How to Make an Off-Set Gatefold Card – Dragonfly Garden – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK.
This card is made using the Dragonfly suite from the mini catalogue. Dragonflies are a favourite of my upline Amanda Fowler and I was thinking of her when I created this card. My favourite part of this card is the gorgeous rhinestones that I have used for the bodies of the dragonflies.
Gatefold cards are very easy to make as you are just scoring a normal cardbase slightly differently. The one dragonfly creates my closure so the card will still stand up.
So, I have a question for you. Which do you prefer dragonflies or butterflies? Let me know in the comments below. I think I am a butterfly girl as I love seeing them flittering among all the pretty flowers.
