Wildly Flowering Designer Series Paper - Showcase Fun Fold Card 2.0

I love to use the highlight the beautiful Stampin' Up! Designer Series Paper as the focal point of a card. I created the Showcase Fun Fold Card Tutorial but wanted to step it up so that all the cut pieces of DSP follow the flow of the paper on each fold of a fun fold card. It took me over seven hours to design and try out to make sure my measurements were perfect. The problem I have is that my OCD carries into my crafting; this can be so frustrating. You can see examples of my Showcase Fun Fold Card HERE. This is my Showcase Fun Fold Card 2.0. I hope you like it.
