Don’t you love cards that are different and interesting? I do, so when I saw a pattern for this curvy gatefold card I had to give it a try. I saw this on Linda Aarhus’ blog polkadotsandpaper. She even has a tutorial for how to make it, so I encourage you to stop over there.
For my card, I added the belly band. A little bit of the Delicate Details Lace Tape (retiring) in the center of the belly band gives it a pop.
When I send a “Thinking of You” card I like to put flowers on the card to brighten the day of the person receiving it 🙂 This card has a layered flower. I used three different flower punches in alternating colors with a Large Rhinestone (retiring) for bling!

Love the card. If it is possible, can you email me instructions on how to make it.Does it overlap on front or just tough in the middle it is hard to tell. I’d love to make it.
Thanks Maureen
