5/18/26 - Make My Monday #278 Flower - Fern & Floral Bundle

Happy Monday with MMM (Say it with Flower) - Today's card is an easy flip fun fold using Ferns & Floral Bundle. I saved an old tutorial from few years ago - Create with Terri Gaines. I stamped the flower image and butterflies and colored them both in with Markers. The white background piece is embossed to give it some texture. Can you spot the flower on the main focal image as well as the DSP? Beautiful I say! Hope you can join us at the challenge. 


Cardbase - 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" - just a quarter sheet
Flap - 3 1/4" x 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
White - 4" x 5 1/4"

Today our main focus at Cardz 4 Galz are Circles and I made a unique shape fun fold with a Circle as a major focal point. I used May 2026 sheetload from Call Me Crafty Al for this, and just make one card and modify the measurement. I used the Boho Vibes bundle from the last catalog. Sadly my rainbow shaped didn't come out the way that I would like it to be. Hope you enjoyed this card and be sure to join us at the challenge.

DSP for each - 4" x 1", 4" x 3/4", and 4" x 1 1/2"
