Some of my favorite Sale-a-Bration products from Stampin' Up! are the "Hippest Hippo" stamp set and coordinating "Hippo" dies. The images are so adorable! As you can tell from the sneak peek photo above, the dies include a handy tub. It makes quite a perfect place for my hippo to treat herself to a bubbly spa. The bubbles, of course, are Iridescent Rhinestones.
The above photo shows how this particular gatefold is designed. The 4" x 11" cardstock is scored at 2", 3-3/4", 7-1/4", and 9", folded, decorated, and then adhered to the 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" panel. I used another Sale-a-Bration product to decorate the side panels of the gatefold and the base cardstock . . . "Rings of Love" designer paper. The stamped, colored, and die-cut image was adhered behind the tub to a piece of "New Horizons" designer paper (retired), which seemed perfect for the hippo's relaxing outdoor spa. In the photo below, you can see that the decorative focal layer was only adhered to one side of the gatefold to allow the card to be fully opened.
The sentiment was printed from my computer and cut with circle punches.
Below is a better photo of the front of the card:
It's a fun little card, huh?
