Diamond Front Gatefold Card

 This is a gatefold card with a bit of a twist. The front has a diamond shape instead of the standard rectangle panels. 

I chose scene paper for my card as it worked really well. The front of this card doesn't stay closed when it is standing - it will come apart, but that's fine. The image on the front was cut so the scene continues across the fold. I used the same paper for the centre panel inside the card. The back of the patterned paper was used for the side panels (the dark purple). I random stamped butterflies on two thin panels for the inside of the card. The sentiment was die cut and added inside and I also die cut three butterflies. One was adhered inside the card and the other two were placed on the front diamond. There is a panel on the back to write a message. 


Enjoy,

Alyson

    1. I don't post detailed instructions here as it is very time consuming to write out the information. You can check the name of the card on the internet or on Pinterest and chances are you will find a tutorial.
