In today’s video I’m going to make two cards. First an Angled Gatefold and then a second card using the leftover scrap pieces from the Angled Gatefold. Shout out to Lynn Dunn over @stamptasticdesigns for this awesome idea.

• Evening Evergreen base 11″ x 5-1/2″ scored at 3-3/8″ on both ends
• DSP cut 2 at 3-1/4″ x 5-1/4″
• scraps for candy cane and banner

Instructions

• Cut the corners off the base as shown in the diagram below

• Cut DSP at 1-1/2″ and 1″ to match base panels
• Adhere the DSP to the card base

• To create the focal image, layer the snowflake, gold sprigs, candy and banner and add it to the card front
• Add a bow.
• Don’t forget the inside and envelope
