Pleated cards provide a unique opportunity to shine. They have a knack for grabbing attention and leaving a lasting impression.
Can you really make this just by folding paper? Yes!
Notice how the pleated paper changes the look of the pattern on it. This beautiful card uses the Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper with the Paper Butterfly Accents.
For a card for a child, how adorable is this? What a fun card this would be to add a book being given as a gift. This is made with the Just Kiddin’ Designer Series Paper.
For a colorful strawberry card, this Sunny Days Designer Series Paper (a free choice with a $50 order during Sale-a-bration in January and February) is perfect.
One more – a lavender floral card using the Delightfully Eclectic Designer Series Paper.
