Christmas Gate Fold Card

We’re wrapping up the Creative Christmas Card Fold Video series today with one of my favorite card folds…

It’s a Christmas Gate Fold Card!

Now you may have seen this card fold before, but have you made a gate fold card lately?

If not, watch this video for a quick refresher and get to making one!

Paper Sizes:
Real Red card base: 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ scored at 2-1/8″ from both ends
Snowflake paper: 2″ x 5-3/8″
Whisper White: 2-1/2″ x 3-3/4″
Real Red: 2-5/8″ x 3-7/8″

It doesn’t photograph very well, but I used Shimmery Crystal Effects to add a little glimmer & shine to some of the snow. It looks just like the shimmery snow I can see in my backyard right now!

Grab some pretty paper and make a gatefold card.

There aren’t enough hours in a day for me to try all the cards!

That’s the truth Lorraine! I do like to keep a running list of all the cards/techniques I want to try so that when I do have a few minutes I know just what I want to start on.
