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!

  • Framed & Festive for an easy Christmas card


    I shared this pretty card on last week's FB Live video.  I LOVE this pretty DSP.  

    For this card I colored the white berries on the DSP Red with a Blends marker.  You can change the color of these berries so easily! They could be pink for a birthday card or red for Christmas. 

    The greeting is from the Framed & Festive stamp set seen here; available through early January or while supplies last.

    I love this card layout because of it's simplicity.  It has a textured layer, a layered piece of designer paper, ribbon and a punched greeting.  Everything most of us want to add to our cards.  Here are the measurements, in the photo below. 

    The greeting punch is the Decorative Circle punch from the Annual Catalog. 

    This DSP is a limited time products; available through early January or while supplies last.  It's featured in this month's kit to go seen here. 

    You can see all of these new products here.

  • Framed Florets card in blues; an easy layout idea


    And the blog issues continue….. If you're looking at this from a phone or tablet you may not see any photos.  But as of yesterday they did show up on a computer.  I hope Typepad figures this out soon!  

    This is one of the cards I demonstrated on last week's FB Live video. Each one features the new Fitting Florets collection of products. 


    The card was inspired by the colors in the pretty floral designer paper. I chose Night of Navy, Balmy Blue & Soft Succulent with White.  The oval is from the Framed Florets dies; the flower & leaves are from the Framed Florets bundle. I colored them in with Blends markers.  

    The greeting images are so pretty; I love the mixed font.  

    In the video below, I shared three cards featuring the Framed Florets bundle and the Fitting Florets DSP seen here.  This DSP is a limited time products; available through early January or while supplies last.  It's featured in this month's kit to go seen here. 

    You can see all of these new products here.
