jacket. I finished it off with a couple of buttons to the corners. I made this for the following challenges: 365 Cards: "Fancy Folds" - triangular tri-fold Picture Perfect Creations: riding hood red, not quite navy, so saffron My Sheri: buttons Paper Playtime: weather Cooking with Cricut: "Cash in Your Stash" - use stuff you've had for more than a year (buttons, ribbon, patterned paper) Whimsical Wednesday: "April Showers Bring May Flowers" - use an umbrella, rain boots, flowers or rain drops

  5. Hi, Paula! I'm so sorry that I haven't dropped by your blog in a while. I have been busy with my design team and a blog hop that's coming up this weekend. Between those 2 things and job hunting, there just hasn't been a lot of extra time. Your card is adorable and I looked at some of your other recent projects too... they are all really cute. Looks like you have been rather busy too! I hope you'll drop in on the hop if you get a chance. It's posted on my blog if you're interested. Thanks for your sweet comment on my card too.
