The final card in the Florals in Bloom series of cards is an accordion gate fold card. This card is not for those who like perfect alignment when the card is closed. The card is so beautiful when open, I forgive the fact that the edges on the left side of the accordion fold don’t line up when the card is closed. This is a great display card and is actually very easy to cut out and make. Check out the free Instruction sheet below for all the measurements and materials.

If you haven’t checked out the July online exclusives, you might want to give them a look see. I have created a bonus card class using the new Painterly Pears Set. If you purchase the card kit which contains materials to make 6 cards, you will be emailed a copy of the step by step tutorial with pictures and measurements. If you don’t want the kit but you want the tutorial, just place any order via my Stampin’ Up Store and email me that you want your free copy of the Painterly Pear tutorial. See the details below.

Product List

Accordion Gatefold Card Instructions

Painterly Pears Bonus Class (self-led)

Date & Time: Anytime after you receive your kit
Class Fee: $18 plus S&H if shipping is necessary (calculated when ready to ship)
Available Kits: 16

This is not a zoom card class. If you purchase this card kit you will be emailed a tutorial that will give you step by step instructions for assembling your card kits. As with any of my card kits, stamped images are not included. You will need to have your own stamps, ink, Stampin’ Dimensionals and glue to finish these card kits. All the paper will be pre-scored, cut and die cut for you. Each card kit is self contained in its own envelope for easy assembly. The adhesive backed dots will be in a separate bag.

Kit includes 6 cards total: 2 Hello cards, 1 Darling Duckling & 1 Misty Moonlight Staggered front card, and 2 of the cards with the beautiful pear border pictured on the bottom (3 are shown in the picture to show all the designs, but you will only receive 2 out of the 3 pictured from the bottom row).

Below is a close up of the  staggered front card slightly opened so that you can see that the inside of the card is partly exposed.

Final Call for the August Card Class: Gallery Blooms

Date: Saturday, August 9, 2025
Time: 6 pm
Class Fee: $36 plus S&H if shipping is necessary (calculated when ready to ship)
RSVP by: 7/19

Class Description: We will be making 3 each of the four designs pictured above. Each card will use a different piece of Designer Series Paper from the Gallery Blooms DSP pack. So all 12 of your cards will look different. Below you will see all 12 cards. The fold out display card in the top middle of the picture will fit in the standard A2 envelope provided, but it does not meet the correct thickness standards for a first class postage stamp (ie: It will cost more to mail and will be safer in a padded envelope or enclosed with a gift package.) All the other cards should meet normal first class postage standards, even though the Arched card might be close and it might depend on how picky your post office worker is when checking it.

NOTE About Card Kits for Classes: Everything for your card kit is pre cut and ready to assemble unless otherwise indicated. Card kits never include stamped images, glue, or Stampin’ Dimensionals. It does include cardstock, die cuts, Designer Series Paper, ribbon, or other embellishments that are pictured in the class advertisement.  Instructions for card kits can be found on my blog so if you miss class, you will still be able to assemble your cards.
