Napkin Fold Card

Sometimes inspiration strikes at odd times.  I know it is a long time until Mother's Day, but I made a Mother's Day card anyway!  It started with this card on Buttons n'Bows blog.  I LOVED the look and had to try it myself.  Here is my version, and here's what it looks like open:
Here are some links to videos showing how to make it:
And here is a video about making the "belly band":
I used plain white cardstock for the card base & the heart shape (cut with a Spellbinder's die in my Big Shot), a pretty flowered paper and green glimmer paper from Paper Wishes, a "punch around the page" Martha Stewart punch for the edges, and another punch for the greenery by the flowers (not sure where the flowers came from - I know some at least were from Paper Wishes), a Spellbinders label die, a stamp for the sentiment, and white ribbon to tie it all together.  It turned out so well, that I think I'll use this for making the special 50th Anniversary card I've been asked to make.
