Today I have a fun fold card for you! I’m calling this one a Diagonal Gate Flip Fold Card. It may sound complicated, but I promise—it’s really easy to put together and so much fun to make! I first saw this fold at my team meeting with France Martin.
In the video, I’ll walk you through how to create this unique fold, assemble the card bases, and add a beautiful focal point with a ribbon closure.

Scoring Tip:
On both card bases, find the smaller panel. Measure 4" from the edge and mark it. Then score diagonally from that mark to the outer corner.
I’ll show you step-by-step in the video how to fold the card bases, adhere them together, and finish it off with a pretty ribbon closure.
