Die Cut Gatefold Cards + Blog Hop + GIVEAWAYS
Welcome back! Today I am sharing with a way to create unique gatefold cards. While I show how to do this with dies, I also show how to do it without.
[If the video is not visible, please head HERE to YouTube to watch. All supplies are linked to multiple sources in the thumbnails at the end of this post. Compensated affiliate links may be used at no cost to you. I appreciate your support tremendously!]
To learn how to make these fun-fold gatefold cards, be sure to watch my video. These type of card works with many different stamps and/or dies. I started by making a *bunch* that are all very similar using the Altenew Ornamental Bliss Stamp Set. Then I show two more unique and simple examples at the end.
Here are the cards from my video along with the main products featured. For the full supply list, scroll down to the thumbnails at the end of this post.
