The big flower came from an old Daisy D's paper, there were many flowers on a page with some extra circles and you punched them out. I have one flower left on that paper pack. I did cut into the flower so I could shape the petals a bit and added an extra circle center to it with some foam tape to give it some lift. The ribbon is paper I cut with die, link is below in the list of supplies.
K&co. --- Classic Designer paper
Daisy D's -- Attic Flowers
Cheery Lynn Designs - Alison's ribbons
Stampendous -- Orchid greetings sentiment stamp
It was fun to do and I really creased the folds and taped them down with my scor-tape that is heavy duty and the card was really flat for mailing.
Wishing you a creative and fun weekend ahead.
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop in today,
Connie

Oh, Connie, what a beautiful card, and I love the pleated DP. And your beautiful flower is lovely with the center. I love the Cheery Lynn ribbon die. I've not seen that before, but it looks like real ribbon. Love the colors, and i know that will be loved! Hugs, sweet friend, and have a great weekend and keep cool!
Oh this is awesome Connie! I've been meaning to give this technique a whirl but just haven't gotten around to it yet! Thanks for inspiration ... Have a great day!
I love the "drape" cards and yours is so lovely with beautiful papers! Great job!
That's a pretty fold! Love your Designer Papers and that big bold blossom!
Your pleats are gorgeous! I love the big flower, too! Very neat card!
I have seen the tutorials, but I do not have too much double sided patterned paper that is long enough for those tutorials. I do love the look, though! TFS!
I love this fold and have yet to try it myself! Such pretty papers and I love the bloom too.
Super cute technique and colors Connie.
Hugs Diane

Soooo pretty, Connie! I like the way your draping turned out. You chose the perfect paper to show it off, and what pretty paper it is! Love that big flower with its printed center. Very nice!!
A very nice card indeed, it must have taken a little while to produce, but well worth it. I really like it.
Wishing you a relaxing weekend
All the best Jan
I love the draped paper; such a pretty pattern. The big flower makes such a happy statement and the added circle in the middle is a lovely finishing touch. One couldn't help but smile when they open the envelope and see this pretty card, wishing them a happy birthday.
Lovely card, and I love this new drape technique on cards!!! You did a wonderful job with the flower and color choice!
