Make it Monday - Expanding Concertina Card - 17.8.2026

Today we made a real WOW fun fold card called the  "Expanding Concertina Card".

I showcased some new products that are coming on the 1st September in the Sept - Dec catalogue. 

Mosaic Tiled Suite is a beautiful suite collection, I think the square dies are the hero of this new beautiful suite.  I added some butterflies from the Fern & Flora bundle. 

This particular fold can be made with any products and papers and each time you get a completely different look.
