This floating gate fold card features the Hey Chick and Birthday Chick bundles that work so well together. The dies that are bundled with these two stamp sets cut a nice variety of accessories to enhance cards and 3D items you make with the stamp sets. I used many of them in making this card.
I demonstrated how to make a floating gate fold card during my Friday Facebook Live presentation using parts of both the Hey Chick and Birthday Chick bundles. Gather the supplies I used listed below with cutting and scoring measurements and then watch the embedded video from the Facebook Live.
