Share It Sunday - Snailed It
It's Share It Sunday and today I'm sharing a bright and cheery card featuring the Snailed It Bundle. I absolute love this bundle - every card is so bright and cheery! Who can resist the adorable snails and mushrooms!
My card today is a Shutter Fold card. I shared this fancy fold card on a recent Creativity Abounds Blog Hop along with a YouTube video on how to make this fancy fold. Check it out. The card in the video features the Hydrangea Haven Bundle, but the instructions for making the card are the same.
Instructions

- Adhere to the inside of the card - apply 1 row Dimensionals to the top and bottom. Do not apply adhesive in the middle.
- Stamp sentiment using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and hearts using Real Red Ink on a 2 1/2" x 2 1/2" piece of Basic White cardstock. Punch out using 2" Circle Punch.
- Colour hearts using Dark Real Red Stampin' Blends
- Adhere to the inside of the circle on the inside of the card.
- Cut 2 pieces of Poppy Parade cardstock 3 1/2" x 4".
- Score each at 1/2" on 4" side.

- Mark in the centre along 2" line at 1 3/4"

- Tuck one piece in from the left side and the other piece in from the right side.
- Line up edge of piece with the score line of card base.
