Voucher Wallet

I created this wallet for a Voucher I used cream card placed the voucher onto the card and using a creasing board embossed double lines were I wanted the wallet to fold corner round scissors for the corners of the flap also my crafters companion ultimate to add the fancy edge on the flap. I decorated the flap with tapestry stamps ( Garden of Bee Balm) I have not used these in a while and decided to play I finished with a little glitter and a Brown piece of tape which made a bow at one end and used it as a wrap around

Fancy Spellbinder

Another fancy fold concept from Sue Wilson. I used my new dies "Wings of Hope", Samantha Walker's "Antique Frames and Accents" , "Damask Accents" and a Papermania Sister stamp.
I decided to create a tone on tone card using to types of cream card one matt and one pearlised.
The tutorial for the fancy fold is on Sue Wilson's Blog "Parti crafts" and is list on the right side of my blog. I cut the border and liked the negative pieces that i also used both side and raised the actual border slightly as you

can use little bitty foam squares to stick it down. I coloured the butterfly while it was still in the die with Antique linen distress ink and it just gave a slight shadow effect. The sister stamp I used Adirondack Woodlands ink its a rainbow ink pad with four beautiful earth tones I used the brown and peachy colour I then cut it out sprayed it with adhesive and covered it with crystal glitter I stamped the greeting using the same Adirondack ink to the centre panel. and finished with Cosmic Shimmer PVA dark bronze and Olympic gold.
Thanks

The Brother Button I used the same materials and the punch added text.
