Interlocking Gatefold Card & Video!

May 13, 2021 5 Comments

Are you ready to learn how to make another fun fold card? The “Interlocking Gatefold” is a new one for me and it may be new to you too! This card is super simple and soooo much FUN to make!

I recently discovered this fun fold on a beautiful card created by Kat Chancellor (check it out on her blog HERE). I was absolutely inspired to give this gatefold a try and am I ever glad I did!

Here’s the first card that I made, which I also featured on yesterday’s blog post for our “Around the World on Wednesday” Blog Hop:

My second & third “Interlocking Gatefold Cards” were made the same way but this time I used the “Campology” and “Beauty of Friendship” stamp sets (and the bird image from “Sailing Home” set):

Here’s my video demonstration for this card:

  • Card Stock Layer for Stamped Pieces: 4″ x 5 1/2″. Cut into three pieces. Glue to card flaps.

I couldn’t resist making yet ANOTHER “interlocking gatefold card” with the beautiful “Pansy Patch Bundle” and coordinating “Pansy Petals” Designer Series Paper:

BahhhUTIfuuull or WHAT? I love how this card turned out and I LOVE how the colours worked so well together too!
  • Large pansies: Rich Razzleberry, Pale Papaya, Bumblebee, Calypso Coral and Black Memento
  • Small pansies: Fresh Freesia, Polished Pink, Blackberry Bliss and Bumblebee
  • Leaves; Garden Green and Evening Evergreen

I sponged the edges of the stamped piece with Coastal Cabana. The card stock layer is Bermuda Bay. Sentiments were stamped with Rich Razzleberry.

I joined Stampin' Up! the first night they arrived in Canada, April 2002, and what a ride it's been! At the time I just wanted the discount on all of the fabulous stamps and accessories - why pay full price if you don't have to, right? But little did I know where my journey with Stampin' Up! would take me. Read More…

    I was wondering what the measurement is for the card stock cut in three. I can’t figure out 5 1\2″ is divided by 3 is.

      I cut my card stock strips at 1 3/4 and the third strip is just a bit shy of 1 3/4. You can see how I cut them in my video at the 14:27 mark.
