Hexagon Shaped box using Darling Dinos

Sending Love Vertical Bandstand Fun Fold card

 Hey all, I've got another vertical floating bandstand card for you today.  I absolutely love this fun fold.  I think it's easy and makes such a huge impact.  I made this particular card so I could send it out to my Aunt in Minnesota as I didn't get to mailing out my Christmas cards.  I wanted her to know I hadn't forgotten about her but didn't really want an all out Valentine card.  This is the result.  I hope you like it.  To see how I've put this card together, you can watch the video over on my YouTube channel.
