Ooh – I went all giddy and everything when I saw today's card technique – Double Fold Gate Card. My friend Rachel Tessman showed it me and I knew right away my club members would love it!! So, this was one of our Stamping Club Projects this month. And yes, it was a hit!!
Besides the fun fold, it also features the Apothecary Arts stamp set and matching Label Collection Framelit. Both of these products are from the 2012 Occasions Mini Catalog, and are currently still available. Check out the complete Carryover List for products still available!
Here's the basic measurements:
- 5-1/2" x 12" piece of Designer Series Paper
- Score at 2,4,8,10
- Turn and mark at 2-3/4 on both ends
- Watch the video for tips and how to create the diagonal cut

Absolutely love the Double Gate Card. This would be a great card to Stamp a stack of. Thanks for the inspiration.
loved that double gate fold card. you always explain things so good . love your blog
Love this!! I just sat down and did one, but added a little twist. My son is planning to become “officially” engaged soon, so I was thinking with the right paper, this could make a great invite. Once I adhered the triangle and folded it up, I had to take my triangle back off, and remove the glue from the top part from the part that is between the two folds, thus creating a skinny pocket on both sides, inside the card. This could hold an RSVP card, and directions. Or a bookmark, or a coupon for a free back rub or something. Thanks so much for sharing this! I can see this being used for so many things. : )
Deb – that is a great idea. Thanks for sharing!!
this is definately a WOW card!!! THANKS for sharing and the video is great!!
thanks for the video, Dawn….a picture truly is worth a thousand words! I have seen this demo’ed before but knew I could come back here for a “refresher course” before I tried it on my own and you did not disappoint! 😉
Thanks Jan!
