Pocket Card...

There is a new 613 Ave C  challenge starting March 3:  "ATG/ optional Twist: "Make a Kinetic Card."  You have the month of March to show your creative talents!   For details of the challenge and for some very creative ideas from the DT's inspirational contributions -  click HERE!

I don't classify this card as a true kinetic card...  but it does require taking the hidden message panel from the center pocket.  The base card is made quite simply with a single sheet of CS - then each page, front and back cover of the "booklet" is covered with DP and decorated.  
Thank you to my friend, Edie Kort, for the template and instructions.   I tried to find a tutorial online but was unable to find this exact fold... I will need to get permission from Edie to share her version here.  These pictures below will give you the interior shots to get a sense of the folds, the pocket and the message panel.
Create wildly and color with abandon!

  12. I love how you mixed the various printed papers. It is not easy to take so many bold and busy elements and meld them into one harmonious creation...but you do it everytime! Great work, Ginny!
