Now on to our Fancy Fold!! This is the outside of the card.
Our Fancy Fold card for the month, I am calling it a Double Fold. I received the card idea from my good friend, Janet Forton. Jan and I met years ago when we ended up in the same apartment together while going to college. We have been in touch on and off through the years but were both amazed when we connected again that we both like to stamp and are Stampin' Up! Demonstrators!! How cool is that?!!
