A PLACE TO START - JANUARY 2024 - CREATE A GATEFOLD CARD / ANYTHING GOES

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Crafty Makers!

Our Team at A Place to Start is starting off the year with a return to a very basic card! The Gatefold! This was the first fold I learned years ago as a novice cardmaker. There are numerous styles of gatefold design these days, so I decided to create a "Pop-Up" Gatefold.  Normally, this type of gatefold card would have a bellyband, but I opted for the medallions close instead!


I couldn't find my pawprint DSP, so I used the paw stamps from the You Make Me Wag My Tail Stamp Set to create my left panel.
 
Cute Dog Stamp Set
I just love this Cute Dog Stamp Set   I stamped the image, trimmed it down, and then cut it in half.  I think it makes the perfect border for my sentiment.  I Like the fun fold on this pop-up card!  The bottom is a built-in stand for the panel.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
