Flowering Tulip Mounted Double Gate Fold

We haven't done one of these Fun Folds since the holidays, so I thought it was about time to revisit it!!  I'm really pleased with this "Becky Original"!! I just LOVE the Flowering Fields DSP - you don't even need the dies or stamp set! (Althought the sentiment is from the coordinating stamps - Flowering Tulips.)



Measurements:    

  • Pear Pizzazz: 4 1/4" x 11" (1/2 sheet cut LENGTHWISE), 1/4 piece
  • Flowering Fields DSP (N): 2 pcs @ 7/8" x 4" (green), 2 pcs @ 1 3/4" x 4" (tulips) - these are the flip sides. scrap of Pumpkin Pie print
  • Basic White: 3 1/4" x 4" (inside), scrap
  • Pumpkin Pie: 2 1/4" square
To Make this Card:

  • Score long sheet at 2" - 3 3/4" - 7 1/4" - 9". Crease well with Bone Folder creating a Double Gate Fold.
  • Mount 2 narrow DSP pieces on either side of 1/4 piece.
  • Place Tear Tape onto back of Double Gate Fold piece.  Attach to base between DSP pieces.
  • Add White piece to the inside.
  • Attach DSP pieces to outside.
  • Run the Pumpkin Pie square through the Stitched with Whimsy die that fits.
  • Stamp sentiment in Memento Black and cut out with 2nd smallest Stitched So Sweetly die.  Mount this onto the Pumpkin Pie square with Dimensionals, on point, as shown.
  • Now, mount left half of this square to left side of card.
  • Take 5" of Pale Papaya Open Weave Ribbon and color with Lt Pumpkin Pie Blend. Neat, huh!  It helps to start with a close color and enrich the color.  Add to card as shown with Mini Glue Dot.
  • Next, stamp inside sentiment in black.  Cut a "tulip border" from Pumpkin Pie scrap of DSP.  Add to inside of card.
  • Finish with Iridescent Rhinestones.
