To create this card, I cut gray cardstock 5 1/2" x 11", then scored at 2 3/4" and 8 1/4". Once folded in, these 2 panels create the gate fold. Pink pattern paper and the print paper were cut to fit the panels as well as the interior of the card. To keep the card closed, I die cut 3 sizes of Spellbinders heart shaped dies, then stamped the Justrite sentiment (Garden Fairy Wishes) in the center. The white heart was adhered to the left side of the card only and the next layers were added with foam adhesives for dimension.
Once the card is opened you see another heart centered on the background. It was aligned with the closure dies so as not to be seen when the card was standing. A ribbon die was placed on the top of the heart and congratulations from You are the Best Stamp set was stamped in the center.
Supplies:
Cardstock, pattern paper: American Crafts
Dies: Spellbinders
Stamps: Justrite
Ink: Clearsnap
Scoring tool: Scor-Pal
Your card is just lovely. I just adore JustRite stamps, and had a real time with this challenge. I'm not experienced with folded cards, but I did finish mine tonight and will post it tomorrow. I hope you will check it out and share your thoughts with me. Good luck in the challenge.
