Reverse Gate fold card

This was written just before Valentines day and I forgot to post it.  So instead of deleting I thought I'd post it now anyway,  Sorry for the delay.


Valentines Day is nearly here and I am obsessed with fancy fold cards.  Today is one I showed earlier in the week though is was undecorated.  It is a simple gate fold card but you decorate the back side instead of the gate fold side.  Nothing special...nothing new...but oh so fun to do.  You can make this as simple or fussy as you'd like and it will always turn out fabulous and the receiver will be impressed.

This one I used the scallop blade on my old cutterpede paper trimmer.  Boy when that blade goes bad I'm going to be so sad because replacements are so hard to find.  The paper is from a Recollection paper pad called

Next I decided to make one for kids.  I had to search the Internet for retro valentine images.  Remember when you could buy just a box of Valentines for your kids and there wasn't a specific theme?  I looked all over for those generic Valentines but everyone I found was themed.  Such as Paw Patrol, Marvel Hero's, Minions,  what about just a cute little girl holding a valentine behind her back or a kitty with a Valentine in its mouth.  You know....just Valentines!!
Well I found this one and it is pretty cute.

Both of these I think turned out cute but my favorite is the first one.

Til Next Time

HAPPY CARDING!
