my first joy-fold card

Hi there!

Have you ever heard of a joy-fold card? Maybe you have, maybe you haven't. I'm on the side that hadn't... until I decided to play along with this week's Crazy 4 Challenges challenge.

I watched this You Tube video to get the idea and here's my card...

And here's the view from the side to see that it's actually a joy-fold card.

supplies: January 2011 TE Key Ingredients kit; sentiment stamp: SU; image: WS Chelsea (The Greeting Farm); sentiment: SU!; inks: Pixie Pink (SU!), tuxedo black (Memento); other: Nestabilities, dimensionals

The card was actually fairly simple and quick to make! And that totally surprised me since it looked like it was more complicated.

I'm actually a huge fan of this type of folded card.

I foresee making a bunch more of these in my future. :)
