I had watched a video from Jennifer McGuire the other day and she was doing some cards that she called inside out. That is what I did today. It's really like a gate fold, although I think her samples were more like an overlapping tri- fold that had been cut away. So it's a horizontal gate fold and after I stamped the houses at an angle coming down from the fold to the center opening, I cut away the top part of the gates so that the inside of the card shows. Or at least the main focal element of the inside, which in this case is Santa and his reindeer- a die cut on top of the sponged clouds. It's pretty simple really, just stamping, fussy cutting and then I added the Snowtex to cover up a smudge between the rows of houses and then I realized it would qualify for the Mix challenge. I had something else in mind for this but maybe I'll do that later.
