Hi, Robin- hope you are having a blast on vacation. As I was enjoying this wonderful video tutorial and hitting the thumbs up , I was picturing you getting notification that someone (ME!) is viewing a video you made over a year ago. I wonder if the "cool" of that ever wears off.

[@reallyrobinstamps]

Wow, LouAnne! You are so kind. No, the cool never wears off I guarantee it! I appreciate every comment and every view and everyone who learns something new.☺️

[@francesinglis6078]

Great card I’ve never made one but after watching this I will be trying it starting on my Christmas cards 😊

[@marykbennett8158]

I like that you mention lots of design options

[@reallyrobinstamps]

Hi Mary! Thank you for your comment. I'm glad you like all the possibilities of gatefold cards! 😄

[@cindypurvis2485]

I love the tip of how to create the 2nd fold. I make A-6 cards and have been trying to get the measurements right for a while now. Your tip just to fold to the first panel is Genius! Thank you so much!!

[@reallyrobinstamps]

Hi Cindy and thank you! Folding the second gate this way was a game-changer for me too! Now I can approach this fold without hesitation. So glad you said hello 👋😁

[@cindypurvis2485]

@@reallyrobinstamps I am definitely going to try it and teach it to my students at my card & envelope making class at the local Seniors Center next month. Thanks for sharing your talents with us!

[@Its.me_Christina]

Great tutorial!!! I learned SO much!!! I absolutely love the snail card - I regret not getting that stamp set now. Lol

[@reallyrobinstamps]

Yay! I'm so happy that you enjoyed these gatefold cards and hope that you give them a try!😁

[@barbarahayes2268]

I have made a gate fold cared before, but I really like the buckle fold you did for keeping the last card closed.

[@reallyrobinstamps]

Thank you!😁 I had a a lot of fun with these cards. Hope you get to make one soon!

[@amymcmillan3796]

I enjoyed making the last card. I have butterfly paper that worked perfectly. I made two. On the second one, I made the mistake of putting the two front panels on the left and the middle section on the right. Amazingly it opened and closed more naturally and just looks better. I took a lot of time to figure out 1/3 of 5 inches and 4.75 inches = have to break down to 16th .. thank you so much for sharing. I will be making more for Mother's Day.🙂

[@reallyrobinstamps]

Hi Amy! I love that you figured out the math for me, thank you! I'm glad you had fun with this gatefold!😊

[@gertrudechouinard4053]

I’m always amazed at how many different ideas you come up with. Thanks so much for the inspirations. Love it!

Love the way you used the first stamp inside of the card and the lighter, second stamp on your embellishment! No waste! How smart!!!

[@reallyrobinstamps]

Hi Mary! Thank you for watching and commenting. Once in awhile I come up with a no waste solution!!🤣

[@doloresraml6539]

I don’t makes gate fold cards because I never get them creased right. After watching your trick, I might have to give it a try again. Lots of beautiful cards.

[@reallyrobinstamps]

Hi Dolores! I was the same way as you were - not loving it when things don't line up correctly. I learned this trick from someone too and it was happily mind-blowing! You should definitely give gatefold cards another go.😆

[@mariaelenasantiago3313]

Aww your husband did a great job. I am going to try and do this card.

[@reallyrobinstamps]

I will absolutely share your kind words with him! Thank you!😄

[@francesinglis6078]

Love the card I’m doing my Christmas ones just now have you got any videos on C C

[@reallyrobinstamps]

Thank you again, Frances!😁 By CC you mean Christmas cards? If so, I have just a couple videos with Christmas cards. Patchwork Stack & Cut, and Perfectly Slanted. But there are a lot of templates throughout that can be used to make Christmas cards by changing up the paper or stamp set.

[@reallyrobinstamps]

Hi Frances! I'm happy you are trying this project - it is never too late for a fun fold design! Thank you for saying hi!

[@patriciamora2915]

If you put the foam dots on the circle side wouldn’t it hold the other piece over it better

[@reallyrobinstamps]

Hi Patricia! I appreciate the tip!😄

[@peggyedwards8850]

It’s lovely but hard when people can’t afford all the inks, is colouring in pencils such as effective ?

[@reallyrobinstamps]

Hi Peggy! I appreciate building your collection slowly and with purpose. You can do so much with pencils. 😁

[@liascharm12]

Hi can you please tell me which paper it is ???

[@reallyrobinstamps]

Hi Lisa! Which paper from which project please?

[@11kmay]

I didn't mean to dislike this, it was an accidental touch on the wrong image, Sorry

[@reallyrobinstamps]

Hi Kim! No worries! This also happens to me too!😁
