Multi-Fold Card For Any Occasion Using Cricut Artiste Cartridge

Hello to everyone who reads this blog post.  I am happy to be able to show you another creation of mine using the Cricut Artiste Cartridge.  I completed this about a month ago before vacation; but haven't had time to do the post for it.  I struggled with making this card.  I saw this several months ago and really wanted to try it; but it was harder than I thought it would be.  Try it for fun the first time with paper that you don't mind practicing with. 

 

I found the tutorial for this card posted by Marianne at http://stampartic.blogspot.com/2010/11/folding-card-tutorial.html.  It can be used for any occasion.  I plan to try it again sometime when I have more time.  I hope you enjoy this card.  I had a challenge with the heart border on the outside as it tore very easily.  I purchased a couple others to try for the next time.  Scroll down for a copy of the two from the tutorial.  I think they look so elegant.
