<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<u><b>Step Six</b></u></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Get creative! Stamp, stick, color, punch, etc..... Once you have finished close the wallet with a paper clip, or a binder clip as I have below. I added a nice little ribbon to mine to make it a bit more fancier.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtLjdg2B7a5TXCRv4MaXZ4cxIfVAGsebhflpqIIns03vTf5So9lteAxtCXICO5huIZnoFPWE8iygU70LXrOqckbFiXTlJ2AR-ZOco2lPQ4gTuJtyJA926z7CtfbJXWLS9B_oAZf5XHbrGT/s1600/101_0273_edited-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtLjdg2B7a5TXCRv4MaXZ4cxIfVAGsebhflpqIIns03vTf5So9lteAxtCXICO5huIZnoFPWE8iygU70LXrOqckbFiXTlJ2AR-ZOco2lPQ4gTuJtyJA926z7CtfbJXWLS9B_oAZf5XHbrGT/s400/101_0273_edited-2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Given the stamp theme, I am adding a Starbucks card to my wallet. You can also put money in yours for that hard to shop for loved one. The fact that you went out of your way to create a fancy wallet for the money really shows the recipient just how much you do care.</div>

I have been with the team from the beginning and have run the challenges as the team leader/coordinator for over 2 years. We have had fabulous guests, lots of tutorials and of course 100's of stunning cards! But Michelle needs to take a break from worrying over the blog and I am going to England for a family wedding and long vacation in the summer so the decision has been made to take now for a very long overdue "recharge of the batteries".<br />
We are going to use the time to reorganize, craft when we want to rather than because we have to and work out how best to come back in September strong and with the challenges you want to see and will play along with.<br />
But we do have one final one and we thought it was fit to end with a challenge about that very special person in your life, Mom. If you don't want to make a Mothers Day then by all means make a card for any special lady in your life or simply use our sketch, we just you to have fun and join in with this last challenge before our break.<br />

The plan is to resume the challenge in September. This will give us all time to enjoy the summer, and time with our families.</div><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><div style="text-align: center;">I personally have been feeling overwhelmed by all my responsibilities, and also feeling bad about not being able to participate and help in the challenges. Katie Tate is an awesome DT leader, and I have to say I would be lost without her. She is so organized and creative. And those two traits are hard to find in one person. I want to say THANK YOU to her for taking on the bulk of this challenge and the work involved. I also have to say thank you to Tanya along with Francy for heading up the tutorials and doing such a great job at it. And of course the rest of the team who continue to amaze me with all their beautiful cards and projects. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I have met some wonderful friends here, and of course they are all invited to come back when we resume in the fall. I will try to update the blog occasionally, and I really hope that all you come back to "play" with us next September. In the meantime, we have a couple of challenges left so please don't miss them. I am sure the DT will go out with a bang!!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Tape your Stamped and colored 2 3/4" x 3 3/4" cardstock to the outside of the smaller folded cardstock piece. Being sure to have the fold on the right side.<br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><u>Step Six</u></b></div>Close the card so that the smaller flap overlaps the left flap. If you want to secure the smaller flap, making sure the card stays closed, you can add a flower, or other embellishment. I used a scalloped circle punch on similar design paper and attached 2 flowers with a yellow brad. I popped up the scalloped circle with foam dots, and simply tucked the flap underneath the flowers.<br />

Embellishing, adjusting, changing the tutorial to fit your needs. I hope that you have been inspired to create, and perhaps if this is a new fold for you, why not give it a go. <br />
