So my original was inspired by a lovely Australian demo Jenny Hayward who used the Flirty Flamingo cardstock and inked the folder using a dark pink…or at least I thought that was where I had seen it…when I went to find her project..I couldn’t find it! Anyway, she has some lovely projects so go have a look anyway.
The first version used Lovely Lipstick and Flirty Flamingo…I am never 100% sure of this combo..what do you think? I guess it is closer to the traditional good luck colour of red. And I didn’t say in the video, but I coloured the bottom of the tassel using my Dark Lovely Lipstick Blend. Anyway I then decided to tone it down to soft pink and gray – so out came the lovely Petal Pink and Smoky Slate and a perfect match…the tassel is already coloured.
I still can’t find my light Pool Party Blend (Doh!) so I had to use the Light Balmy Blue…still I think it works …and I do love the tassel that is already coloured! The great thing about this Fancy Fold is that is is really easy 🙂

Thanks for the inspiration Heidi, I had to try this card fold, I decided to use Poppy Parade card base and Bermuda Bay for my colour combo. Lyn
Fabulous! Lovely to see your creation
So clever. Enjoyed the video, but what did you do with the lanterns?
I added them to the bottom of the tab! Apologies – memory card ran out!
