Interlocking Gatefold Card & Video!

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 MEASUREMENTS:

• Card base: 5 1/2″ x 12″, scored at 2″, 4″ 8″ and 10″

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

• 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.
