The Drapery Fold (a.k.a Curtain Fold) Card looks complicated but it’s so simple to make. The Favored Flowers Designer Series Paper is gorgeous and perfect for this design. You can fold the paper one way with the reverse side peeking through or fold it the other way if you don’t want to show the reverse side.
I want to show you one more step to take your Drapery Fold to the next level with a Tie-Back Drapery Fun Fold

Kristina,
I wish I had seen this video before I made Easter cards for our church’s homebound. I used this stamp set, so they turned out well, but I like yours much better. I plan to make this card for our priests, deacon, and seminarian. Well, I will make one first and see if mine turns out half as good as yours. Thank you.
You ministers will be very grateful. Know their parishioners are thinking of them gives them the encouragement to keep fighting the good fight.
Bless you.
