Our group is no longer doing zoom but now we are on skype. We got together for the first time in a long time, Some were moving and others on vacations and just life happening, but we were able to get together at the beginning of this week and made this card with a new technique to me and a different fold.
The first thing we did was to stamp image onto vellum using pigment white ink and then embossing with white embossing powder. Then turn over and using oxide ink, stamp the image again but this time embossing with clear embossing powder, then you pick which side you want to face up and glue it to another piece of cardstock, I went with green cardstock and I used a very thin layer of Simon Says glue stick to adhere the vellum to the cardstock. We embossed a piece of white paper to go on the outside piece, we were to have a colored cardstock base but mine happened to not be colored on the other side so I ended up adding a piece of pattern paper to the inside. Sorry I don't have any of the dimensions or anything, plus I think I messed up on some of the dimension, not sure.
Above I added a paperclip to the bottom so you could see what it looks like closed.
The next picture is it opening naturally, maybe needs a bit more bone folding.
This last picture is both sides opened, I took the picture before writing in my thanks for a friend sending flowers to my brothers funeral.
