Gatefold Magnolia Card by Anne Thompson

I've been revisiting different card forms recently and decided to make a gatefold card for this post. I started with a purchased pre-scored card but it's quite easy to cut and score a card yourself with many tutorials available online. I used the new magnolia papers and rub-ons to decorate the blank card. Here's the front of the finished card:

to make this card

start with a blank white gatefold card base
add the two front panels using one of the plaid papers from MAGNOLIA PLAID PP1021, each cut 2 1/8 X 5 1/2
cut a piece of white card stock 3 X 4 to make a panel and attach it to the left flap of the gatefold card being careful to add adhesive to only the part that will touch that flap
add a piece of the same plaid cut 2 3/4 X 3 3/4 on top of that white card stock panel
on another piece of white card stock add the flowering magnolia branch rub-on from the MAGNOLIA RUB-ON TRANSFERS RUB 101; trim that to 2 1/2 X 3 1/2; and add it to the panel to finish the front of the card

inside

cut a piece of flowered paper from MAGNOLIA GROVE PP1022 to 4 X 5 1/4 and add it to the center of the opened card
cut a piece of white card stock 3 1/2 X 4 3/4, add one of the single magnolia blossom rub-ons in the lower right corner, and add that panel to the center of the opened card
