Bay Window Card featuring Playing in the Rain Collection

 Recently the Bay Window card has popped up all over YouTube.  This fun fold was very popular a few years back.

After looking at several tutorials I was able to come up with a Bay Window version that feels more equal from side to side.

I would hope that you would give this one a try.  It really is an easy fun fold. You could pop these out one after the other which would be a great way to make a set of cards as a gift for a friend or family member.

Lighting the Way Bundle

Who doesn't remember a warm summer night, sitting on the porch, watching lightening bugs light up the darkness as it falls over the day.

Looking back, this was one of my most cherished memories.  I loved the warmth of the summer evenings and running throughout the yard catching the fireflies.  I would catch as many as possible and put them in a mayonnaise jar with a lid which had holes in it to provide air to my little collection of living lights.

This bundle "Lighting the Way" brings back all the memories of a time that has long passed away. But yet, even now, I delight when I see a lightening bug aka firefly.

You may ask yourself, just what is a sketch in card-making?  Let me explain it simply.  It is a layout using certain elements with the freedom to arrange them in anyway you desire.

These can be fun to work with because it gives you somewhat of a design and you just add your own creativity to the design with how you choose DSP, Stamp Sets, dies, gems, etc.
