Conversation Bubbles Angled Gatefold Card

How fun is the shape of this Angled Gatefold Card?  And it's so easy to create too!  There are many design variations out there, but the measurements of this one were inspired by Denise MacCabe.

Conversation Bubbles Angled Gatefold Card

Bundles: Conversation Bubbles Stamp Set + Conversation Bubbles Dies (cling: 160637).  Stamps: Party Puffins (cling: 155054).  Ink: Mango Melody (147093), Melon Mambo (147051), Coastal Cabana (147097).  Card/Paper: Mango Melody (147013), Melon Mambo (119981), Basic White (159228), Enjoy the Journey 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper (160586).  Tools: Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine (149653), Small Blending Brushes (160518), Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue (110755), Mini Stampin' Dimensionals (144108).

The card base is 29.6 cm x 14.8 cm (11-1/2" x 5-3/4") and I have scored at 9.6 cm and 20 cm (3-3/4" and 7-3/4").  Then the fun part begins!  Measure 2.5 cm (1") in from the bottom left and bottom right corners and make your first pencil marks.  Then measure 4 cm (1-1/2") down from the top left and top right corners and make your second pencil marks.  Now for cutting the fun, angled shape... cut from the first pencil mark to the second pencil mark on each side.  Then cut from the second pencil mark to the top of the score line.

Angled Gatefold Card Cutting Guide

A fun-shaped card needs a fun set of stamps to match!  I have used the stamps and dies in the Conversation Bubbles Bundle to create a collage of sentiments and comic-like speech bubbles and paired it with the lively hand-painted chevron patterned paper from the Enjoy the Journey Designer Series Paper pack.  In fact, it was that paper that inspired the colour combination on this greeting card!

Those fun sentiments are from the Party Pufffins stamp set and the fonts pair so well with the Conversation Bubbles Bundle.

So, must-have products in this card that are retiring... the versatile Enjoy the Journey Designer Series Paper, the fun Party Pufffins stamp set, plus the Mango Melody cardstock and ink pad.  You have missed out on getting the Conversation Bubbles Dies as they have sold out, but the Conversation Bubbles stamp set is still available.  Be sure to get these products from the Last Chance Products Sale while they are still available!
