First Card of 2012

Hi bloggers. Well, I've finally gotten back to my crafting table for a bit. Decided to make a fancy-fold card, just cause I always find those to be extra fun!

This fold is called a "Gate Fold" card. It's very simple, and there's so much you can do with it! If you're interested in trying one of these cards yourself, head on over to Split Coast Stampers  for the tutorial. I'm sure you'll enjoy making it too!! :)

Here's my card:

I used some new stamps...and of course my cuttlebug to do the background. Simplicity always works for me :) TFL :)

Gate-Fold Christmas

One of the new ideas we discussed at the kiddie crop I was at on Tuesday was Gate-Fold cards. They're very simple to make -- and there's so much you can do to change them up!

This is one I made -- again not very elaborate, but I WAS just learning! LOL My next ones are definitely gonna have more details -- although for the most part, simplicity works for me. I love the cuttlebug folder used here -- snowflakes. Fits perfectly with the whole card. :)

TFL :)
