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 never thought I’d need to recover lost Bitcoin. I was always cautious, double-checking addresses and securing my accounts. But one phishing link changed everything. It looked identical to a crypto platform I trusted. Moments after entering my login details, my Bitcoin was gone, sent to an unknown wallet.
The financial loss was painful, but the helplessness was worse. I knew that blockchain transactions are irreversible, and most forums confirmed my fear: “Once it’s gone, it’s gone.”
Then I found Morphohack Cyber Service, a recovery team that tracks stolen cryptocurrency, I reached out to them via E-mail (Morphohack@cyberservices . com).
I was skeptical, but with nothing left to lose, I reached out. From the start, they were clear and professional. They explained their method, tracing the stolen funds across the blockchain to find where they ended up.
In my case, the Bitcoin had passed through several wallets before arriving at a centralized exchange. Morphohack acted fast, working with the exchange to freeze the assets using blockchain evidence.
Weeks later, I got the email I didn’t think would come, my Bitcoin had been recovered.

If you ever face a similar loss, act quickly and contact experts like Morphohack Cyber Services. Their help made the difference between a permanent loss and a second chance.

Hello guys, after I lost my Dad in 2021, everything became very hard for me and my siblings, we could not pay our bills anymore as life took a turn on our flesh, I can’t use my credit card because my credit score was that bad but I needed to figure out how to help my family. To get a house and a car to keep the family running but I could not because of my poor credit score. I thought everything was over for me and siblings because my Dad was everything to us, all hope seems gone, not until I came across MR. JERRY who helped me out with my credit score, from 534 to 786 excellent credit score. All thanks to him and his team for clearing all the negative items on my report. You can reach out to him via email: jerrylinkcreditgroup.com to appreciate me later.

I’ve read countless accounts of people losing bitcoin due to scam. I prefer to begin by emphasising that the groups responsible for bitcoin security have done nothing to aid in the recovery of stolen or lost coins. In my case, someone with access to my emails attacked my computer and stole 4.3 bitcoins. I immediately contacted blockchain, but they wasted my time. I subsequently sought assistance elsewhere and was directed to a bitcoin expert who assisted me in locating and recovering my bitcoins for a fee. After the work was completed, I was delighted to pay more. I am grateful to have received assistance, and I recommend you to contact (recoveryhacker101 @ GMAIL COM).
