Double Lower Gate Fold Card | Impressions Abloom

Beautiful designer paper makes creating fun fold cards so easy! The new Flowers in Bloom designer paper won’t leave you disappointed.

The three patterns you see in the photos are all from the same package of pattern paper. Mixing the patterns of the panels was easy with Stampin’ Up!’s exclusive color coordination.

You can utilize the center panel for additional sentiments or images. Here I opted to hide one of the small flowers to reveal the trio when this flap is opened.

The Inside Details

The pocket holds an insert which includes my sentiment and plenty of room for a written note and a signature.

Cinching the ribbon with a piece of baker’s twine allows it to stay upright for the perfect pulling mechanism.

Double Lower Gate Fold Card | Pretty Flowers

This card features several designer papers which emphasizes the amazing color coordination between packages of Stampin’ Up!’s products.

The Pretty Flowers Bundle (stamp set + coordinating dies) created the flower and stem.

The greeting comes from Cake Celebrations. The unique feature of this stamp set is the ability to create custom greetings and phrases by using the words independently.

The Inside Details

Have you noticed how this card is larger than the first? This card uses 12″ x 12″ cardstock for the card base and provides more room for images and longer greetings.

It also provides more space for pretty designer paper!

Instead of a pocket, like my first card, this one includes a small card which is perfect for a sentiment and signing.

And you love a card that’s freestanding! This one displays perfectly leaving it irresistible for a visitor to pick up and admire the folds.

Sweet Jar

Masculine birthday cards are something we all need. But if you’re like me, we have a great array of flowers, butterflies and feminine images and find cards for men a bit more challenging. That’s where the Sweet Jar Bundle comes to the rescue! This Bundle features a coordinating punch that makes the jar and lid look realistic.

The Timeless Plaid designer paper comes in an array of colors the plaids are assorted making them perfect for these types of cards.

Photopolymer stamps makes it easy to strategically stamped the candles in a single color. I simply lined up a few candles in the ink pad, cleaned the stamp and repeated the images. This stamp set also includes a single candle if you’d prefer to stamp them one at a time.

The Inside Details

The inside card to this fun fold was made to look like a gift box. I added the ribbon using Mini Glue Dots and created the bow using my favorite bow maker HERE.

Once opened, you’ll find a gift card secured and a sentiment that was added using the Nested Essentials Dies. Both were attached using one Glue Dot making it easy for the receiver to remove them.

Regardless if you choose to make this card from 8.5″ x 11″ cardstock or 12″ x 12″ cardstock, I think you’ll agree that this is a fun fold card that anyone would enjoy receiving!
