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!

  • My ‘5 at a time’ card templates are addicting!

    I'm so excite to share this fun & unique idea!  I created two templates that help you make 5 cards at a time.  It's addicting & you'll be looking at your stamps in a whole new way!  

    I shared this on last week's Facebook Live and it was a hit!  It's so fun to do.

    For these cards I used the Merry Snowflakes stamp set (seen here) & Pool Party, Bermuda Bay & Highland Heather inks. The card stock is White, Gorgeous Grape, Bermuda Bay & Coastal Cabana. If you follow me you know these are some of my favorite colors! They're perfect for snowflakes.

    Below are the templates.  Remember these are 8 1/2" X 11" to start with.  For these cards I stamped before I cut but you can certainly cut your pieces first if you'd like to.

    As you can see these templates have very little waste. 

    Before I stamped I scored on the 4 3/4" and 3 1/2" lines leaving the piece intact. You could also draw a light pencil mark so you know where to stamp. 

    And here is how the White card stock is stamped. (I forgot to take a photo before I cut and layered them.)

    Can you see that the images concentrate on two sides of each piece leaving one corner free & clear? Basically you're stamping down the middle and on each of the lines. This keeps the cards from being too busy.

    I added a few iridescent Wonderful snowflakes (seen here) to some of them; I cannot get enough of these!  They're such a great size & value – you get 24 for $6. 

    I hope you watch the video below to see the tips & tricks on using these templates.

    Below is the video so you can see how it's done.
