Interlocking Gate Fold



Hi crafters!  Today's video card is a bit of a different card for me, but a really interesting one to do.  The New York Collection works absolutely perfectly for this sort of gatefold card too!

Buy from Joanna Sheen








The finished dimensions are 6" x  6" in size.  All for now, Sue x

Hello Sue, this is brilliant, love the concept of the pieces interlocking. Very dramatic colours, but a favourite combination of mine. Great video showing the construction steps, will give it a try, hopefully will get my glue in the right places. Have a lovely day. Bx

Oh my - a wake-up card, very bright and well, very bright! Clever construction technique, Sue, and not half as difficult as it looks at first glance. Can see it in lots of colourways. Not too sure about the slider band but can leave it off.
Thanks for the very clear video - now, what can go wrong in attempting this lol?

Ecco of Sheffield said...

Morning Sue
What a beautiful and fantastic way to start a day. I have looked at this card on various sites and thought how wonderful it looks but never thought that it might just be hiding a surprise. Your colours today are very bold and just enhance the format of today's gift. I shall be trying my take as I have a gift to make for a dear friend who will just love the idea of this gift. It has also been filed into my K&N file for my crafty friends to do. It should be a very interesting afternoon when I ask them to make it and I wonder who will be the first to put the glue on the wrong side or glue all round instead of just half way.

Steph - hope you're a little more settled this morning and getting organised. Just remember one step at a time. Hugs.
Sandra - hope you're now recovering from your very busy weekend.
Norah - I'm missing you young lady. Hope all is well.

I'm off now for a cup of coffee and then to get everything ready for Knit & Natter this afternoon as it's my turn (it seems to come round very quickly)to demo and I'm always afraid of forgetting something or of not having cut as many pieces that I should have. Why do we put ourselves in these places which raise our BPs.

To all in pain or suffering I hope your day gets better. To everyone please take care and stay safe. It's very cold and slippy this morning. See you tomorrow.
Janet x

Craftysusan said...

Great card Sue and lovely to see a different style of card with a tutorial. Can't wait to watch it tonight. Just wish I had a bit more time to craft. You are so lucky doing a job which is so creative. Thank you again for all the inspiration. I made 3 anniversary cards on the weekend using your dies and by copying your designs. I'm sure you wouldn't mind as you are so generous with your ideas. Take care. xx

Sonia Stephenson said...

Hi Sue. Lovely card again today. Love the bold colours and this collection of dies. Looking forward to watching the video later after work. Have a lovely day. Hugs to all xxx

Glenharon said...

Good morning Sue and the fabulous wilsonettes,
Wasn't quite into this card until i seen it getting made and it is most striking indeed Sue. What most took me by surprise is that it is a "real" card!!! What are you trying to do to us Sue, giving us heart attacks. Thank you Sue for a very striking card that i think i will make a version of for my daughters FIL 50th birthday.
What a day we are having at Glenochil, the snow is coming down and forgetting to stop and his lordship has banned me from going out to meet my friend. The woman across the road has those solar panels on her roof, well i don't think they will be working today some how as i can't see them nor my lovely hills because of the white out. If anyone is out and about today see if you can order me up some energy as i feel like a duracell that is all pooped out, i wouldn't even have the energy to light a 2 watt bulb.
Janet flower, have a lovely day at your k&n and try and stop worrying as it doesn't do your blood pressure any good at all. You have cut all you need and triple checked it so you have nothing to worry about, just enjoy yourself. I'm crocheting lego bricks at the moment to make a blanket for the wee fella coming. I have royal blue, red, yellow, orange so far but need to find a bright green as well and then surely teeny can't tell me it is a girls blanket? Have a great day flower and all the rest of my Wilsonette angels, i send hugs of all shapes and sizes to both on blog and not at the moment, i am hoping that you can find yourselves able to come back soon.
Love and crafty hugs
Norah (Glenochil)

Nananne said...

