Gatefold Window Card

Gatefold Window Card – I found this "technique" on Stampin' Connection and just had to do it!!  LOVE it!  You can see my previous card here and I just had to try it again making it a regular A2 sized card.

Cut Venetian Romance DSP 5 ¼” x 4” (3 pieces)

Fold card base on score lines.  Add the 4th from the smallest Labels Framelit inside the card base lining it up in the center with cutting side UP.  Add a piece of the 5 ¼” x 4” Venetian Romance DSP over the top and run through the Big Shot

 Move the framelit to the top of the DSP and
trace around with a pencil.

 Using snips, cut the dsp exactly in half. You are also going to remove a little bit of paper from the
top and bottom where it joins. This will keep the border continuous around the card. I trimmed about 1/8" from either side.
