Good Vibes Only

Hey everybody, a very happy Thursday to you! I hope you’re having a great week. I’m thrilled to share that I’ve re-joined the ScrapbookingStore design team! I was gone less than a year and really missed playing with their monthly kits. With Ed’s most recent (additional) cancer diagnoses, I stepped away from one of my teams and considered stepping away from one other. I soon realized that I need to remain committed to my crafting and not alienate myself, and this gig was already in the works, so here I am – back at it doing what I love!

Now check out this cool inspiration project created with the September 2025 Scrapbook Kit with Upgrades. My inspiration for this double lower gate fold came from Lisa’s blog and features a card within a card! On this version, the short flap opens from right to left and the longer flap opens from left to right to reveal a small top-folding card with a sentiment inside. Lisa’s video is HERE but there are A LOT of videos on YouTube for this particular fold and I think they are all pretty much the same. You’ll love how easy it is!

I cut the card base and small inside card from CutCardStock Lessebo Pitch Black cardstock along with layering panels from an assortment of prints in the Carta Bella At Home Collection Kit.

To embellish this card, I used stickers from the sticker sheet along with die cuts from the Carta Bella At Home Frames & Tags and Rosie’s Studio Fanciful Gemstones (both from the upgrades).

I cut the inside sentiment panel from Neenah Classic Crest 80# Solar White cardstock and embellished it with a leftover strip of the patterned paper used on the long flap, and added a sentiment from the die cuts. Love how this turned out!
