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!

  • Curvy Christmas & the Postage Punch


    Check out this easy card using the new Curvy Christmas stamp set and the Postage Punch!  

    It's super simple! Here's how I made it:

    1. Stamp the curvy trees image on the White CS using Shaded Spruce ink.  Color the trees with a Light Shaded Spruce Blends marker.  Add a tiny star using Cherry Cobbler ink on one tree. Adhere it to the Cherry Cobbler layer and to the main card.
    2. Punch out three pieces of Classic Christmas designer paper with the Postage Punch seen here.  Adhere to the White CS. 
    3. Stamp the greeting in Cherry Cobbler ink on a 1/2" strip of White CS.  Punch the ends with the Banners Pick a Punch. Add it to the card with mini dimensionals. 
    4. Finish with a few Holiday rhinestones. 

    You can see this stamp set here; it's only available through January 4th.  And the Classic Christmas Designer Paper is here while supplies last. 

    Remember that everyone who orders any of these products or places an online order with me in November will receive a free 22 project PDF tutorial featuring the Curvy Celebration products!

  • Gift Wrapped Box Fold Card with video


    Check out this cute Christmas card we made at my October Card Clubs!  It's a box fold card; a super cute but easy fun fold. 

    The colors are Real Red with Granny Apple Green & White. The dies on the front are the Stitched Shapes and Hippos & Friends.

    It even folds flat for mailing!  As you can see the back is similar to the front; leaving some space to write or sign the card.  

    I used the Gift Wrapped punch bundle from the Holiday catalog.  You can see it here. 

    Check out the video and measurements below. 

    Here's the video: 

     

    Measurements:

    Real Red 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2", 7", 9" and 10 1/2"

  • Peaceful Nativity WOW card


    Look what happens when you combine a beautiful background with the Nativity Dies?!  

    Candace created this gorgeous card for our October Christmas cards swap with my Flowerbug's Team.  She is a master at sponging backgrounds.  I believe she used Pacific Point here.  She simply added a greeting (from For Unto Us set) embossed in Silver and the pretty scenic die-cuts in Black.  

    Click here to see the For Unto Us stamp set and here for the Peaceful Nativity bundle. 

    More Team swaps tomorrow!
