If you’re looking for a fun fold card that’s both impressive and surprisingly easy to make, you’re going to love today’s project! In my latest video tutorial, I’m sharing three beautiful Pop Out Gate Fold Cards featuring three gorgeous Stampin’ Up! collections: Waterside Retreat, Sunset Coast, and the NEW Violet Dreams Bundle.
Each card uses the same interactive fun fold design but has its own unique style, showing just how versatile this layout can be. Whether you love peaceful lakeside scenes, coastal landscapes, or elegant florals, you’ll find plenty of inspiration to create handmade cards for birthdays, thinking of you, thank you cards, and so much more.
Why You’ll Love This Pop Out Gate Fold Card
One of my favorite things about this fun fold is that it looks incredibly impressive when opened, yet it’s easy enough for crafters of all skill levels. The pop-out feature creates a wonderful surprise for the recipient while giving you plenty of space to showcase your favorite patterned papers, stamped images, and sentiments.
In this tutorial, you’ll see how the same card design can take on three completely different looks simply by changing the stamp set and Designer Series Paper.
The base is 4-1/4″ x 11″ scored at 2-3/4″, 5-1/2″ and 8-1/4″. The bridge is 6-3/8″ x 1″ scored at 1/2″ on each side. Pop Up mechanism is 1″ x 3″ scored at 1/2″ and 1″ flip and repeat on the otehr side.
