As an ex-Music teacher with lots of musical friends this card was a must-make for me. I printed the design on matte photo paper and cut out all the pieces. If, like me, you have to make the base gate-fold card it is quite simple. The main pieces are 5" tall so I cut a piece of brown card 5" x11" and scored 3" from one end. I folded this and stuck one door close to the fold, I then trimmed the excess. I opened the card and flat stuck the insert close to the same fold, I then scored on the opposite side of the insert to form the 2nd side of the door. I folded this section and flat stuck the remaining door piece close to the fold before trimming the excess.
In this way all pieces of the design fit perfectly and there is minimal wastage. I added the rectangular greetings to the insides of the doors and the bracketed greeting to the insert (see the 2nd picture for the fully open view of my card).
It sounds complicated but this card was a delight to make and looks wonderful!
