Looking for instructions on how to do trifold (gatefold) cards
 
Can someone please help....I have been ALL over scs resourses, tutorials, etc looking for the instructions on how to do the trifold (gatefold) card.

This is what I would like the card to look like when it is finished.

From what I can tell, it looks very similar to one that I have done. All you have to do is fold your cardstock as you would for a regular card and then fold one flap back to the fold line. Then it's just a matter of lining everything up!

Hope that helps. Doreen

I think both sides fold into the middle and then fold back. That is how I see it. I've experimented with 5 1/2 x 11" and 5 1/2 x 12" Not sure what I'm doing wrong. I don't think it will end up being exactly a 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 card. I guess I will just have to play around with it. The other tutorials I've seen for the gatefold card just fold to the middle. These have the extra folds back from the middle. Am I making any sense?

Maybe I'm not seeing these cards correctly. Maybe there isn't any card like I'm talking about?
