Welcome to the Stampin Dreams Blog hop. I am part of an amazing group of demonstrators from all around the world. We love showcasing some of the wonderful products which can found in our suite of catalogues. This month we are sharing some fun fold card ideas. So I decided to share a pretty Gatefold Interlocking card that I made on my Facebook Live this week

Hand Penned Petals

The Hand Penned Suite is just adorable. The Designer series papers are so on trend with its delicately tinted images. I can honest say I have not not stopped creating with this suite since I received it and it is the main focus of our TNT Online retreat this month.

Gatefold Interlocking card

As fun fold cards go this one is really simple once you understand the mechanism. It’s been quiet a while since I have made one of these shapes, but those watching my Facebook Live really loved it

My starting point were of course the stunning Hand Penned Designer Series Papers. They are just so fresh and pretty. so I chose my colour combination by selecting the main colours in the imagery. I swapped out the Pale Papaya for the Petal Pink as I felt it gave a better balance to the Blushing Bride. I love that our colour range is so beautifully interchangable.

The interlocking pieces were made with the Stitched rectangle dies, but you could any layering dies that take your fancy

The image has been stamped to math the papers, but you can change it up any way you wish.

How about the inside?

Because you get a glimpse of the inside I wanted to match it to the front and carry the design through. I love doing this with all of my cards as it gives a feeling of continuity,

Voila!
