My Sheri Crafts - Challenge #91

The challenge at My Sheri Crafts this time is going to be fun! It's called back and forth. What exactly does that mean? We want you to have an accordion or fan fold as one of the elements on your project. It can be simply a strip, rosette, fan or whatever you can imagine! I decided to go with a fan and used paper from the brand spankin' new La Belle Vie paper pack from CTMH. I cut a 2 1/2 strip the full length of the paper and then used my Martha Stewart edge punch on the edge. I then used my Martha Stewart scoring board and scored every third space (can you tell I like her products?). I then punched a hole on the bottom and ran a piece of waxy flax thru to make it stay open like a fan. I added a couple of photo clips with opaque gems. I gathered some black webbing (thank you Darla) and added to my card with some pearls. All papers are CTMH. So get our those scoring boards and show us what you got! Jump on over to My Sheri Crafts. Check out what the Design Team has created and submit your project. You could be our next guest designer! The DT loves to give love to all our participants, so please help us by turning off word verification.
