DOUBLE GATEFOLD CARD
Measurements:

(2) Strips 1-⅛ x 5-⅜”

Instructions:
Cut card base and score. Fold on score lines. Achieve crisp edges with bone folder. Glue panels

I chose to glue down the double gatefold flaps but it is optional. See video tutorial.
When adding your die cut to the front of the card be sure to only add adhesive to the left side
panel so you don’t glue the gatefold shut.
Add embellishments.
Next, the SIDE GATEFOLD CARD!

(1) Strip 1-¼ x 5-¼”
(1) Panel 2-½” x 5-¼”
Insert: 4 x 5-¼” (Basic White)
Instructions:
Cut card base and score. Fold on score lines. Line up corners of cardstock before creasing with
bone folder so it’s nice and straight. Glue panel and strip.
Stamp greeting on die cut for card front and insert. Glue insert inside card.
When adding your die cut to the front of the card be sure to only add adhesive to the left side
panel so you don’t glue the gatefold shut. Add embellishments.
Finally, here's the BOOK BIND GATEFOLD CARD!
Measurements:
CARD BASE: 4-¼ x 11” Score: 2-⅛”, 3-⅜, 8-⅞”
Designer Paper:
(1) Strip 1 x 4”
(2) Panels 1-⅞” x 4”
Insert: 4 x 4” (Basic White)
Optional: (2) Strips of Ribbon (about 6 inches for first piece and 10 inches for the bow)
Optional: (2) 1/2 x 4" DSP strips for the inside of the card
Cut card base 4-¼ x 11” and score: 2-⅛”, 3-⅜, 8-⅞”. Fold on score lines. Achieve crisp edges
with a bone folder. Glue panels and strip onto card.
Stamp greeting on die cut for the front of card and insert.
NOTE: If you are adding ribbon to the book bind section of the card I like I did in the tutorial then
glue the edges of the ribbon inside the book bind strip before gluing this strip down.
With a book bind fold you glue the first panel (first score line) to the card and then your gatefold
panels open and close on this fun fold!
Add your 4 x 4 insert.
When adding your die cut to the front of the card be sure to only add
adhesive to the left side panel so you don’t glue the gatefold shut.
OPTIONAL: When I tie bows I usually cut two pieces of ribbon, 6” strip for the book bind strip
and 10” for the bowl. Once I have the bow in place I add a glue dot behind the knot to hold in
place. I know many of you prefer to keep the ribbon flat and not add the bow so this way you
can choose the look you prefer. Add embellishments.

Easy elegant cards with the Scalloped Wishes Bundle!
Vertical Layout
Horizontal Layout
The Scalloped Wishes Bundle is an online exclusive product that will be available to customers on March 3, 2026.
You can put this bundle in your starter kit right now (you get to choose the items you want in your starter kit) plus you will get the exclusive Stampin' Positioner for free until March 2, 2026!
For today's tutorial there are two layouts: horizontal and vertical versions with the scalloped ovals in this bundle!
Card Base: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2" Score: 4-1/4"
DSP Layer: 3-3/4 x 5"
Note: I will be using the Easter Joy Designer Series Paper today but I chose the non-Easter patterns for more of a Spring theme that would compliment this bundle.
Colors used for ovals: Pretty in Pink, Peach Pie, Shy Shamrock, Balmy Blue, Lemon Lolly, Crumb Cake, Basic White
As I've done in previous videos, I love creating a simple template from the negative of die cuts and then gluing it to the grid paper on the Stampin' Positioner so I can repeat stamp onto die cuts in multiple colors.
Being able to perfectly stamp both ovals at one time onto both die cuts is such a time saver! I am LOVING the exclusive Stampin' Positioner!
I loved creating the different combinations of ovals and even layering the small ones over the large ovals!
This is an easy technique of cutting the small oval in half - in this case vertically - and then gluing it to each side of the oval. Decorate your cards with all of the other lovely die cuts in this bundle!
Here is the horizontal version! Same steps!
Have fun layering your ovals! Here is the large oval with the greeting and then the small oval stacked on top of the large for an elegant multi-layered look!
If you are tired of Winter then this will be a crafting treat! This Scalloped Wishes Bundle also features greenery, flowers and dragonflies!
FREE SHIPPING! Three days only! February 18 -20, 2026
Balmy Blue *This is a simple version of the card* No split oval on the ends but still elegant and easy!
This color combo works with Easter Joy and the February 2026 Paper Pumpkin Kit: Celebrate Spring as well! This bundle will elevate your Spring and Easter cards and 3D projects!
Today we are making a set of Thank You cards with the Garden Poetry Suite which will be available to customers March 3, 2026 with the online exclusives release.
Demonstrators and people purchasing the starter kit can get the Garden Poetry Suite right now as preorder items!
I will also be using the Stampin' Positioner today. This is a NEW and EXCLUSIVE tool that you can only get in the starter kit from now to March 3, 2026 and it's FREE when you purchase the starter kit!
I really wanted to get a feel for the Stampin' Positioner since it is also a new tool to me and it absolutely made making multiple cards easier and more efficient!
Repeat stamping is a dream! While there is a little trial and error with all new tools this, overall, was very easy to use and created fantastic, crisp images throughout the process!
