WHOA!!!  Check out my Triptych Gate Fold Card.  ( I just made that up🤣). I honestly don’t know what to call this card.  It’s got 3 panels, so Triptych and its base is a Gate Fold, so Triptych Gate Fold sounds good to me.

To create the base for this card, start with a 12″ x 5 1/2″ panel and score @ 2″, 4″, 8″, 10″.

Fold so the 2″ & 10″ scores folded out, and the 4″ & 8″ scores folded in.  This will give you the panels to attach your stamped images.  The finished card is 4″ x 5 1/2″, or just a smidge smaller than the standard card size.  Each of the 3 panels is 3 3/4″ x 5 1/4″.

The front of my card includes the image of Dad mowing the lawn from the A Cut Above Stamp Set. I colored the image with various Stampin’ Blends. I added the greeting from Handsomely Suited Stamp Set, stamped directly on a piece from the Beauty of the Earth DSP.

The middle panel features the cut tree from the Woodland Wonder Stamp Set.

[one-third-first]I placed some Post Its to cover the area of the card that I didn’t want to have the image, then stamped the image.[/one-third-first]
[one-third]Remove the Post Its. (oh – do you see my boo boo?  Guess I know where I’m adding a greeting or embellishment.)[/one-third]
[one-third]Now stamp the top & bottom parts of the image.  The clear photopolymer stamps make this super easy.[/one-third]

The middle panel has Dad enjoying a break in the hammock.  I used more of the Beauty of the Earth DSP to replicate grass and sky.

I hope you liked my project.  Please make sure you leave a comment with the hashtag #stampitcontest to win the Hello Dear Friend, and visit each of the bloggers on this hop!
