Fun Fold Friday - Gatefold Slider

Welcome to another edition of Fun Fold Friday - I’m playing with the Gatefold Slider fold.

My final design was inspired by playing along to a few challenges: 30 Day Christmas Cardmaking Challenge Day 6 Deck the Wreath.

Inspire.Create Stamping challenge - another Christmas card. #ICSC228

I’m getting inky with the Whispering Woods DSP, Detailed Wreath Accents, Nested Essential dies, Soiree Salutations stamp set, Pretty Peacock, Pool Party and Barely Blush inks, Barely Blush glimmer brush and silver twine.  

Fun Fold Measurements 

Coloured Card base

8 1/2” x 5 1/2” scored at 2 1/8” in on both sides to create Gatefold

2 squares sized to fit behind your focal image 

White cardstock 

1 insert 4” x 5 1/4” 

2 squares cut slightly smaller than coloured cardstock folded in half and burnished.

DSP

2 strips of 2” x 5 1/4”

Focal image - create yours as desired. I am using the Nesting Essential Dies layered with cardstock and DSP and added a Detailed Wreath Accents blended with Pretty Peacock, Pool Party and Barely Blush inks and then I added Barely Blush glimmer for an added pop of sparkle.
