Fun fold card - Mini Miura fold.

 Well I'm finally back to share a card.   It's been a hard week.  My Gastro lasted till Wednesday... and I've been feeling a bit washed out since.  I did manage to get my technique challenge card for my local swap group.   Val set the challenge - a Mini Miura fold card.... I'd never heard of this fun fold, luckily Val gave us a link to a You Tube video by Sam Calcott (here


and here is my card 


I chose some gorgeous patterned paper which I used to make my focal images.  I added a sentiment to the middle portion of the card.   It was hard to get a good photo of all the folds and angles.  

I did enjoy this and also managed another card made over the weekend... for the September CCC - so won't be able to share until next month.   My card is on it's way to the US.  And I did have a play with my hotfoil machine yesterday and two Altenew hotfoil plates.... the Exquisite Marble plate and the flowers from the Linear Lines - Tropical Garden flowers.  And now a few background marble panels and a pile of foiled flowers to use.  

Thanks for stopping by.
