Cross Over Gate Fun Fold Card

Back in September when I was receiving Birthday Cards from Debbie Henderson's Random Act of Kindness card club, this Cross Over Gate Fun Fold was one of the styles of cards I received. I had never seen this fun fold before, so I thought it would be a perfect one to give Lori and Anne when we were together for OnStage at Home.  They loved their cards! 

Since I am already in love with the Gingerbread and Peppermint Suite, it was easy to use some of the Designer Series Paper and pieces of the Memories and More Card Pack to build these two cards.

The secret to this card is how you glue the two front rectangles. Half of One rectangle is glued on the upper left front and half of the other rectangle on the lower right front.

First Card front with matching envelope flap.

Fully open inside of the first card.

Flipped over backside of the first card.

The Second Card front with matching envelope flap.

Fully open inside of the second card.

The fully opened backside of the second card.

Did you notice the partial snowflakes are hidden behind the flaps to surprise when the card is opened?

Supplies used to make these cards:

Cinnamon Cider cardstock - cut 5-1/2" x 8-1/2", score at 2-1/8" and 6-3/8"

Real Red cardstock rectangles - 2-5/8" x 4"

Decorative pieces of Designer Series Paper or Memories and More Cards - 2-3/8" x 3-3/4"

Now you take it from here - Decorate and embellish as you would like.

Don't forget to add a 2-3/8" x 6" piece of Designer Series Paper on the back envelope flap to create a coordinated set. 

This Cross Over Gate Fun Fold Card has so many holidays and occasions that it can be used for. The only limit is your imagination. Give it a try!
