Gatefold Sunflowers

Good Morning everyone

So while making my sunflower edger cards i thought you could turn them into a gatefold design. 


Card size approx.6x10"..  Using soft gold pearl cardstock i die cut 2 sunflower panels, i then cut a piece of soft gold pearl card to size for the main section of the card, i scored and folded the edge of the sunflower panels and then adhered them to the middle panel.  I took a contrasting patterned paper and lined the inside, this also hid the joins on the card.  I added colour to the sunflowers using oxide inks.
I die cut some butterflies - soft gold for the inside and using the same paper i lined the inside for the 2 butterflies on the front.  Lots of gems & glitter glue to embellish. 


Showing it stood up side on

I added a panel to the back of the card to write my greeting on, i used the same paper i lined the card with.



Items Used:
Creative expressions papercuts sunflower edger die
Sizzix butterfly dies
Stampin up sassy sentiment stamp
12x12 Ombre paper pad - the works
Oxide inks lemonade, campfire, twisted citron
Payper box soft gold pearl card

Thank you all for stopping by once again.  Hugs Emmax

What an exceptional gate-fold card, Emma. I love the subtle colours you've used against that pearl gold cardstock. The delicate die-cut is spectacular! Thanks so much for joining our Watercooler Wednesday Challenge this fortnight.
