I put together two more pop out gate-fold cards using products from the How Sweet It Is suite, Pearlized Doilies (available for purchase, but ALSO available in a two-pack as a freebie during Sale-a-Bration), and Glitter Enamel Dots. You may recall that I shared how to make this style fun fold with the Floral Romance products in my February 6, 2019 post. And the card in THAT post was inspired by the make-n-take we made at Demos Galore that I shared in my February 4, 2019 post. So I hope you like these. Same fun fold…totally different look.
Here is the first one.
Measurements…
- Basic Black Cardstock:
- 4-1/4″ x 11″ scored at 5-1/2″ and then at 2-3/4″ from each end
- Scrap for punching out 2-1/4″ Circle piece
- Whisper White Cardstock:
- Scrap for stamping and die-cutting sentiment piece
- 1″ x 12″
- Two pieces cut to 2-1/2″ x 3/4″
- Scrap for punching two 3/4″ Circles
- How Sweet It Is Designer Paper:
- Pink Stripes: 3/4″ x 12″
- Colorful Diagonal Stripe: Two pieces cut to 2-1/2″ x 4″
- Pink Cupcakes/Candy Jars: Two pieces cut to 2-1/2″ x 4″
- Candy Jars: One die-cut candy jar
Products I Used… See below for a full list of supplies linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Directions…
- After scoring and folding Basic Black card base into a W-shape, adhere the 2-1/2″ x 4″ designer paper pieces to the front and back with SNAIL.
- Stamp “Happy Birthday” on the right side of one 2-1/2″ x 3/4″ Whisper White piece. Attach both 2-1/2″ x 3/4″ white pieces to the inside of the card so they are going across the middle of each designer paper piece. Add Glitter Enamel Dots.
- Stamp the sentiment image onto the Whisper White scrap. Then die-cut it with the coordinating die.
- Die-cut the jar from the designer paper. Punch the 2-1/4″ Basic Black circle. And punch the two 3/4″ Whisper White circles and fold them in half.
- Use Glue Dots and attach half of one 3/4″ Circle to the right side of the middle fold so the score line of the circle is even with the score line of the middle of the card. Use Glue Dots and attach half of the other circle to the left side of the middle fold so the score line of the circle is even with the score line of the middle of the card. Then attach the die-cut jar piece to the other halves of those circles using Glue Dots.
- Attach the designer strip with SNAIL down the middle of the Whisper White strip. To create a belly band, wrap strip around the closed card and connect ends with SNAIL in the middle/front.
- Attach the Pearlized Doily over the middle area of the belly band. Attach the 2-1/4″ Basic Black circle to the center of the doily. Use Dimensionals to add the sentiment on the black circle. Then add a couple Glitter Enamel Dots.
And here is the second one. By the way, both cards are made from the exact same set of products. So if you get (or have) everything in the products list below, you can make BOTH of these.
