Challenge #40 Joy Fold Card

Wow, what great entries we had last week! Congratulations to our winner Melissa with her wonderful creation.
 Well, I am a little sad this week because this is the last challenge sponsored by this DT. Thank you Lynne, Rhonda and Terri for all of your help and your wonderful inspirations for the past 6 months.
For this DT's last challenge we would like to see you make a Joy Fold Card. If this is your first Joy Fold Card then you will just love making one. Here is a tutorial that I found to be very helpful. Remember to use a Michelle Perkett image somewhere on your creation. If you don't have one of Michelle's images you can find a freebie here or visit Michelle's Etsy Store to purchase one of her beautiful digital images. The winner will be selected randomly and will receive a $10.00 voucher to be used at Michelle's Etsy Store.
Now let's take a look at the DT inspirations...
Rhonda created this beautiful card using Michelle's Dream Dragonfly image.


Terri made this adorable card and used Michelle's image called Olive.

Pattie (that's me) made this pretty card and I used Michelle's Amore Fairy. I am sending it to my daughter for her birthday...


Lynne created this beautiful card and used Michelle's Princess Oceana as her image. Lynne sprained her wrist and managed to get this challenge done too. Hope you feel better Lynne.

This challenge starts now and ends on Monday August 2nd at 5PM CDT. Now it is your turn so let's see all of your wonderful creations and please make sure you visit the DT's blogs and comment on their inspirations.

Thank You,
