Celebrate! :)..

Hi friends,
Today I have a joy-fold card to share with you all....I have made a fold -card after a long time ..I usually love working on either square or rectangle cards!...But this fold was quite fun and easy to do as well!..This card has been inspired by Shruti's card which she had shared on the Lulupu blog!...So here's a look at My card and some details..!!

                                                                   
                                                           

And this is how it looks when lying flat....

                                                                   

And this is how the card looks when it is half -opened...


                                                   
And the full view now...

                                             
And now here's a look at Shruti's card on which my card is based....
                 
                                                         

I just love Shruti's work a lot especially the way she uses her colors and her stamped and fussy-cut flowers look just awesome!...I have taken inspiration from the flowers and her color scheme and put my  own twist on it!...Hope its half as beautiful as Shruti's though!..I have made my flowers from the MFT die and colored it using distress inks.

    I am rather the same Hussena and tend to stick with square and rectangle cards, but I do like the folds of this one with the little pocket inside. And needless to say I love the colours.
