I saw a video by
Sam, Mixed Up Craft, she created a Cascading Gatefold Card and I liked it so much that I decided to make one - it is a lot easier than it looks and Sam explains it really well.
I used the Butterfly Kisses collection from Dovecraft, the same collection as Sam but a different paper, I also used some plain purple cardstock that I embossed with an old Crafter's Companion embossing folder. Both of the toppers are from the Butterfly Kisses collection and they are die cut decoupage, I also made a box envelope to put the card in using some of the papers. The Mum was cut using some Hunkydory Moonstone Alphabet dies, I added 3D Crystal Lacquer to make them stand out a bit more.

A gorgeous card Pauline, a very different take on the cascading card. I love the embossing folder you picked to go with the papers they match perfectly.

Love the pretty papers Pauline and a brilliant design. I have made cards like the centre piece but never had thought of mounting it onto a backing. Have a lovely weekend, hugs, Carol S.xxx
Beautiful and a card shape I have not come across before. I love the gorgeous papers used. Hugs Mrs A.
You sure this is easy? I always struggle with folds like this one, never quite know how to make the most of it, with my papers and stash. I think the patterned paper and embossed paper is a lovely combination. Well done!
That card fold looks amazing Pauline it looks so intricate the papers and embossed card just add to its beauty
