Simple Fancy Folds with a Big POW!

Sometimes you see a card that just stops you in your tracks – this was one of those:

Maui Stamper Dawn-O Fancy Fold Howl-O-WeenThe amazing and oh-so-talented Dawn Olchefske shared this design for a double gate fold card – with her impeccable instructions.  I chose the same paper but I’d just done a design with Among the Branches and wanted to try something different.

Welcome to the October RemARKable Blog Tour.  If you’re the type of person who does things sequentially, you’ve likely arrived from Tracy Langley’s blog.  If you’re a Frank Sinatra, I-Did-It-My-Way kind of person, well, I’m happy you’re here!

Maui Stamper Howl-O-Ween Boo-To-You Bundle RemARKable Tour*See the candy inside the package?  It’s called Toe Bod Butts.  The little white bit on the end is the Toe.  The orange part in the middle is the Bod(y).  And the yellow on the top is the Butt.  And you eat it in that order.

Anyone who tells you they’re called Candy Corn has succumbed to the wonders of Marketing.  Toe-Bod-Butts.  That’s what they are.

Maui Stamper Howl-O-Ween Boo-To-You Bundle RemARKable TourI absolutely love the Happy Haunting Designer Series paper (DSP).  This plaid is one of my favorites – if I lived where Fall was actually a season, I would have wool pants in this plaid.  Love love love it…so much that I think I have used up all but a few tiny scraps of the ENTIRE PACKAGE OF DSP.  Do you realize the enormity of that?  I’m a DSP Hoarder.  This is big, my friends, big.

You can put together a bunch of these watching a football game (ask me how I know) and have special treats for the kids in your son or daughter’s class, or your co-workers, or the football players for that matter.  And you might even get to sneak in a few Toe Bod Butts for yourself.  How fabulous would that be?
