{SS} #214: Quarter Fold Card

Good morning!!  Happy Saturday too!
Today, I am up to share my creation with you for this weeks challenge over at SweetStamps.
This week it's: Technique Spotlight: Quarter Fold Card
I have personally never seen or even heard of this type of card before, but it seemed interesting and even fun to try.  You can find a tutorial HERE
This is what my card looks like completed and folded!!  
The fun comes to life when you open it.  :)
The tutorial suggested 4 squares, but I opted for cutting the patterned paper the length and width of the card, since I knew I was going to be doing a lot of layering. 
This is what the card looks like once it is all opened up.
The sentiment is from the Cute As A Bunny stamp set.
This is what the outer layers of the card looks like.  This was the only way I could capture how cute this card really is!!
Finally here is that cute mocha bunny all colored up and sitting on that fence surrounded by those flowers!!  I really love this set...can you tell!!!  :)  Well I hope you will give this technique a try if you haven't already joined us this week.  The possibilities are endless.

Here are the product I used on my card: 


I would like to share my card in the following challenges:
Brown Sugar #139
Dragon Liar Designs
Crafts 4 Eternity #219
Crafts For The Craic #14
(Flowers, Sentiment Image, More than 2 layers and Die Cut)

Hugs.

    Wow! That is awesome, there's so much detail in this card - you did a lot of work and it turned out perfectly. I made one of those kinds of cards a long time ago and always had trouble closing it back up :-)

      Thanks Jackie!!! I always seem to go all out when I try a new technique....Not sure why!! LOL!! Closing the card is a bit difficult....It doesn't slide into place easily, but it sure was fun to make!! :)
