Bloom boutique cascading gatefold card

 I just can stop playing with is beautiful shade of blue! Called Hydrangea Hue it's just always there at the moment so today's inspiration is a fun fold card using it! I'm calling this fun fold a cascading gatefold it's another simple fold that has real wow factor. The colour palette used is based around papers from the gorgeous Bloom Boutique dsp.  This oh so pretty pattern paper pack uses all 5 of the 2026-2028 In-Color's and features subtle peeks of gold foiling.

The fold it's self is created using a piece of cardstock measuring 10.5cm x 29.7cm (4¼" x 11") scored at 1.5cm, 3.5cm, 5.5cm and 7.5cm from each end (½", 1¼", 2" and 2¾" from each end).

You'll also need 2 piece of cardstock measuring 7.4cm x 9.5cm ( 2¾" x 3⅝"). And another 2 pieces each measuring 7.4cm x 6cm ( 2¾" x 2½")


The card stands nicely and folds flat for posting in a C6 (A2) envelope. 


The decoration is made using the Simply Beautiful stamps and dies. And the white mats are cut using the Beautifully Celebrated dies .

I hope you agree that the finished card is both pretty easy to create yet very elegant and that you'll have a go yourself. 

Have fun
