  3rd Charming Duck Pond Post This card is a modified gate-fold card as the left front is just 1 1/4". I love how you can use most of the page of the 6" by 6" piece of DSP scenery to make this card. Sometimes I use the back side for the little pieces, but this time I used a separate piece of DSP with just the rushes on it. Enjoy!

More Charming Ducks!   I thought you'd like to see some more cards I made with the Charming Duck Pond bundle and here they are. I have one more for tomorrow!

I find the ducks in their ponds with their babies so adorable, so I had to start by using one of those pieces of DSP. I also love the pieces of DSP with the carp on them, but that's for another card.   I am calling this card a spotlight flap card. In a usual spotlight card you die cut out a portion of the card and raise it up on Dimensionals. On this card you have the added bonus that the spotlight area flaps open too! Let's make this card!
