Good Morning all and welcome to a new week, i hope you enjoyed the weekend.
So today is the start of a new challenge over at Make My Monday
the theme this time is
PINK & GREY
I decided this would be the ideal time to use some double sided pink and grey papers i have. I found this idea on pinterest for taking circles and folding them to make a square. Turned out not quite as easy as it looked trying to get the folds square (so don't look too close😏).
First die circles from the double sided papers and score on 4 sides and fold upwards, these i arranged in a square onto a square of charcoal paper. White A5 cardblank, matted with white hammered card and charcoal grey paper. I added pink buttons threaded with thread where the squares joined.
Stamped greeting die cut into an oval and layered on a strip of pink paper.

What an unusual creation, Emma...but it certainly allows you to display those lovely two-sided papers! A super card... and I know what you mean about trying ideas that look simple, but turn out to be not quite so simple. Ha! ha!
