Day #3 of Sweet Days of Autumn: September Interlocking Gatefold Card
September 24, 2024
Welcome back to Day #3 of my Week of Sweet Days of Autumn. I'm sharing inspiration for the new Sweet Days of Autumn products from the Scrapbooking Brochure.
You know I had to make a fun fold card - as they are some of my favorite style of cards. This one is called a Interlocking Gatefold Card.
This card would be great for September milestone birthdays, September wedding or anniversary or more!
How'd She DO That? September Interlocking Gatefold card
- Stamps: Autumn to Remember
- Paper:
- Crumb Cake (8-1/2" x 5-1/2" card base - score at 2-1/8 & 6-3/8" fold ends to meet in the center = gatefold)
- Basic White (4" x 5-1/4" inside, 2-3/4" x 3-3/4" pattern stamping, 1-3/4" x 3-3/4" for sentiment)
- Cajun Craze (two of 1-5/8" x 4", 2" x 4" for sentiment)
- Sweet Days of Autumn Designer Series Paper (scraps for two different colored Nested Essentials small banners)
- Other: Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine, Nested Essentials Dies, Linen Thread, Faux Glass Dots , Stampin' Seal, Mini Glue Dots
You might be thinking that some of the panels are printed pattern paper, but they are not. With a closer look, you'll see that I stamped those panels. I really enjoy making my own designs by mixing and matching stamping images and create my own patterns. See below for my tips.
DOstamping Tips:
- On 2-3/4" x 3-3/4" white piece, use Autumn to Remember stamp set to stamp the diagonal pattern.
- Use small maple leaf (Cajun Craze & Crushed Curry inks) and border (Pecan Pie).
- Note: rotate leaf images to make them appear like they are falling.
- Cut stamped piece in half to create two 1-3/8" x 3-3/4" pieces. Adhere to 1-5/8" x 4" Cajun Craze pieces.
- On 1-3/4" x 3-3/4" which piece, stamp sentiment. Adhere to 2" x 4" Cajun Craze piece.
- Arrange all three stamped pieces onto folded gatefold card as shown. Adhere top & bottom pieces first, to LEFT side only. Then adhere center piece to RIGHT side only.
- Use glue dots to adhere DSP banner die cuts to back of center panel. Tie linen thread into a bow and adhere to banners.
- Finish with my favorite Faux Glass Dots.
Bring some of the stamping to the corner of the inside panel - cute, huh?
