Card/Paper: Chocolate Chip, Ruby Red, Old Olive card with Holiday Treasures designer paper
Ink: Chocolate chip standard cartridge
Stamps: Baroque Border Standard Wheel
Other: Flowers, leaves and brad from Hot off the Press
Card Size: 15cm x 10.5cm (approx 4" x 6")

Method:
This card was made using the Challenge pack provided by Joanne, our Stampin Up host. Feel free to go look at some of her wonderful samples here or join Stamper's Ten.

I used the SU Standard Wheel to create a border on two of the sides of the card and then created an accent as follow:

Waterfall Pocket Fold:
Fold a 3" square of double sided designer paper on half, side to side.
Fold it again, bottom to top.
Turn the folded square on point so the open edges are on top.
Fold down the first layer so it ends ¼” above the bottom point.
Fold down the second layer ¼” above the first layer.
Fold down the third layer ¼” above the second layer.
Do not fold the last layer.

I attached this to the card and added my leaves and flower to the pocket and did soem matting and layering for more detail.

Hope you like it.

I used my Sakura pen to draw a border around my stamped image and message. I added 3 brads to the main image and layered it on the Always Artichoke card stock. I then traced the daimond lattice from my template using a pencil and cut it with a craft knife, before folding over to show that patterned paper on the back. I highlighted the edges of the lattice cut with my Sakura pen and mounted it on Always Artichole. I went round the edges of the patterned paper with my Sakura pen and mounted it on my white base card.
