Tonight I'm posting a card made by Shelly Smarzik. She featured me on her blog last Monday and I wanted to feature her on my blog so she sent a picture of this great card for me to share. You can click on the link to her blog at the end of the post and see some of her other work. I love the card she posted Wednesday, I really need that stamp set!

As far as the card posted here, it is called a tri-fold card. It is a clever fold and actually pretty easy. I think Shelly did a great job with it and the Fifth Avenue Flowers stamp set she used is a beautiful set that I haven't broken down and bought yet. That is one of the great things about featuring other Stampin' Up artists on your blog, they have stamp sets I don't have so you get to see more of what you can do with different sets. I love the way Shelly shaded and highlighted the flowers on her card. Very nice. I was planning to do a card fold like this with the Choo Choo set that I am using Monday for the blog tour so I will post a tutorial of how to do the fold when I get it made. Now, on to Shelly's intro:

Hi,
My name is Shelly Smarzik. I live in Rock Hill, SC where I am married to my wonderful husband of 20 years! We have two boys 12 and 10 years old. I have been stamping for 14 years but just celebrated my 6 year anniversary as a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator this month! Over the years my stamping style has changed but my love for Stampin' Up! has not! I am always learning new techniques and love to share them with "my girls" in my stamp club. And now, I am sharing them with anyone who visits my blog as well! I recently started doing stamping video's and am having a lot of fun with those. You can check them out on youtube by doing a search for stampmomx2sc.
I would like to thank Elaine for featuring me on her blog. It is an honor! Until next time... GO GET YOUR FINGERS INKY!
Shelly
