Gatefold card

Hi again

Today's card is a gatefold card which is very easy to make.



Using the normal size card (A4 cut in half), score from both ends at 52mm and fold into centre. I used Real Red with Marina Mist from the Polka Dot Parade DSP on Whisper White base card. The Ovals Collection Framelits cut the ovals for the front and these were attached on the left side using Dimensionals. The bird is stamped from Language of Friendship and punched with the Bird Builder.
"For You" is from the Elements of Style set and punched with the Postage Stamp punch then mounted on a slightly larger piece of Real Red. A piece of Real Red stitched Grosgrain Ribbon was taped at the back of the card, and long enough to tie a bow at the front to hold the card closed. The sentiment and bird were both attached using Dimensionals.



Inside the card I taped another piece of the DSP to the centre panel.

  2. Lesley, you always come up with such lovely cards. This one is really nice. That dsp is even nicer in real life. Love that bird stamp too and wish it was not retiring.
