Gated Christmas Trees

 You can find a tutorial for this trifold or gate fold card HERE. I like the simplicity of this card. The green foiled trees on the vellum make this card glimmer and shine. It definitely sets it apart without getting glitter everywhere. What do you think?

Stamps:

   Winter Woods

Paper:

   Whisper White A-2

   Call Me Clover 4 x 3 

   Holiday Fancy Foil Vellum 1-7/8 x 5-1/4 (2)

Ink:

   Call Me Clover

Technique:

   Gate Fold Card

Accessories:

   In the Woods Framelits

   Glue Dots

   Dimensionals

First, I stamped and die cut my tree.

Next, I cut my panels of vellum. These are attached using glue dots.

I then adhered the Christmas tree with dimensionals. I did add another panel of Whisper White to the inside of the card. I feel this finishes the card nicely. Since the card base is Whisper White, this panel is optional.

Fun Snowflake

 Make your card interesting by creating fun folds. This card uses a gate fold. The two panels open outward from the middle, just like a double gate.

Stamps:

   Snow Wonder

Paper:

   Highland Heather 4-1/4 x 8-1/2 scored at 2-1/8 from both ends

   Snowflake Splendor DSP 1-7/8 x 4 (2)

Ink:

   Pacific Point

Technique:

   Gate Fold Card

Accessories:

   Wooden Snowflake Elements

   Foil Snowflake

   Glue Dots

   Adhesive

There is a tutorial for this fold on SplitCoast Stampers. You can find it HERE. I tweaked it just a bit.

The foil snowflake is from my stash. These have been discontinued, but I have to use what I have on hand. I added a wooden snowflake to add a bit of weight to the gate. 

I also stamped a couple of trees to the inside or the right gate. Have a look.

Of course, you can also get more elaborate and adorn the inside of the card a bit more. I like to keep things simple. What do you think?
