How To Make A Double Gate-Fold Card Using World Of Good

Hello Friends!

Today I’m here with a fancy fold, “Double Gate-Fold Card“. I made this featuring the World Of Good product series from the Stampin’ Up ’20-’21 Annual Catalog.  This suite of products is amazing for making masculine cards, scrapbooking, if you love to travel, or just a pick-me-up card for male or female.  The colors of the paper are so rich and much of the paper has brass foil accents.  I’d also like to point out the Old World Paper Embossing Folder.  I think this folder is becoming one of my favorites.  It adds so much texture!

I ventured into the world of video for this one.  It’s my first-ever YouTube video, so please be kind… I know there’s some room for improvement and I’ll be working on better quality as I go forward with videos!  In the meantime, feel free to snicker and snort, even laugh out loud. It’s okay, I can’t see you!!! Just please bear with me as I work out the kinks!!!

As I note in the video, the paper colors and measurements are listed below, and all of the other products used to make this card are below as well.  If you wish to purchase any of the items, simply click on a product link to be taken to my online Stampin’ Up store!  As always, I’m here to help!  If my instructions in the video aren’t clear, you need help placing an order, or you have other questions or requests, please click on the “Contact” button at the top of this post to reach out to me!

So, with no further ado, “HOW TO MAKE A DOUBLE GATE-FOLD CARD USING WORLD OF GOOD”!  (I’d say go pop some popcorn, pour yourself an ice-cold drink and settle in, but the video isn’t that long! 😉

Masculine colors and images for fast and easy masculine cards

Do You Struggle With Masculine Cards, Too? World Of Good To The Rescue!

Hello Friends,

As I mentioned in my last post, masculine cards are always more difficult for me to come up with ideas for.  Perhaps because so many of the stamp sets I own are floral or just seem more feminine in nature.  I also like to dress up my cards with embellishments, i.e. ribbons, gems, etc.  Again, making them feel more girly.  However, Stampin’ Up has knocked it out of the park with the new World of Good Suite.   The colors are more “earthy” tones perfectly befitting of a masculine card.

My husband and I love to travel, so this set speaks to me from that aspect as well.  I foresee some scrapbook pages happening in my future also!  I can’t wait to play with these products more!

However, I needed another Father’s Day card, and I needed it FAST!

By now, if you follow my blog, you know my absolute favorite product for FAST cards!  Yep, the Memories & More Card Pack!  The World of Good Card Pack didn’t let me down either.  As with all of the M&M Card Packs, the cards are in two sizes, the smaller cards are double-sided, some with foil accents, some with sentiments pre-printed, and there are four sheets of card-stock stickers also included.  Shall I say… perfect for a fast masculine card!

A quick look through the stack of cards, I found the sentiment I wanted, added a few of the stickers,  the metal Antiqued Corners (also part of the suite), and lickety-split, I had a gorgeous card ready for giving!  Love it!!
