I recently shared the instructions for a simple gatefold card (June 22) which we created in a class earlier this year.

Don't forget to see all the other samples of gatefold cards from my Fancy Folds Page ( top right in the header of this page ) I hope you have a creative week and remember, "don't just post online, post something pretty!" cheers, Liz
