Welcome to our All Star Tutorial monthly blog hop for the Love You Always Suite!
The black and white designer paper (True Love Designer Paper) in this suite is so much fun. You can color it, but you can also just leave it as is which is what I did in my Double Fold Gate Card that I am sharing today.
I just showed live on YouTube step-by-step directions for creating this card using this True Love Designer Paper, the Forever & Always Stamp Set, the coordinating Always Dies, the Love You Always Foil Sheets, and more. And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video. Below are measurements, close-up photos, and a product list for what I demonstrated. (Please subscribe to my YouTube channel so you can get updates when I share and go live).
