I have so many followers as AVID STAMPERS that love “fancy folds” projects. This project is called a CURVED FOLD CARD. When the tabs are fitted together the card creates a curved dimensional front that stands freely on a shelf or a mantle. My Newsletter Subscribers for March got a FREE PROJECT PDF.
I’ve also produced a video on how to use the Tulip Dies to build the tulips needed for this project. Check out the additional link below.
