Let me start of by saying, my cards are never interactive and I never take them to the next level. If anything, I bring them down a notch (or two) and go for über simple. Needless to say, this Papertrey Ink Challenge was challenging for me.
My dear friend Linda Barker, taught me this card trick and it's easy and fun. With a few simple folds of plain copy paper, you can make your cards pop! Then in true Linda fashion, she taught me to use decorative scissors and a hole punch for a lacey look.

Great idea. Love the colours.
What a cool fold!
Wow! Love the interactive piece of your card, Kari! That is a cool idea. I've taken a couple of classes from Linda at Impress a few years bag. She has the most clever ideas!
Neat. Never seen an inside like this before. Clever!
This is wonderful I love what you came up with. Such a good idea and it so pretty.
So clever! I love the pink, turquoise, and brown combo!
I love your idea!! What a great way to showcase a heartfelt message. It's really wonderfully creative!
Fabulous card and great idea, never would have thought of this! TFS
Now this card will certainly surprise its recipient! Who knew there was so much waiting inside?!
What a great idea! I love the color combination.
TFS!
What a fun idea! I love how the paper unfolds on the inside, and how you were able to achieve that fabulous eyelet scallop all the way around it - awesome. Nice job! ;-)
Kari, this is so fun!
This is a wow mega fold card! Way to rock out the PTI blog challenge.
It's a good life!

Neat fold idea, very cute!
OH, how pretty! Love that inside. The punched scalloped edge looks great... the colors are so pretty!
Super fun! Love the colors, and the inside! Gorgeous -- I can see doing this and having my kiddos do the artwork on the inside :) Thanks for sharing!
