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 have always loved this shape of card which I create using my Go Kreate labels die. I usually like to team it with a circle shaped image too because I think it accentuates the lovely curved shape of the card base.

Samantha

 If it's not square then the shape I would always go for first is round,
why? I love that I can interlock other circles into it and its quick and easy to die cut.
and to stop it from rolling away I just snip a slither off the bottom.

Brenda

My favorite has to be shaped cards.  I love all the Go Create dies that I see my teamies using.  Unfortunately I have not been able to my hands on any...yet.  I love the shapes you can get using the larger Spellbinders dies.  I cut the so the die is hanging over the folded edge as I have done for my card today.  I love being able to have my craft goodies serve double duty.



Elaine

I do like to play with new shapes of card. This is one of my favourite styles for the girly look. 

Kat

I really love making fancy folded or shaped cards but my favourite is the criss cross card because I think it looks so very special and it's fun to have a tag inside that you can pull out.

Lori

I came across this cool design of a card - I know it's probably not in either category of card "shape" or "fold" but it's really cool and I wanted to share it with you all....

Lorraine

I like making square cards but that's a little boring so once in a while I spice it up and make these...  a tri-fold shutter card. There are so many panels to decorate and embellish, although I have kept this one fairly plain, but I think they are very interesting and pretty to look at.

Sarah

I love a stepper card, it's still flat enough for posting and the dimension is fabulous. It's also a base that can be dressed up or down.

Squirrel

It was a tussle whether to do a fold or a shape, and ended up combining the two into a "fol-ape".  I think it qualifies more as a fold though.  I love to see both, they always make cards feel more special, I'm just not very good at thinking outside the square

Wilma
I love easel cards. They are more than just a card.

So now it's over to you.
We hope you will join in our challenge, show us your style and 
showcase your Favourite of our options.

You MUST explain WHY it is your favourite to win the prize.

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