Corner Latch Cards Video with Expressions in Ink

I absolutely LOVE this fun fold!  It makes such good use of both your card stock and designer paper.  There's a video at the bottom of this post so you can catch my tips and watch me make these. 

I chose to use the Expressions in Ink Specialty Designer Paper for these cards.  It's absolutely stunning and filled with alcohol ink backgrounds. This means you don't have to create them yourself!

This card is made with our new Polished Pink card stock along with a bit of Gold foil accents die-cut with the beautiful Artistic dies.

In this next photo you can see how it opens as well as the stamped images from the Artistically Inked stamp set & bundle seen here.

Below is the same card made with different papers from this DSP only the card base is Pale Papaya.  An entirely different look with the softer colors.  The flowers & leaves are from the same stamp set and die bundle.

  Jacki created this one using the Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer paper and the Beautiful Autumn stamp set. It's a latch card!

  Once you add the layers to the card front you'll use the Classic Label punch to create the window for the latch to catch into.  

  Measurements:

  • DSP 3 3/4" square on the front; 1 1/4" X 4" on the inside right edge

  Here's another card made by Paula featuring the Little Treat Box dies and the Wrapped in Christmas stamp set.

  She cut the treat box dies into separate pieces (Garden Green & Vanilla) for her card front.  It also opens up to reveal a gift card holder inside. Lots of texture with the Winter Snow embossing folder too!

• Feels Like Frost Fun Fold card

  October 9, 2020

  Check out this beautiful fun fold card made by Annette for our Team swap in September!  Our theme was fun fold cards featuring products in the 2020 Holiday catalog.  

  Save

  She featured the Feels Like Frost Specialty Designer Series Paper and the Life is Beautiful stamp set.  This design is perfect for designer paper with a scene or large pattern.  

  Save

  I like the tag with the pretty Metallic Mesh ribbon.  That ribbon is so soft and it's in 1 1/2" wide but can easily be cut in sections without fraying!  

  Save

  Measurements:

  • Navy card – 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 1 1/2" & 4 1/4", tag is 1 1/4" X 3 3/4" 
  • Designer paper from left to right – 5 1/4" X 2 3/4", 5 1/4" X 1 1/8" and lastly on the right is 5 1/4" X 2"

• Christmas Cards kit to go; all Fun-fold cards! Opt in by the 20th!

  October 8, 2020

  ---

  Yesterday I shared the Plaid Tidings cards kit and today I'm sharing my 2nd cards kit to go (I cannot seem to do just one; there's too many fabulous products!).

  I chose to feature the Heartwarming Hugs designer series paper seen below.  It includes a variety of tiny patterns of plaid, stripes, dots, and more in traditional Red's and Green's. I especially like the gingham and stripes.  Oh and the polka dots too!  

  Save

  Look at these cards!  Each one is a unique fun-fold card which is a delight for the recipient.  They're creative & fun but not too difficult for a non-stamper to figure out either.  They include latch folds, pocket, flip, easel cards & more!

  Save

  This pre-cut kit includes $20 in current Stampin' Up! product, all for just $28! Yes; you're getting the 10 cards for just a few dollars when you add in tax & shipping. 

  In your kit to go you'll receive:

  • 1/2 package of Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper (6" X 12")
  • 3/8" Red double stitched satin ribbon
  • Red Rhinestone jewels
  • the free pdf tutorial for all 10 cards (valued at $15)

  This pdf written tutorial is available separately at my Tutorial shop here.  It includes step by step directions, measurements, a supplies list and photos.  

  I used the Wrapped in Christmas stamp set on all 10 cards; it's a fabulous holiday set and coordinates with the Warm Wrap dies.  

  Save

  • You have three choices for this cards kit but there's just one left right now.  See two here. 

    • Cards kit & tutorial – $28 (plus $8 Priority Shipping)
    • PDF Tutorial only $15 

  I have two card kits available in October.  You can see the other option here.
