10/15/25 - Sparkle Challenge #193 Leaves & Pumpkins - Tractor & Co fun fold card.

Today at Sparkle Challenge we are making Autumn Leaves/Pumpkins card and this is what I came up with. I used one of my favorite Online Exculsive bundle – Tractor & Co for this. There are lots of Fall/Winter images that you will be set for the rest of the year. I love the dies that you can use to build many colors of tracors. I decided to make it into a masucline card with a really awesome unique fold template I saw from a short YouTube video from The West Coast Papercrafter (instruction below) and wanted to try, so here it is. The inside actually fold up to have a stand where you can attached any images. I hope you will give this fold a try and join us at the challenge.
