Well hello there! Welcome to another Thursday at Squirrelville where it is DT day for the AS YOU LIKE IT CHALLENGE.
This time the challenge is SHAPE or FOLD (and you must tell us why you made your choice)
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
So I found the tutorial for this on SplitcoastStampers and it was really easy - of course, I added to it by punching the top border and then swearing because it wouldn't line up at the join, lol.
Stamped image is a Wryn from Tiddly Inks
Painted with Distress Inks (ReInkers) and Polychromos Pencils
Papers are all First Edition from the Paper Flowers collection
Sentiments and banner from Clearly Besotted
Oval dies by Tonic
Border punch is Martha Stewart
Here's a picture of her flat and ready for the envelope

You have two weeks to get folding or shaping, and remember to tell us why you made your choice
Hugs to all

It's amazing sweetie. I love your fancy fold and it's so clever. I really want to try it when I'm feeling brave! I love Wryn too, my favourite little lady!! The fun happy colours are lovely too, and fab colouring, esp on her hair. Gorgeous. xx
I am going to have to give a fol-ape a try. Love that it converts to a flat card. Wonderful design!
LURVE the shape and the punched top, such a pretty image shown off beautifully.
Loving your 'fol-ape' hon......... and that gorgeous Wryn you've used too! Such a clever fancy fold - and I love that it folds flat!
