The font on this Merry Christmas stamp sold me on it. Just a little bit of the fun, curviness I love.

This Merry Christmas stamp is a true classic with a bit of that Victorian feel to it. I don’t often keep retired stamps but I will keep this one! It’s on sale now too; while supplies last. Click here to see it.

I paired it with the Traditions of Christmas designer paper here. It’s discounted and on the Last Chance list here. However it’s currently out of stock but should be back next week.
A bit of holly and berries with some ribbon and you’re done! As you can see I added the same DSP to my envelope flap. Now that makes a card extra special!

This next one features the Need for Tweed designer series paper. See that here. Fun prints with lots of texture. It’s also on sale right now and available while supplies last.

I stamped the inside with greetings from the Traditional Labels stamp set.

Aren’t they a beautiful set of cards! I will be making more of these and it’s a bonus that it uses up a nice piece of designer paper. No hoarding it!

Here’s the free project sheet for you. Click here to download or print it.

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

October 12, 2021

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

Save

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)

Save

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.

Save

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

Save

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.

Save

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