Hi friends, here are my Triple Diamond Gatefold cards that I’ve recently made.
I made this card during a FB Live craft along using the free gifts from Issue 205 of Simply Cards & Papercraft magazine available here
The free gifts are brilliant, a 5 x 7 embossing folder, and a fun stamp set.
The stamps are easy to colour and fussy cut.
I added some of my own leaf dies to fill out the scene I made on the front and I also added a pink feature for some added interest and texture.
I continued the theme on the front and on the belly band.
SUPPLIES USED TO MAKE THESE CARDS
Simply Cards & Papercraft Magazine issue 205 available here.
Arteza coloured pencils available here.
I used Tonic Studio cardstock available here.
The leaf dies I used were purchased a while ago from The Works and are no longer available, however, there are many other brands with topical leaf dies.
