Heart Shaped Triple Panel Gate-Fold card with video tutorial & free project sheet

I enjoyed casing my friend Susie Wood when I made this pretty card: 

Save

It features two Sale-a-Bration products:  The Bloom Impressions designer series paper and the Heart Shaped bundle. Both are free with purchase through February 28th.  

The Heart Shaped bundle includes the stamp set and coordinating dies. I notice this bundle is in low inventory today!  See it here.

My card bases are Petunia Pop and the card stock panels are Blackberry Bliss.  I love how the stamp under the die adds the pretty detail to the image.  

As you can see below it's a gatefold card with the three panels added to the left side.  See the free project sheet with measurements below:

  This fun fold card I’m sharing today is super fun to open and to make.  It looks like a normal card from this photo:

  But look how it opens!  The center pops out for a nice surprise.

  My colors include Cajun Craze, Early Espresso & Basic Beige.  The designer paper is from the Gathering Together pack seen here.  

  This designer paper is part of our Online Exclusives.  To see all of these new items click here.  Or download & save the Download Online Exclusives flyer 

  I used the Branching Out stamp set for the greeting and the fabulous new Traditional Labels dies seen here.  

  In the photo below you can see the scored bridge strip that pops out the center.  To understand how to assemble this card please watch the video below.  It will make sense then!

• Gathering Moments swap; I love creating my own paper!

  September 4, 2025

  ---

  Here’s a pretty card I made for one of the online swaps I joined last month:

  Save

  I used the new Gathering Moments stamp set with the new Traditional Labels dies.

  The card stock colors are Lost Lagoon, Timid Tiger and Very Vanilla.  Inks are Timid Tiger, Lost Lagoon, Pretty Peacock and Pecan Pie.

  After stamping I used a Blending Brush to add Lost Lagoon ink around the edges and on the greeting die-cut too.

  I love creating cards for swaps!  I find it very relaxing to make multiples of my creations.

  Save

  You can see this stamp set here.  It has a set of dies as well.  See the Traditional Labels dies here.  

  Save

  I’ll be sharing many more cards with this pretty new bundle next week.
