CTMH - Folded Corner Pop-Up Flowers/Butterflies Card - CTMH Stitched Flowers, Layered Butterflies

Saw what was called a Folded Corner Pop-Up Card, watched a video and then tried to make and surprisingly I was able to make it in one try. I do not recall the person who made the card I saw or her video but if you google 'Folded Corner Pop-Up Card' you can find it.

Used all CTMH items and after today, Apr 30, 2024, CTMH is no longer. Mailed this card to thank my CTMH upline for her friendship and will continue to keep in touch with her online.

CTMH: cardstock/paper - greens, purples, white, yellow, Kraft
