Curvy Gatefold Birthday Card


This Curvy Gatefold die set was one that I got for my Birthday, and I had to play with it right away. However, I'm just now sharing the card! I made it for our middle daughter's birthday so couldn't post it on social media until we had given it to her.  For this one, I added a pretty belly band that slides off to open and reveal the sentiment inside. 


The belly band was decorated with a flower and leafy sprigs and I cut some of the layers from pink mirrored card stock. 


I love a die set that comes with layering dies - especially for tricky curves like this one. I only used one layering die on the front, but used both of them inside. The bottom layer was cut from pink mirrored cardstock so there is lots of shimmer and shine.


Having been asked how many cards I make I thought it would be fun to keep track this year. Many of my posts include more than a single card or project and below is my tally.
