Origami Diamond fold card

I made this card using the instructions I found here
It's called an Origami Diamond fold...
My designer paper is from Stampin' Up, and I cut out my frames with Spellbinder dies...
Classic Squares large, Big Scalloped Squares Large, and the Fleur De Lis Squares die.
I stopped buying too many embossing folders because I feel I pretty much have what I need...
However, I don't think I could EVER have too many Spellbinders dies...I seem to like them ALL!
I just added a prima flower and bow...

Thank you for all your good thoughts and prayers.
We are just fine, and we were quite fortunate to come through that scary storm okay.
Our lights kept flickering on and off, but we only lost power for a very short time.
That wind was so LOUD!  I don't think I ever heard it that loud before...
I am praying for all those who weren't as fortunate as we were...So difficult to see it on TV.

  1. This is beautiful, and thanks for the link! I'd never seen one of these before! A stamper can never have too many dies or embossing folders, or punches, or......etc, etc, etc :)

  2. This is beautiful Jill. It looks like a really fun card to make!

    I'm glad to hear you are okay, I was wondering about you. The wind was really loud and scary here too, but we were lucky as well.

    It's so terrible for those who took direct hits from either the winds or waves.

    I know what you mean by never having too many dies. It seems like every few weeks I see more must-have dies. I just wish my addiction didn't spread over to stamps, markers, and all the other things we use!

  3. Just beautiful, Jill! I'll have to try out that technique!
    Thank you for your well wishes, I'm over the moon right now!
    I agree about the dies, I think I buy at about a 5 to 1 ratio, 5 dies to 1 embossing folder, lol!
    Glad to hear you are all safe there! Blessings! Kathy
