The Cuttlebug Spot - Open the gates

The theme we had this week from the cuttlebug spot was to have a gate fold on our card . I did start off with the plan of doing a normal gate fold , but then the mojo just kept running away , so have ended up with something a bit different to what I 1st had in mind. Just hope it will be ok for the challenge.
