This week's Paper Craft Crew challenge card map really stumped me. I immediately thought Valentine's Day but after thinking for a few minutes I realized that the map could indicate occasions beyond 14 February.
So I looked through my stamp sets and spotted one set that had the word: Liefs - which means Love in Dutch. I don't use this set much so dusted it off and chose it for my phrase.
Next was the layout, which was an easy choice for me. This past week I learned a new folding technique called Drapery - you can see my blog post HERE introducing this technique, along with a YouTube video taking you through step by step. I love this technique so much that I decided to duplicate it but with a twist.
I used a leftover piece of the Paper Blooms designer paper. Lovely colors and patterns, right?

For my card I recreated the Drapery technique but changed how it is laid out on my card front. I also had fun adding several Woven Thread sequins - to add a fun, sparkly touch.
Here's my card:
