Christmas Season Gatefold card with a Designer Paper twist; FB Live video!

October 25, 2021

We're making these pretty cards tonight on FB Live 'Stamp with Me'. It's at 7:30 pm CT here.

It's actually a gatefold card but the front panel is a piece of designer paper that leaves a reveal of the right edge of the card base which is textured.

For these two cards I chose to use the In Good Taste DSP (Annual Catalog on the left) and Cork paper on the left from the Holiday catalog.

Or see it on my YouTube channel here on Tuesday.

Here’s the card I featured on last week’s video. We made it at my February card clubs locally and it was a big hit!

Save

My colors include Lost Lagoon, Pecan Pie & Basic Beige. There are two different pieces of the designer paper that’s called Nature Walk and can be seen here.

There are lots of pieces and extra elements to this card. It was super fun to put together. That neat striped embossing folder on the extra Lost Lagoon layer is called Lovely Stripes and can be seen here. It’s one of my new favorites.

This card is kept closed by the narrow ‘flap’ attached to the right side of the card. I added a small triangle to the DSP layer to tuck the corner into. Works great To hold that flap down!

Save

The flap is adhered ‘underneath’ the DSP layer inside the card. *note the other embossing folder used on the card above. It’s called Stone & Vine and is also a deeply textured folder seen here.

There are many, many details on this card I want to highlight. Here goes:
- The die-cut leaves and ‘wood’ piece under the greeting are from the Nature’s Symphony bundle seen here.
- The die-cut leaves are cut out from our two-sided card stock. I love that you can choose the light or the dark side which gives more color choices!
- I added Pecan Pie ink to that wood die-cut with a blending brush.
- The greeting is from the Three Banner punch bundle seen here.
I created a free project sheet you can print or download. Click to see it.

Below is the video tutorial for this card; I hope you watch it as I give multiple tips and ways to make your crafting process easier.
