Allsorts challenge week 425 -Fancy Folds

Good Morning and here we are with another Allsorts challenge which has been chosen by the very talented Helene and her theme is Fancy Folds.

This week we are being sponsored by Crafty Ribbons
and we have a lovely bumper bundle of ribbons for our prize this week.

Most of the DT have used card shapes as their fancy folds but I have used one for the design paper.
 I have used what is know as the Drapers Fold. best used with double sided paper.

The background paper is from a pad from a year or so ago, Frozen
The snowflake card is Kanban 
Snowflakes - Spellbinder cut from glitter card.
Sentiment- Craftwork Cards.
Please do pop over to the challenge blog to see the lovely creations from my team mates.
Thank you all for popping by.
