Mini New Year
If you've visited my blog before, you know that I like fun fold cards. The first one I have for you today is a side-step card. I used images from several other MFP Oriental sets on this card. I masked off a small section before I stamped the background so that I could put the "Hold On, Tiger" sentiment there. I added an Oriental coin for some interest.
The next card I have for you is also on the Mark's Finest Papers blog today. I wanted to be able to show you both tiger images from this set. I was in Joann the other day and saw this great Darice embossing folder and knew it would work well as a background for this tiger.
Be sure to check out the rest of the design team members' blogs for more inspiration. And don't forget to comment when you visit. You might just win a free stamp set from this month.

Wow these are pretty. I love the embellishment on your step card. I like the embossing folder on the last. You know I think I may have this one. Great job on both of your cards. Both are beautiful.
Fabulous work Lois! Your coloring looks amazing!
Your card is perfect with the bamboo! So pretty ! :)

Gorgeous projects!!!! Love the charm on the side step card! Love the gorgeous coloring on the last card!!!!
Great job on both of your cards. I really like how you have colored your tigers.
Like both Tiger cards. Especially like the scene in the 1st card. Like Wild Cats.

Superb! I love both of these and the bright colours go so well with this image!
Oh my gosh, Lois, your cards are gorgeous - and your tiger is wonderful! You should do a tutorial on coloring this tiger - I for one need the help!! Wow!
Fabulous! I love the side step card with the coin and the embossing was a perfect way to show of the the tiger in the second. Love it. I followed you via GFC and hoped to follow you by e-mail but I did not see the link. Is there one? Or am I not looking carefully enough?
Wow. Wow. Wow. Love that tiger step card. I so have to scrap-lift this one! LOL.
Terrific tiger cards. I like how you decorated the side step card and the embossing folder on the second one.
great cards-love that embossing folder, and those tigers look amazing!
Lois--what beautiful tiger cards! Beautifully colored! TFS
Love both of your cards. I actually printed the one off and colored my tiger to look like yours. Thanks for the inspiration.
Love both cards That tiger looks like he belongs on that side step....Lis
Like that step card very much
Gorgeous cards; love all the details, especially the step card. Thanks for sharing
Both cards are fantastic. I find step cards harder to do than other folds, but you have done a tiggerific job. The second is wonderful as well - love the bamboo background and CAS approach.
step cards are so much fun! I love it, and the bamboo embossing is perfect with the second!
