A Simple Gatefold Card

A Simple Gatefold Card

Hey Crafty Meraki friends....it's Michelle back with you, sharing a simple gatefold card.  This week the Crafty Meraki design team is putting all the focus on interactive, fancy and fun fold cards.  Now I must admit, that these types of cards are not my forte and I wasn't sure what to do, so I did what everyone does...turned to Pinterest for different fold card ideas.  There are so many great and amazing ideas out there, but I decided to stay on the simple side and focus on the Gatefold card.  Now you may ask yourself, self...what is a gatefold card???  Well it is just that...a card that opens up like a gate.  Let's open up that gate and get right to it, shall we!

 To start cut a piece of light pink cardstock to 8.5" x 5.5".  Score at 2 1/8" on either side, from the outside edges in.  Cut 2 pieces of black cardstock to 2" x 5 3/8" and 2 pieces of printed cardstock to 5 1/4" x 1 7/8". Take a bone folder and fold over both scored lines on the pink cardbase.  Adhere both pieces of printed cardstock on the black cardstock with liquid adhesive and adhere to the folded flaps on the outside of the folded card base.

Cut a few vellum leaves using the Laurel Leaf dies.  Cut out the pink themed sheet from the Evergreen Elegance EAP using the coordinating dies.   Arrange all diecut leaves accordingly and adhere using glue.  Cut out a small circle from the same pink cardstock as the cardbase to adhere behind the diecut leaves.  This will give the leaves a base to adhere to, but also ties in the cardbase more.  Cut the happy birthday sentiment from the Gilded Greetings EAP and cut out using the coordinating dies

Adhere the pink diecut circle to the middle of the left side of the flap.  Be sure to only apply glue to half of the circle.  Add the diecut leaf arrangement to the circle diecut and the happy birthday sentiment over the bottom half of the leaves, using foam adhesive to give it some dimension.  To finish it, add scattering of Meraki Sparkle Magic Crystal gems and tie a piece of twine around the card to keep it closed before it goes to recipient.  

I hope that you have enjoyed my post for today and that I help to inspire you some way.  If you are new  to fun and fancy fold cards, then I think the gateway card is a perfect intro to them.  I wish you all the most wonderful and crafty day and until next time,

Michelle :)

I’m thrilled to share my incredible experience with Dr Jakuta, a powerful spell caster who helped me reunite with my wife. We were facing numerous issues, and our relationship deteriorated, leading to a heartbreaking breakup. However, with the guidance of Dr Jakuta, whom my friend introduced me to, I followed his advice and, amazingly, my wife returned to me within 24 hours! I’m forever grateful. For those seeking help, you can reach Dr Jakuta at doctorjakutaspellcaster24@gmail. com or WhatsApp him on +2349161779461

Avoiding Scams in Crypto Recovery: How to Choose the Right Expert

To everyone reading this, I wanted to share my experience. I invested a significant amount of money in BTC, and unfortunately, I fell victim to an online scam artist. I was lured in by a seemingly great opportunity that required me to keep funds in my BTC wallet. I can’t believe I ended up in such a precarious situation, especially since I was investing $55,000.00 USD every two weeks from my savings over a few months!. The scammers cut off all communication, and I didn’t see any returns on my investment. Desperate to recover my losses, I reached out to a friend who recommended jetwebhackers . They specialize in recovering stolen Bitcoin, USDT, and other cryptocurrencies. I’m pleased to say that after reaching out to them and sharing my story, they managed to recover 96.5% of my funds within just a few business days! It was truly a relief and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. If anyone else finds themselves in a similar situation, I highly recommend seeking help from professionals like them.

My husband and I decided to invest $500 in what seemed like a promising opportunity we found online. Initially, our investment grew by about 20%, which encouraged us to gradually increase our stake to $12,000 over time. However, when we tried to withdraw our profits, we were blindsided by a demand for a 30% upfront commission. Unable to meet this unexpected requirement, we felt stuck and didn’t know where to turn.

Thankfully, a friend recommended that we seek professional help from NetGuard Network Asset Recovery Team. Desperate, we reached out to them and provided all the details of our situation. The team at NetGuard Network was incredibly supportive and professional. They carefully reviewed our case and, to our immense relief, managed to recover our initial investment and a portion of the profits within a few weeks. In total, we got back $10,000, which was a huge relief during such a stressful time.

NetGuard Network’s assistance was invaluable, and I honestly don’t know what we would have done without their help. For anyone facing a similar situation, I can’t stress enough how important it is to seek expert assistance. NetGuard Network Asset Recovery Team made a huge difference for us. If you’re in a similar bind, don’t hesitate to reach out to them. You can visit their website or contact them through WhatsApp at +1 (913) 218-6208 or via email at netguardnetwork@gmail.com. Wishing you the best of luck!
