I was watching Debbie Moore on Create & Craft yesterday (as you do) and she made a 'staggered' tri-fold card. Hers ended up as sort of a DL but I wanted to make a C5 card so I worked out some measurements using a piece of A3 card cut to 16" in length. I scored it at 2,4,7 & 10 inches, leaving a 6" panel for the back of the card. I then trimmed the folded card down to 8" high. The card was then decorated with gold mirri and Forever Friends 'Black & Gold' A4 Dovecraft papers. The couple image was cut from black glittercard and adhered over a gold heart to a shaped panel, with foam pads. The initials on the small shaped panel are my sister Valerie and her hubby Steve's, for 'tis their anniversary today! Happy Anniversary!!

'Anniversary' was cut from more black glittercard, and 'Happy' was cut from gold mirri. Both elements were adhered flat to a third panel along with three punched hearts. I punched some flowers from gold mirri, added black centres to the larger flowers along with gold pearls, and black pearls to the smaller flowers. They were then arranged around the couple image on the centre panel. A ribbon trim and a bow to the smallest panel completes the card.
Carts used:
Couple and large heart- Sweethearts
V & S- Winter Woodland
'Happy'- Wild Card
'Anniversary'- Designer's Calendar
All shaped panels & mats- Forever Young
Thanks for dropping by on this rainy Saturday morning!
