I was sorting through some old punches and thought I’d try this card. It’s a 3 x 8 card and you can make an envelope for it using the Envelope Punch Board. The colors from left to right are Rich Razzleberry, Wisteria Wonder, Bermuda Bay, Tempting Turquoise, Cucumber Crush, Pear Pizazz , Daffodil Delight, Tangerine Tango, and Real Red. I drew a straight line across the card stock and lined them up. That’s it! Now to search through the rest of my punches and see which other ones will work with this style card! Try it! Hugs, Fran

Photo Fun
It’s challenge time for Karen Burniston’s Design Challenge team and this month’s challenge is photos on Accordion dies! I chose pictures from a very trip to Universal Studios and kept my Oval Accordion neutral in Basic Gray and Smokey Slate so I could add lots of fun colors and accents.
To begin my album I embossed Smokey Slate with one of Karen’s new embossing folders, added my Basic Gray strip across the middle and then die cut all the Oval Accordion Album pages. On the front I added lots of stars, arrows and ribbons.
Can you see the lines of stars going from page to page? Those are little stars glued to fishing line!
I tied Melon Mambo and Crushed Curry ribbon in the folds and added bits of Bermuda Bay ribbon to that.
The talk bubble in this photo was actually in the picture – it just didn’t fit – so I fussy cut it and added it to the top. (One of those “I can make it fit” moments!) I backed all the accordions with Basic Gray.
Supplies
Card stock – Basic Gray, Smokey Slate, Bermuda Bay, Melon Mambo, Crushed Curry, Silver Glimmer paper
Etc – Oval Accordion die, Itty Bitty star punch, What’s Up punch, MS star border punch, fishing line, Crushed Curry ribbon, Melon Mambo ribbon, Bermuda Bay ribbon, circle punch
Lots of fun going on here!
Keep in mind that my blog is being moved and things might look a bit different until it’s finished! Hugs, Fran
