This fortnight's challenge theme is to showcase a project using 
your Favourite Card Shape or Fold (& why).

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

Here are the beautiful creations made by our Design Team to get your mojo flowing:

Annette

I love this Go Kreate Lables die; 
the largest of the set makes a beautifully shaped card.


I also like tent-fold cards the best, I'm not sure why, 
but I find them much easier to photograph than side-folds!

Samantha

This was a difficult one of me because I nearly always make square cards and love them
but this is also a card shape I love too.  It's very simple; you just trim off about 2 inches from the end of the card front, and add your image layer so it hangs over.

Carol

I love this shaped card, not sure what its called. 
I love it cause there's plenty of squares to dress up or down.

Mojca

I just love easel cards, especially this kind of twisted one. They are so unique and special.

Sarah

Stepper cards are my favourite "alternative" card shape/fold. I love that you can dress them up as I have done here. I usually make my own but on this occasion I discovered a ready made card blank that was a little bigger than I'd normally make and suited the sponsor's image perfectly!!

Suzette

I love shape cards as they are different from your everyday cards plus they lend themselves to all different embellishments

Wilma

An easel card is my favourite card shape. I must confess I don't use it very often, because I only use it for very special occasions or persons. It is easy to make and the result is always special. 

So now it's over to you.
We hope you will join in our challenge, show us your style and 
showcase your Favourite Card Shape or Fold (& why).

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite.

Good luck, and happy crafting.
Hugs from the AYLI girls.
