This is a modified U shaped card made for the A-Z Swap I am participating in. I used Papertray Inc's Autumn Fence Line die and stamp set. Normally, the U card has a "bridge" at both top and bottom which makes it too wide for A2 envelopes. With this one, I only used one sorta bridge.and it isn't solid...I made two layered die fence sections and they were just the right length to allow the card to fold to A2 size. If you look closely at the photo you can "spot" the gate closure I made from linen thread where the two fence sections meet...this allows the fence to fold left section over right for mailing but when the "gate" is fastened, the card will stand alone. I tried the inking my dies before cutting to obtain more detail and found that the foam pads work better than the linen--at least for me. since this was the first time I used the Fence Line set, it took all of my morning to create this even though I had done the die cutting last week ( yes I cut before I stamped)....Hope my partner for the Swap enjoys her fall themed U card.
