Hello and welcome to the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop where we are sharing step cards. I have used the Friendly Seagulls stamp set – can’t seem to get enough of this set, to make my card. This card was inspired by Teri Pocock

I folded the single central fold inwards. The folds on the right side were then folded in concertina fashion.
