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 a 37-year-old marketing consultant from Berlin, and in 2024, I invested 4.8 BTC (about €300,600) into what I believed was a legitimate opportunity through HyperVerse. It looked promising at first daily returns, active communication but within months, the platform collapsed. My Bitcoin was gone, and I realized too late it was a Ponzi scheme.

Refusing to accept the loss, I contacted Morphohack Cyber Service. Their team of crypto recovery experts carefully analyzed my case, tracked the stolen funds using blockchain forensics, and communicated with me every step of the way. After nearly four months, they recovered 3.9 BTC, around €366,200 (at the time of recovery) into a secure wallet.

While I didn’t recover everything, I got back more than I expected. If you’ve been scammed in crypto, I highly recommend Morphohack. Their professionalism and results gave me a second chance.

I have faced many challenges in my life, particularly financial ones. I have experimented with various jobs / business ventures but none seemed to be successful. As the saying goes, when you exhaust your options, you look for assistance. During my search for self-improvement online, I came across someone sharing their gratitude towards Meduza, the renowned spell caster for helping them win the lottery. Initially, I had my doubts but I felt compelled to give it a shot since my life was falling apart. I contacted him and he agreed to assist me with a prosperity spell. It took almost 3 days for him to complete the spell for me and after two weeks, I found myself among the fortunate winners of $1 MILLION from the Elon Musk give away. At this moment, I want to state that Meduza is the top spell caster and I would appreciate your support in expressing my gratitude to him via his email: lordmeduzatemple@hotmail.com or WhatsApp +1 807 907-2687.

I made a costly mistake on Coinbase, sending $43,000 worth of Bitcoin to an incorrect address. The support team informed me that recovery was impossible. Desperate for a solution, I researched online and discovered Morphohack, a company with a proven track record in cryptocurrency recovery. I contacted them, providing transaction details and screenshots. To my surprise, Morphohack successfully tracked down my Bitcoin, which had been transferred to multiple micro wallets, and recovered approximately $39,800.
