Stampin' Up! Interlocking Gatefold with Nature's Harvest!
August 20, 2021
Hey there! I'm still playing with the Nature's Harvest bundle. There are so many possibilities with this suite of products!
For today's card I created an interlocking gate-fold card. I started with an 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" layer of Soft Succulent card stock, scored and folded at 2 1/8" from the left short end (portrait). I then folded the opposite end to meet the first fold in the middle. This created two flaps for the front.
I attached two pieces of Harvest Meadow designer 5 1/4" x 1 7/8".
For the interlocking flaps (cross-wise) I cut two pieces of Soft Succulent 4" x 2 1/4". I added a piece of coordinating Harvest Meadow designer paper cut 2" x 3 3/4" to each flap. I then adhered the flaps, one on each side of the of the card.
The greeting is from Nature's Harvest, stamped with Soft Succulent and cut with a Harvest die. I added a Harvest die cut of Soft Succulent behind it, along with a Gilded Gem.
After stamping the cone flowers on Basic White and cutting out with a Layering Circle die, I colored the cones with Bumblebee and Cajun Craze ink using a Wink of Stella Glitter Brush. I squeezed the inkpad lid to the pad while it was closed to create a pool of ink in the lid, then dipped the tip of the Wink of Stella in the ink to color. I used the same technique to color the stems and leaves with Soft Succulent. The ink cleans off the tip of the brush with just a few swipes on my scratch paper! I adhered the flower circle to a slightly larger scalloped Soft Succulent circle, then adhered to the bottom cross-panel with dimensionals. A couple more Gilded Gems and the front was complete!
Inside I used a sentiment from Elegantly Said, stamped in Soft Succulent, then breathed on the ink remaining on the coneflowers and stamped near the left corner.
This card was very easy but very fun to create!
