Do you like cards that are a little different to the norm? Fun folds are perfect for something a little different, and I have a great fold today.... a swing easel card.
Now I must say I hadn't seen this design before when I was cruising Pinterest, it took a while for me to work out what was going on with the mechanism, then I found a tutorial by Amanda Bates - I decided to adapt the design to utilise the Frosted Frame Dies dies and be a normal card size... things didn't go 100% to plan, but I'm still happy with the finished card considering it was my first time even trying this fun fold.
I can't get enough of the Feels Like Frost DSP, especially when I add Stampin' Ice, it makes me happy to see all the glitter and bling.
Can you also see that I double stamped the feature element? I used the Stamparatus, firstly stamping with delicata Silver, then moving the card stock a little and restamping with Gorgeous Grape.
