Angled Gate-Fold card with a latch closure; template & video tutorial


I shared these cards last night on my Monday night Stamp with Me Live.  They're called Angled Gate-Fold cards.

These first two cards feature the Painted Christmas designer paper, the Thinking, Thanks & Peace stamp set & Seasonal Label dies. The large greeting die-cut was cut smaller by cutting once and reinserting it to trim off a bit. (shared in the video) 

 

On this card I added dimensionals to only the very left side of the greeting so it could work as a 'latch'.  The right side flap slips between the left side and the die-cut greeting to keep the card closed flat.  *Watch the video below to see how it's done.

I created an easy template for both the card base and the additional designer paper layer.  

One important thing to note about the template below for the DSP layer is to be sure to check the direction & side you prefer before trimming off the angles.  You can use this template for both sides; just trim off the opposite edge. 

I'll share the other two cards I made on Thursday; they're totally different!

  • Under the Moon scenic card with free project sheet & video


    Today I'm sharing the second project I made on last week's video – both feature the beautiful Under the Moon stamp set. It's a scene builder which can be so fun to create with. 

    My colors include Night of Navy, Azure Afternoon, Peach Pie & Pool Party.  

    You might wonder what die the Navy shape is around the greeting.  It's from the Unbounded Love dies – it's a small greeting shape that I cut in half and added to each side. 

    The large white die is from the Deckled Rectangle dies. The greeting die and the fun Navy shaped die are both from the Unbounded Love bundle seen here.  It's one of my new favorites. 

    Here's the video of the inside of these two cards.  One birthday and one sympathy – these stamp sets are both so versatile! 

    Here's the free project sheet you can download &/or print: Download May '24 Under the Moon Club

    Below is the video for this card tutorial and the other shown above.  I hope you watch it to see how easy it is to create with this beautiful stamp set.

  • Under the Moon Dutch-door card with video & free project tutorial


    I shared how to make this pretty card on last week's video. It features the Under The Moon stamp set which is what I refer to as a 'scene builder' set – one of my favorites to play with.  It's super fun & easy to create with! 

    See the two toned clouds & moon?  I used sponge daubers and 'direct to ink' techniques for this. You can see how it's done in the video here or below. 

    Below is the view when the card is open.

    When making a Dutch door fold you have a few choices on adding the front half. You can make your 'door' an inch or so wider than 5 1/2" so you can add the score line. Or make it 11" wide and score it at 5 1/2".  Or the other option is to cut a full size card – 4 1/4" X 11", score it at 5 1/2" and cut off the section you do not want.  

    Here's the free project tutorial you can download & print: Download Under the Moon Dutch Door card

    My card stock colors include: Pretty in Pink, Night of Navy and White.  To these I also added these inks: Azure Afternoon (water & sky) & Peach Pie (moon) and Smoky Slate (clouds). 

    See the Under the Moon stamp set here.  I also used the Unbounded Love bundle for the greetings & dies seen here.  Remember that starting Wednesday all stamp & die bundles are an extra 10% off and will be 20% off through June.

    Below is the video for this card tutorial and another.  I hope you watch it to see how easy it is to create with this beautiful stamp set.
