CWC (9/6/11) Diamond Fold Card



Hi Everyone,
I know I'm a day late with my Monday video, but I wanted to work on something a little different this week. I was inspired by Kristina Werner's videos to try a different style of folded cards and went with the diamond fold card. I've seen this style card out there lots and never tried it until yesterday. I really enjoyed trying something  different than the usual A2 card...

Here is a video on how to fold this style card

Thats all for today. Have a great Tuesday :)
Hugs,
