Project #5 in the Ornate Garden Suite Bundle

I'm feeling successful, smart, and brilliant this week.  

I keep a notebook in which every night I mark down how many clues I answer correctly on Jeopardy!  If you follow my blog, you know I aim to be on the show.  My notebook is part of my practice.  On an average night, I get about 25 of the 61 clues correct.  Not so hot.

But it's college tournament time!  My average has gone up to almost 40 correctly answered clues!  If I can shave off 23 years, I'm set.  Isn't that always the story, though?  If we could only combine youth and wisdom....

How about beauty and a fun fold, though?  We can do that!

This pocket card with overlapping front folds is Project #5 in my Ornate Garden Mega Tutorial Bundle (see below).  A belly band adds a fancy touch that gives you a surface to add embellishment, like the ribbon and stamped flowers.  The pocket card is layered Ornate Layers die-cuts that slide out of the card base.  Isn't it pretty?  You could tuck a gift card or check in there, too, so this is a beautiful card to make for weddings.

Through-out April, I'm posting at least 12 projects made with the Ornate Garden Suite.
