For this card I started with black card stock in a 5.5 x 3.5 size. Then I cut my red striped paper the long way so that I could fold it over almost in half on that 5.5 x 3.5 black paper then I took another square of black paper and layered it with a piece of white paper just so the blackboard it and then I stamped my fire design in the center and I used my Tombow markers to color it in. When I put it all together I only glued about two thirds of the firemen emblem and the rest of it is used to lift the card open to the center
Very cool firemen emblem, Pam. I like how you overlapped the front. The red and black combination is striking. Thanks for playing along at AAA Cards.

Wonderful gate fold card, Pam, and I'm sure it's for a special fireman. ;) Thanks for sharing this with us at Addicted to Stamps and More this week.
