Gatefold Anniversary Card

It's Fun Fold Friday here on my blog and today I'm sharing a Gatefold Card. Our son and his girlfriend are celebrating 20 years together and had a fun party last week with friends and family. A lot of their friends have been part of their lives since high school and were there at the beginning of the relationship. 

Anyhow, we had a great photo of them made into a canvas for them and this was the card ...


The card base is one I've had in my stash for years - there are still a few more in the package that I will have to remember to use. Since they are square they would also cost more to mail so they are best for cards we will be hand delivering - like this one!

I cut the open heart (Scrapbook .com) twice, sandwiching a transparency between them. I love the shine it gives, as well as the floating look.


I pulled out a couple of older Alpha dies (iCrafter & Lawn Fawn) to personalize the card, then stamped the sentiment (Taylored Expressions). I thought it was too light though so went over the words with a black fine-line pen and was much happier with it.

This is another card where the patterned paper does most of the work! This pad is several years old and by 49 & Market.
