I received the above, tri-fold stationary piece with a note from a neighbor - and it inspired this:
My neighbor's notecard unfolded like this:
I cut a patterned-one-side-solid-the-other-side piece of cardstock to 10.5-inches in width and 5-inches in height - scored at every 3.5-inch interval:
American Crafts Blue Skies patterned cardstock was used for my interpretation - finished, folded size measures 3.5-inches x 5-inches. Martha border punch for the side. Memory Box PoppyStamps meadow leaf die used. Happy Sunday!

















Oh Cindy this card is beautiful. So very elegant - it can be used for so many occasions. I just love those Memory Box dies too.

What a beautiful card. I love the tri-fold. I have that die but haven't used it yet. I think it is time to get it out of the drawer. Thanks for always inspiring.

You knocked this out of the ballpark! The original was nice, but yours is so classy and beautiful. Thanks for sharing and reminding me to look around the house for some inspiration.

Isn't that a neat little trick! Your card is much better than the store bought:) I haven't seen that memory box die before, but it's beautiful! And I love the colors and pp you used!
