Fantastic Friday - Geared Up Garage Birthday Interlocking Gate Fold Card (FREE Tutorial!)





Good Morning Everyone! My Fantastic Friday Share is a Birthday Interlocking Gate Fold Card created with the Stampin' Up! Geared Up Garage stamp set and coordinating Garage Gears Thinlits Dies. I had been wanting to try this Card Fold for awhile, and this Bundle was perfect for it. I used the Classic Garage 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper on the background, then I used the Layering Ovals Framelits Dies to create the Interlocking Focal Point. After coloring the car image with the Stampin' Blends alcohol markers, I stamped my outside and inside sentiments. Finally, I embellished with the Classic Garage Metal Elements. I just love how everything came together! Look below for the FREE Tutorial!

4. Use the Layering Ovals Framelits Dies to make the Interlocking Focal Point, by layering a larger oval over a smaller oval and running through the Big Shot Machine. This will leave an oval frame. Use the same Layering Oval Framelits for the Classic Car Focal Point.
