Making Babushka Doll Cards - by Stamping T




Challenge #228 grp
This week the challenge for the Late Night Stampers Group is all about ‘Fun Fancy Folds’ for your cards.  I love trying out new and interesting folding techniques for cards but was having difficulty finding something to share for the challenge that I hadn’t already done and really was in the mood to create something I hadn’t done before.  So I will spare you the story of how I eventually ended up making these Babushka Doll fold out cards … let’s just say I was looking for some Christmas inspiration on line and this is were my head ended up!  Anyway, here is the first little set of girls made using Bermuda Bay cardstock ….
