Well the Jury Duty that I was chosen for last week did not happen. It seems like if it snows, very little, they take the opportunity to cancel every thing around this area of Georgia.
The card I have posted today is a card that I saw a couple of years ago on a blog. I saved the instructions, and finally got around to using them. The blog that I saw the instructions was "Stampowl". She gives very clear instructions on the assembly of the card, so, I won't go into a lot of detail for the card. Other that my impressions of the card.
Here are the pictures of the card;
"Magnolia Pyramid Card"
And here is a side view;
It's hard to see on the picture , but on the right side of the pink triangles is a small slit. This slit allowes the card to be assembled.
Here is a close up of the Magnolia stamp used to decorate the pyramid.
The card is very simple to make and makes a nice gift for the recipient to sit on his or her desk. The pyramid when folded flat will fit in a standard card envelope. So, no extra postage.
Give the Pyramid card a try, you will like the results.
Remember I love to hear your comments, and they are always welcome.
Have a GREAT DAY!!!

Darling card Bob and thanks for the link, the folding looks challenging but I'm sure once I get going I can figure it out. Love your coloring as usual.

Hi Bob!
Oh what a great shape! Love the fact that it will sit so nicely and be seen easily.
It is a new shape to me and I really like it.
Your colouring as always is just perfect. Great papers too!

I have never seen a pyramid card before, this is a wonderful card, I love the stamp as well.

Wow! That is an awesome card, Bob! I love it! LOL... about the snow! Here in WI it has to snow 2 to 3 feet in a day before anything gets canceled! Unless it is a big ice storm, then things get canceled faster! I will have to give this card a try! I hope one day when you are not to busy that you will stop by my blog also! Have a great week! Happy Creating! Sara

Hi Bob!
Gosh! I haven't seen one of these folds for a long time. You have done a super job of making it. I have never made one but just might give it a go.
Love your coloring too.
We don't have snow here in Queensland Australia.
We have major flooding at the moment.

What a unique card, Bob. I will have to try this, along with the cuttlebug emboss you used. Scenics would be great in one of those.

Very interesting card. Love that it's far from the norm. Great share.

I found your card so intriguing Bob! I looked up the link you gave us (thank you so much) and I tried a couple of them myself this afternoon. You did this card justice with your sweet Tilda...
