This card looks like lots of fun to make and to give. I have a few people who would be thrilled to receive this design for their birthday. For my first go at a new design, I use retired DSP being sure I don’t mess up my “good” DSP. I’m sure with your instructions, I’ll be able to make it perfectly. As always I appreciate your great tutorials with pictures and diagrams. Why should I have to re-invent the wheel, right? Have a great weekend.
I’ve had SO MUCH FUN making this gate fold explosion card. I love that you showed how to make the fold inside 3 different ways. The suggestion to use copy paper for a sample really helped. I’ve now made 6 cards and am hooked! Thanks so much, Connie.
Awesome card! This came exactly on time as I was wondering what fun card to make for my soon to be 13 yo goddaughter.
