Yesterday I shared three gate fold explosion cards that I made with the Magic In This Night Suite. I mentioned that I was inspired to design them when my upline, Susan Campfield sent us the supplies to make one with pieces from the Snowflake Splendor Suite. Today I thought I’d share photos of that make-n-take card and two other cards I made using similar elements. You can refer back to yesterday’s post for a video of instructions to make a gate fold explosion card. The two other cards are put together in the same manner as the cards I shared on September 23rd.

All three cards share the same snowflake cluster and sentiment strip. For one card die-cut three snowflakes (two with Whisper White Thick Cardstock and one with Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper) using the following dies from the So Many Snowflake Dies.

Layer them together with Glue Dots. And add a Blue Adhesive-Backed Gem to the center. Then cut a strip of 3/4″ x 4-1/4″ Whisper White Thick Cardstock. Punch the end with the Banners Pick A Punch. Then stamp the sentiment from the Snowflake Wishes Stamp Set onto it with Pacific Point Ink.

Here is Susan’s gate fold explosion card.
