Gatefold Latch Card
SU’s Season of Chic Bundle and By the Bay DSP
I did not purchase SU’s Seaside Bay stamp set, but I loved the By The Bay DSP with its gold and pearl foil!! The sea shell stamp and die from SU’s Season of Chic Bundle makes the perfect latch for this thank you card.
Products needed to make this card can be found in my Online Store
Measurements:
- 5 1/2” x 8 1/2” cardstock for the card base
- Cut two panels of DSP 1 3/4” x 5 1/8”
- Cut two panels of cardstock 1 7/8” x 5 1/8”
- 2 1/2” x 6” DSP for the envelope flap
- White cardstock scraps for label and latch
- Score the card base at 2 1/8” on one side. Fold and burnish with a bone folder. Fold the opposite to meet in the middle and burnish with a bone folder. This works better than scoring the opposite side and folding to meet in the middle.
- Adhere the two DSP panels to the two cardstock panels. Adhere these to the panels on the card front.
- Stamp the shell and die cut it out. This is the latch for the gatefold. Adhere to the right side of the card front with dimensionals leaving the top of the latch free so the label will slide under it to keep the fold closed.
- Stamp the label with a sentiment.
- Adhere label to the left side of the card so that it can slide under the latch.
