My first Bifold Card
Hello, everyone! Today I'm sharing a Bifold Card! This is the first time I've made one! If you are familiar with my blog, then you will know I do not make many fancy fold cards because I struggle with them, and this was no exception! However, I was inspired by Mrs. A's Butterfly Challenge, whose theme is Spin the Butterfly Wheel with B for Bifold. Mrs. A's inspiration cards were so pretty, and she provided a lovely tutorial, so I had to try it! I probably will not make this fold again, but I am happy with how it turned out.

Wow Kitty, your first bifold card came out just fabulous!!! I'm really impressed by the beautiful feel it has! I think it's just perfect for a male, even if there are the butterflies! And them look gorgeous with those papers, as well the sentiment inside!! Love the patterned papers you used and the touch of the black gems!! Well done!!
