Butterfly Kisses Birthday Wishes Offset Gate Fold Card. Share it on a Sunday

 Good Morning Everyone

Happy Sunday, I hope you are all having a great weekend so far and have some lovely plans for today.

It's Share it on a Sunday and this week we are creating our Fave Fun Folds. 

I absolutely love fun fold cards, the add a great twist on a standard card and can range from super simple, to a little more complex to create. I prefer the simpler folds, Haha, and that's why I have chosen the Offset Gate Fold today.

----------------------------------------

Take the starry sky card stock and score at 3 7/8", then rotate the card stock 180 degrees and score at 2" - I found this the easiest way to get the measurement right without faffing around with tiny increments.

Fold the card along the score lines and burnish well with your bone folder. Folding both edges towards the centre. The edges should meet off centre towards the left.

Add the Basic White Panel to the inside and the two DSP panels the outside of the 'Doors'.

Layer up the remaining piece of DSP to the Starry Sky mat and then add adhesive to the back, but only cover half of the right hand side. Close the 'Doors' of your card and add this panel so it sits centrally. It will cover quite a bit of the right hand side, and a little over on the left.

On a scrap of basic white stamp the sentiment in Starry Sky card stock and cut out using the smooth oval from the Double Oval punch, also cut a scallop oval from Crushed Curry Card stock. Layer these together then add then onto the overlapping panel along with the fussy cut butterflies.
