My First Trifold Card

Oh My Goodness! You have no idea how excited I am that I have finally taken a clear picture of my project. I have been struggling like you can't believe with fuzzy pictures. I think the trick for my camera is it has to be in a good mood; not too early in the day, and not to late into the evening. I have to talk nice to it, and then it will produce something I can be happy with. Now if I can figure out the paint part of adding the SU and my name part, I am half way to rocket scientist. So far I have been able to add it to the photo but you have to be a knat to be able to read it. I haven't figured out how to change the font size without messing up the picture. So I'll take this one step at a time. I'm tellin you, I can't believe how amazed at myself I am right now.

Alright, this card is my first try at the tri-fold cards I have admired in blogland. I did have one boo boo on my first try with the angles of the folds. Guess who ended up with a V-fold pocket card because she scored one side of the card the wrong angle. Oh well I had been wanting to make one of those cards too. I am now hooked on these cute and oh so simple cards. This card was made for a swap I signed up for in my on-line group Utah Divas International (Email me if you are a SU Demo and are interested) that is for Mother's Day cards. I can't wait to see what comes back. I used all Stampin Up! products for this card. Here's my recipe: C/S - Tempting Turquoise, Pretty in Pink, Certainly Celery, Petals & Paisleys DP; Ink - Pretty in Pink; Stamps - Alphadots; Accessories: Daisy Punch, Spring Bouquet Flower punch, 1/2" circle punch, white grosgrain ribbon, and soft subtles deco brads.

I can't wait to get out and take some more pictures to post. Look out!
