Gatefold Card using Dainty Delight

 

This beautiful card uses a new stamp set from the January-June mini catalog called Dainty Delight.  It also features the Dainty Flowers Designer Series Paper which you can get for FREE in January/February with any $50 purchase (not including tax and shipping). 

 This is an unusual fold and works nicely with lots of different papers.  Here are the instructions:

Basic white –      5 ½ X 4 ¼ (back base)

                              8 X 4 ¼ - score at 2” and 6” (Gate fold layer)

                              3 ½ X 3 ¾ (inside layer)

 Designer Series Paper #1  -          5 3/8 x 4 1/8 – Glue this to the white back base

Coordinating cardstock strip  5 ½ X 2 – wrap ribbon on linen thread around this and tie in a bow on the right side, then center on the base and attach.

 Designer Series Paper #2  Cut four strips 1 7/8 X 4 1/8 – glue to the front openings and inside openings.

 Decorate the inside layer however you’d like and attach.  I used a stamp from the Dainty Delight stampset and colored the different flowers using Stampin Write markers, then give it a “huff” and stamp it.  That is how you get the different colors on one stamp.  Do not use Stampin Blends for this – because they are alcohol based, they won’t work and they’ll stain your stamp. 

 Cut two pieces for the strip in the front (I used sparkle paper) ¾” x 2 ½ and ¾ x 2.  The longer piece goes on the left side.  Glue to about 1/4” from the edge and use a piece for a greeting that will “catch” the other side and hold it down.
