Hiya sistahs, happy Thursday with Sandiebella !
Today Sandiebella teaches us how to make a Floating Gatefold Halloween Card
Score both floating mechanisms on the short side at 0.5″ and 1″
On the card base, cut across the 0.5″ score line and then cut diagonally to the inner score lines.
With the inside of the card facing up, fold in on the 1.5″ score lines and then fold back the 0.5″ score lines. Crease well with a bone folder
Apply adhesive to the 0.5″ sections then, keeping the score lines pressed flat, adhere the large panels down, lining up the outer edges with the edges of the card base.
Apply double sided tape to the underneath of the inner 0.5″ section. Line up with the bottom of the card and adhere approx 1/8″ in on the designer paper. Repeat on the opposite side.
Apply adhesive to the top of the pull mechanism and adhere the small panels – lining up the bottom and outer edges
Stamp the sentiment onto the white card strip. Adhere the greeting panel towards the top and then adhere the sentiment across the bottom.
Adhere both Squidgy DINO Trick and Squidgy GHOST ‘standing’ on the sentiment strip.
Centre the belly band card across the front of the card then fold both ends around to the back, leaving a little bit of wiggle room so that the band can slip on and off easily. Apply adhesive on each end and secure together.
Cut a 3″ black card circle and a 2.75″ green paper circle. Adhere them together then adhere the Squidgy WITCH using foam tape/dots.
