Make it Monday #56: Die Cutting Partial Images
Betsy Veldman did this weeks Make It Monday video on making partial die cuts. I decided to use the first Framed Out die to create a gatefold card. Creating the die cut was fairly simple, I chose the method of rolling my die part way in and then back out. I love Stampers Select cardstock, but as many of you know it isn't the easiest to fold or have it stay flat. I ended up putting some removable tape behind the die cut to keep my card closed, it shouldn't interfere with it when given to the recipient.

Such a clever take on the challenge, Tracey! I love the colors and I am falling in love with stars again. The interior message is perfect!
Wow, great idea to do a gate fold card for this challenge! I might have to try that! The card looks great in these colors, andI love the stars!
Super take on the challenge. I love a gate fold card, and it looks so cute with that image. Great colors, too.
What a fun idea!! I love how you card is folded and it's a very clever take on the challenge.
Love the cool opening and these fun colors, Tracey! Big hugs!!
Look at you getting all busy with your new supplies! I love it. ;-) Nice work on the partial die-cut challenge - you can tell I was intimidated, since I didn't even bother. Meh.
I love how you worked this one out. ;-)
