Tri-Fold Gate Card Valentine Card

 This is a Tri-Fold Gate Card for Valentine's Day or an Anniversary.   I used Stampin' Up! Marina Mist, Bashful Blue and Red Glimmer card stock.  The Whisper White paper was sponged with Marina Mist Classic Ink.

Paper punches are another weakness of mine.  I absolutely love them.  I used two different size heart Stampin' Up! paper punches in the card above.

Heart small, item #117193
Full Heart Extra-Large, item #119883

Didn't the two punches work well together in this card.   Because the Stampin' Up! glimmer paper (item #121790 in Red only) is flexible, I was able to punch using the smaller punch (new style paper punch).   The small paper punches are just not made for thick paper, so you can bend them especially on other brands of glimmer paper that are thick and coarse. 

I will have tutorials on my blog soon for both the Tri-Fold Gate Card and also the regular Gate Card.  Both will fit in an A2 envelope (one that fits a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" card).
