Hi, Stamper. Welcome to another Creative Creases Challenge. In today’s challenge, I’m featuring the Otterly Adorable Designer Series Paper from Stampin’ Up! to create a stunning Birthday Gatefold Pop-Out Card. This fun fold birthday card is easy to make and perfect for using your favorite Stampin’ Up! crafting supplies. Keep reading for step-by-step instructions and links to shop the products I used!

My Gatefold Pop-Up Card features a Pool Party cardstock base, beautifully accented with the Otterly Adorable Designer Series Paper from Stampin’ Up! A coordinating belly band keeps the card securely closed, while the focal point—a circle punched from the Otterly Adorable DSP—is layered onto a Pretty Peacock cardstock circle for added dimension.

The inside of this Gatefold Pop-Up Card showcases more of the Otterly Adorable Designer Series Paper, adding a playful touch to the design. For a polished finish, two Basic White cardstock layers provide space to write a heartfelt message. The pop-up centerpiece features a sentiment stamped in Pretty Peacock ink on a Basic White circle, layered onto a coordinating Pretty Peacock cardstock circle for contrast. Watch the step-by-step tutorial video below to learn how to create your own Gatefold Pop-Up Card using Stampin’ Up! supplies—perfect for handmade card-making enthusiasts!

Make sure that you head over to the Creative Creases Challenge and submit a fun fold card of your own. We would love to see what you create!
