Pressed Petals Scripted Gate Fold Birthday Card

Hey Everyone,

It's Saturday... woo hoo.

Imogen is off to play with Nanny and Grandad today, so Im hoping to whizz round the house quickly qith the vac and then jump right into some solid hours of crafting...

I made today's card using the pressed petals DSP, using a subtle script pattern which I thought was just lovely. Sometimes you need a simple visual, so I used this paper on a gate fold card to add a little interest.



Measurements

Merry Merry Cardstock
1pc - 11" x 6"
1pc - 4 1/4" x 1 3/4"

Crumb Cake Cardstock
1pc - 5 1/2" x 5"
2pc - 2 1/2" x 5 3/4"

Pressed Petals Speciality Designer Series Paper
2pc - 2 1/4" x 5 1/2"
1pc - 1 1/4" x 3 3/4"

Very Vanilla Cardstock
1pc - 1 " x 3 1/2"
1pc - 5 1/4" x 4 3/4"

First stamp the sentiment in Merry merlot onto the 1" strip of very vanilla.

Pop your largest piece of Merry Merry into your simply scored on the long side score at 2 3/4" and 8 1/4". Fold the left hand panel towards the right and the right hand panel to the left. The edges should line up in the centre. Burnish well with a bone folder to get crisp folds.



All you need to do now is layer up all your pieces. The square ish pieces go inside the card and the larger rectangles decorate the 'gates'.

Finally layer up the sentiment pieces and adhere to the card. Add dimensionals to the left hand side only and dont go pat the centre point. Close the 'gates' and adhere to the centre of the card. Making sure that the adhesive is only stuck down to the left hand panel, if you go over this you will stick the card closed.

Here's a list of all the supplies I used in today's card, click on the images to head over to my online store....
