I used the Stampin’ Up! Gathering Moments stamp set bundle and Gathering Together Specialty DSP from the upcoming September 2025 Online Exclusives to create a gate fold card to share with you today. I also did a video tutorial showing you how to create this on my YouTube channel here.
I started by adhering panels of patterned paper from the Gathering Together Specialty DSP (Online Exclusive item available September 3) to panels of Early Espresso card stock with Stampin’ Seal and then to the right and left side of a Basic Beige card base with Stampin’ Seal.
I stamped the leaves, mushroom and acorn images from the Gathering Moments stamp set (Online Exclusive item available September 3) in Cajun Craze, Basic Beige and Early Espresso inks on a panel of Basic White card stock. Then I adhered the stamped panel to a panel of Early Espresso card stock and then to the inside of the card base with Stampin’ Seal.
I wrapped a piece of Early Espresso card stock around the card base and then adhered the ends of the card stock together with Stampin’ Seal to create the belly band. I adhered a panel of Gathering Together DSP to a panel of Basic Beige card stock and then to the belly band with Stampin’ Seal. Then I cut a panel of Gathering Together DSP with one of the Gathering Moments Dies (Online Exclusive item available September 3). I adhered the die cut to the belly band with Stampin’ Seal.
I stamped the sentiment from the Gathering Moments stamp set in VersaMark ink on a panel of Basic Beige card stock, sprinkled the sentiment with gold embossing powder from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powder and then heat embossed it. I cut the sentiment out with one of the Stylish Shapes Dies, trimmed off one side and then adhered the die cut to the belly band with Stampin’ Seal. I stamped the leaves, berries, mushroom and acorn images from the Gathering Moments stamp set in Cajun Craze, Basic Beige and Early Espresso inks on a panel of Basic White card stock.
I cut the stamped images out with the Gathering Moments stamp set with the coordinating Gathering Moments Dies. I adhered the berries and mushroom die cuts with Mini Glue Dots to the belly band. I tied a bow with Early Espresso thread from the Early Espresso & Old Olive Linen Thread Pack (Online Exclusive item available September 3) and adhered it with a Mini Glue Dot to the belly band. I adhered the leaves and acorn die cuts with Stampin’ Dimensionals to the belly band and then added three Cajun Craze & Gold Dots to the belly band to finish the card front.
