I have another awesome fun fold for you today! This is called a Peek A Boo card because as you open it, the sentiment peeks out of the window.

It’s time for another Festive Friday Challenge!  I love being a designer for Festive Friday and this week’s challenge #FF0040 is Senior Citizen’s Day (August 21) and/or Retro/ Vintage Style.   #festivefridaychallenge  I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D item and join us.

Stamp the “thanks” and “your friendship means the world to me” with Merry Merlot ink on Crumb Cake CS scraps.

Run the “thanks” through the “Big Shot with the second largest Stitched Shape circle. Run the “your friendship means the world to me” with the Sailing Home die.

Adhere the “thanks” circle near the top of the 3-3/4″ x 5-1/4″ Mossy Meadow CS.

Measure 1-1/8″ toward the center of the CS and put another mark. Draw a line from this center point to both corners opposite the Tear & Tape. Use Paper Snips and cut along the lines to “flag” the piece. Do the same things with both 3″ x 3″ pieces.

Remove the Tear & Tape and attach to the pink words DSP being careful it’s centered to cover the “thanks. Do the same thing on the other side with the other 3″ x 3” Merry Merlot.
