Angled – Welcome

I love the symmetry of this card and the color blends with the True Blue Floral designer series paper from Stampin’ Up. I used the Mixed Labels stamps and dies to finish it off.

To create this card, you just need a few things:

Balmy Blue card stock (Stampin’ Up)
Night of Navy card stock (Stampin’ Up)
White card stock
True Blue Floral designer series paper (December 2025 Product of the Month Stampin’ Up)
Mixed Labels stamp set and dies (Stampin’ Up)
Night of Navy ink (Stampin’ Up)
Paper trimmer
Adhesive of choice
Pop dots

From a piece of Balmy Blue card stock cut a card base t 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half to 4 ¼” x 5 ½”. With your Night of Navy card stock cut two pieces to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” and one to 3 1/8” x 3 1/8”. Take the True Blue Floral designer series paper pack and find the large floral piece with the Balmy Blue background, and the white and navy leaves with Balmy Blue background. From the large floral piece cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼” and a second to 1 ½” x 4” and from the leaf paper cut a piece to 3” x 3”.

Adhere your 3” x 3” leaf paper onto the 3 1/8” x 3 1/8” Night of Navy piece and then cut diagonally (watching direction of your paper) into two triangles. Adhere one of your 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” pieces to the front of your card base and then the large rose piece to the front of that. Now adhere each triangle along the outside right and left edges, centered from top to bottom, the tips will cross slightly in the middle.

With the “your kindness made my day” greeting from the Mixed Labels stamps and stamp on a piece of scrap white card stock in Night of Navy ink. Use the larger size label die with the decorative edge to cut out your stamped greeting. Adhere to the front center with pop dots to raise up slightly.

For the inside adhere your last piece of Night of Navy paper and then the white piece of card stock. Adhere the large floral strip to your white inside piece leaving about 1/8” of white showing to the left side. Then take the “thank you” greeting from the Mixed Labels stamps and stamp centered on the upper white area in Night of Navy ink.

What an adorable way to say thank you to someone for their kindness.

This angled gate fold card evolved into a different card than it started as, but I am now happy with it. This Painterly Pair suite is quickly becoming one of my favorites from Stampin’ Up as I just love the colors, they fall right in my wheelhouse, and the papers are so pretty.

With so me Petal Pink card stock cut the back card base to 5” x 5 ½” and score at 3/8” and 4 5/8” and fold both side up and in. Cut two pieces to 4 ¼” x 5 ½” and score both at 2 1/8”. Mark down 2” and cut your angle and do the opposite direction with the other piece. From the white card stock cut two pieces to 1 7/8” x 5 ¼” and angle to match the inside angles.

Take your Painterly Pear designer series paper and find the white sheet with the pears and pink flowers, cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼” for the back of your card. Find the Petal Pink piece with the small designs and cut two pieces to 1 7/8” x 5 ¼” and angle to match the front back panels. Now get the Petal Pink piece with pears and flowers and cut that to 1 7/8” x 4 ¼” and angle to match the front two panels.

With a scrap piece of white card stock and your black Momento ink, find the small pear outline stamp and stamp on your card stock. Then with Darling Duckling ink stamp the inside stamp to color your pears and give them some dimension. With your Pecan Pie Dark Blender Pen color the tree branch. For the leaves I colored them with the Old Olive Dark Blender Pen and then outlined the lower halves of them with the Mossy Meadow Dark Blender Pen. For the pears I blended colors from the outside lower edge in with Mossy Meadow Light, Old Olive Light and then Petal Pink Dark Blender Pens leaving the edges jagged instead of solid for more dimension.

Take a scrap piece of Petal Pink and die cut out a label that is about 1” x 2”. Adhere the pears to the left side. Take a label from the Perfect Pears dies and cut, then stamp the “A Good Friend is a gift” in Old Olive ink. Adhere that with pop dots to the right side of the label, overlapping the pears slightly.

Now start building your card by taking the Petal Pink card base and each of the Petal Pink angled pieces and adhere one of the angled pieces to each side on the two tabs. Cut the tabs where they hang out over the angle. Fold each side out at the score to form your angled gate fold. Now adhere your tag to the left front panel of your card with the other half hanging over the other panel (but not adhered to the panel).

Now open the card and adhere each of the white pieces to each side of the white pear paper. With the Free as a Bird stamp set and Old Olive ink, stamp the “your friendship means the world to me” greeting on the left white panel, and the “thanks for being you” greeting no the right white panel.

This card started with a belly-band wrapped in the Mossy Meadow and Gold Trim ribbon and a label on it layered with more stuff and it was just too much on the card so I changed it over to the label. You could still do a belly-band but I would keep it fairly plain if you do. I am now in love with this card and I always love gate fold cards.