Stunning card! Interesting and different, I love the Madison square die and use it every chance I get!
Thanks Myra! I completely forgot to comment yesterday , too much going on! anyway good to hear you are having a lovely holiday and great weather , ( hope it lasts, as really that's what we go for ) pity we'll just miss one another as it would have been fun to meet up.
Look forward to some exciting colour ways after you've seen the Nothern Lights , Sue! Have a wonderful time xo

Hi Sue,
Very striking card, and so different for you! I really do like it and will have a go. Hope you are enjoying your holiday. Norah, if you do go out, please be careful - we don't want you falling over. We have snow today, but only a light covering thankfully not like you. Just off to see my aunt now as she's got a nasty chest infection but the antibiotics she's been given are making her sick and she's not eating - not really what she needs in her condition. Sending love and hugs to everyone. Stay safe and warm, love Alison xx

Steph Cotterill said...

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes. Firstly I want to send my heartfelt sympathy to Sheila (Ginger) Thinking of you during this most awful time in your life.

Well Sue, what a change for you to make a card like this. Your tutorial is so very informative and helpful, but you know me, cag handed, crafting numpty and one brain cell, doesn't bode well, would you like my list of stupid mistakes I could make with this lol although it would make a really good blooper you tube video ' How not to make an interlocking gatefold card' by Stupid Steph lol.
Its fab Sue, and imagin all the colour combo's you could use, lush. Im going to have a bash at this, it will be totally hilarious.
Hope you are getting organised for your 'work free holiday' when you arrive at any of your check in's your luggage and 'person' will be frisked for paper and pen and confiscated, so any idea's you have will have to be stored in your grey matter lol.
Have a wonderful time Sue.
Sending love to Sam and all our friends that dont feel so good today, my basket of hugs is full for you to take as many as you need.
Love you.

cr@fty said...

Good morning Sue
One of my favourite things to do when making cards is to try and make different style ones. Today you've given me another brilliant idea for me to try. It will look good in what ever colour you make it whether you want it dramatic as you have done or in pastels. Thanks for sharing your ideas.

I love the concept of this card. The interlocking idea is brilliant! I'm not sure about the red and black, it's not my favorite, nor is the sides being different colors.

Hi Sue, certainly a striking card. I love the design but am struggling to cope with the colours so if I were to attempt something similar it would have to be in toning rather than contrasting colours.

Sheila Ginger - my heartfelt sympathies for you and Nikki at this awful time. You are both in my thoughts.

So very sad to read Lynda's message and to hear you have lost your husband, and know how hard it will be for Nikki, too.

Looking forward to watching the video and trying this, as I love my New York dies. I was a bit dubious at first, as the colour combination doesn't appeal to me in this style, but I shall try putting my own twist on it and I am sure it will look great, as do all your designs Sue.
You just make it look so easy!!

A great colour combination, and fantastic dies you have used to. I really love the New York collection. It really has become a favourite "go to set." I love the wrap around the card and those fab Camelia Dies that you used. I really want / need these flower dies. I have your Faux Quilled Leaves and I use them a lot. They are fab.
Thank you Sue for all that you do. Sending much love and big hugs today love from Tres x x x

Lots of love to all the Wonderful Wilsonettes from Tres x x x

Hi Sue. I know i am very late with my comment today but i have just got out of bed after suffering with my back. It just didn't want to work this morning but then i should be used to it after 15years of having back trouble but never mind my troubles as there is always someone worse off than yourself. Today card is stunning, love the striking colours and so different from your usual cards. Thank you for a very informative video as you explain everything perfectly. Have a great holiday to recharge your batteries and i am sure you will have loads of new ideas ready for your return.
Best Wishes.

Hi Sue

A card that could be used for many occasions, Invites etc.

Have a fantastic and well earned break. I can't believe you are going away with no computer, you will be gnawing at your knuckles by the time you get home, I know I would. Have a FAB time Sue.

Steph, I will be thinking of you XX

Kind regards to all :-)

Your bright card has a look of "yin and yang" to me. Interesting way to "weave" the pieces back together. You are so clever!

Hi, Sue saw you demo this card on one of your Weekender shows. Will have to give it a go, but in a different colourway ( not a fan of red and black ). I now have all the New York Dies :- )
Enjoy your break.

Hugs to everyone,

Angela in S. Wales Xx

I really like this card, Sue. I am rubbish at stamping, don't know why but just cannot master it. So I doubt I shall be trying this any time soon! Lol.

Condolences to Sheila, Nicki and family. My thoughts are with you at this sad time.

Steph, hope all goes well for you in hospital and you make loads of flowers!

Pat, hope you are recovering well after your op.
Hugs
