peaches...

Today is my day over at the 365 Cards blog.

Pam's challenge is to design a card with a flap.
This is also Reader's Appreciation week...I'm teamed up with the most fabulous
Laurel Seabrook:

I adore Laurel's sense of style. She is a multi-talented paper artist that rocks both the card making and scrapping world! I love her use of colors, layers, and embellies...she has a contagious sense of enthusiasm!!!

I think I met her through 365 cards and have been following her for a bit...she is definitely a gal to watch! She has been picked up by design teams, been recognized on several blogs and been published!!

If you haven't popped over to her blog yet, make sure you take a peek:






I had a ton of fun with this one. I've been hoarding this Prima glittery paper called "Peaches". I originally saw it over on
Sparkle's fabbie blog. Peaches, isn't that funny? I wonder why they decided to name it that?

I designed my card as a tri-fold. I added a belly band to keep it all together. I've been enjoying sewing on my cards again. I think it gives cards a nice finishing touch. I even decorated the interior...for those that have been following me, it's something that I don't typically do...call me lazy..LOL...maybe I'll turn over a new leaf...maybe not :)

I hope that you'll join the 365 Cards challenge and create a card with a flap.


Thanks for stopping by!!!
