Fancy Fold Friday - Tutorial for Swing Easel Card

 Remember this Timeless Elegance card shared a couple of weeks ago. 

Well a remake was in order for this week's classes using the Pretty Petals papers (which - did I tell you - are on Bonus Deals this week - just over £5 for 48 sheets!! Nice papers... Nice price!!)

And it went down very well.... apart from me not saying LIFT loud enough!!! Oops...but we got there in the end....

Couple of closed views

And here you go - a cut and score tutorial to make one of these for yourself from 12 x 12 card... Please feel free to share any make using this tutorial with me - you can decide whether you would like me to feature here on The Craft Spa blog!! Or not!
