Looks like all that pruning and magazine clipping has worked! I felt inspired by one of the examples I scrapped today when doing this week's card dare.
The challenge was to make a card that featured folds, and here we have it:
That's it flat on the scanner, obviously looks a bit nicer when it's stood up...
Lots of nice KI, now I just need to find someone with a birthday, soonish!
So I'll have to pop to a stationery shop for a nice ring file for my style file, unless anyone can suggest an online stockist of really trendy stationery? ;o)
wow that is gorgeous, I love it.

That is such a fabby card Nat. And you have inspired me to start the Layout Journal that I covered ages ago. Had fun with my scissors pen and glue last night. Hope I manage to make something as greatas your card!

Wow - love the bright and cheery colours and the pretty sparkles! This would look great on my mantel piece, actually, but I am sure you will find someone with a birthday before mine - it isn't till June! Lol!

Wow, thanks for all the comments! :oO
I have to say it is really quite pretty in rl - I think it's the KI - I could never get tired of looking at nice KI eye candy! And I must confess, it's still sat on my desk hehe...
Think I shall try my hand at more of this style of card in future, as it's actually quite easy once you know what to do.
And Leisa, it's virtually got your name on it! Have a very happy birthday. :oD

This is gorgeous.
I can't believe it though - I've come on here to have a look at the DCM links cards and find yours - with the same fold I've just been using to make a card this afternoon. spoooooky
