My card to-day was really a trial piece, as whilst watching the Hougie Board demo this week, I liked the idea, so really this is my take on the gatefold card. The Card and BP were both from my snippet box, I think the papers were from Making Cards some time ago. The beautiful lavender rose images were from Craftsuprint, again I've had them a long while too, when all my cards were decoupage. Now I'd like to try another one and make a few changes. Sadly I don't have a Hougie, but rely on my ever faithful Martha Stewart board, so I had to adjust the sizes a little as my MS is in inches. Hope you like my take on this and maybe you have even more ideas to share. I hope those of you that attended Harrogate fair had a great time and got lots of new goodies to play with. Enjoy your week-end. Hugs Rita xxx
