Happy Wednesday,
I really feel that this card shows exactly the versatility I wanted to get from the Bee Balm collection. Ive used the Ovals and the Background here to make this gatefold card.
I stared by cutting 2 extended backgrounds, one in Violet linen card and one in white and backed them with the alternate colour. I cut these down the centre and mounted them onto the front of a piece of A4 card folded, using the Groovy score board which has channels for this, into a gate fold card.
I then cut the Large semi circle using the detail and outline die backing them with white. I added these on each side of the gatefold to give 2 handles to open the card.
I added a piece made with the butterfly media plate in the centre.
Enjoy...

Unusual card I love the (handles) I love the idea of alternating the layers in one colour tone - does that make sense! But I think you’ll know what I mean
