Double Trouble with Creative Creases – ‘Kangaroo & Company’ Gatefold Double Box Card

Hi and welcome to AddINKtive Designs. Tonight I’m joining in with Creative Creases #76 and Double Trouble Paper Crafting Challenge #160.

I’ve made a Gatefold Double Box Card (my original design) featuring the Kangaroo & Company and Layering Leaves Stamp Sets (Stampin’ Up! ®) and Australiana Papers from Kaisercraft.

Creative Creases is partnering with Double Trouble Challenge for their 3rd Anniversary!

Creative Creases Challenge always has an ‘Anything Goes with a Fun Fold’ Theme and Double Trouble Challenge has the following guidelines for their 160th Challenge –

Thing 1: Trouble Maker

says, “In the Northern Hemisphere Hoodie-Hoo Day opens on February 20th, and it’s time once again to celebrate with Creative Creases on their Third Anniversary (February 2024) for their Anything Goes Fun Fold Challenges.

Thing 2Double Dare

says, “How fun it would be to send a Leap Day greeting card to a friend for that one extra day in the year? And make it very special by creating a fun-fold card that is linked to our partner, Creative Creases. Creative Creases Challenges are repetitive two-week challenges exclusively for Fun Folds.

Thing 3:  Twisted Sister

says, “WOW… Leap Day is the 29th of this month and we have never had an opportunity to use this day until this year and we won’t have this opportunity to observe for another four years.  So let’s take a leap into my optional twist and celebrate Hoppy Leap Day by featuring creatures that hop, skip, or leap.  

 

 I’ve created a Fun Fold, with a Leap Day optional twist! …

… a Gatefold Double Box Card featuring a Kangaroo with its Joey.
