I have seen a few of these Gate Fold cards recently so thought I'd make and teach this card for my last class. Well..... it was quite a bit of work but I think the result looked good. The panels have been embossed on white with the Vintage wallpaper folder. Then I have brayered one side with Cherry Cobbler and then cut out.
I have made a perfect scalloped edge square here for the front.
Do you have times when you are teaching a class when things don't work out. Well this is one thing that did not work. I had cut everyones square to 2 3/8" like mine( for the scalloped edge diamond in the front), and yet none of the squares ended up like mine. I had one lady try and then I thought perhaps I had better do the rest. Even I couldn't get them looking like my sample. One lady kindly said that because I was in a class situation and not sitting down in my craft room that is why it wasn't working. Well I think she must have been right because the next day when I was doing up some kits it worked perfectly in my craft room.
Here is the inside of the of the card.
Colours I have used are Early expresso, Crumb cake, and white card stock.
The bauble on the front has been embossed with the new embossing powder Wild Wasabi. Looks really good.
