Fun Latch Fold card with Music From the Heart


I had to use my friend Dawn Olchefske's new stamp set for January club. It's the set she designed for her million dollars in sales achievement!  It's a fabulous music themed set called Music From the Heart.  Look!

Look at this fun latch fold card!

 

The Classic Label punch is perfect to create the 'latch' for this card closure.  We did have to widen the opening a bit by punching off to the side an extra 1/4" on each side as I wanted a larger front layer than the punch allows for.  If you watch the video below you'll see what I am referring to.  

I decided to offer a choice of card themes for my gals; Valentines, Anniversary and Birthday.  I used the Heart to Heart set for the Valentine's greeting. This pretty foiled paper is called From the Heart specialty designer paper.  You can see it here. 

Did you know that you can 'play or stamp' Happy Birthday with the individual notes in this set?  Isn't that the best idea ever?! Although creating a 'guitar' from two stamps in this set is even more clever! If you have a musical person in your life you need this set! 

Be sure to watch my video to see how to make this fun fold card.  It's amazingly easy! 

Measurements:

  • Real Red 4 1/4" X 8 3/4" scored at 5 1/2"
    White inside 4" X 5 1/4", front and inside flaps 2" X 3 3/4"
    Black 2 1/4" X 8" scored at 4"
    From My Heart Specialty DSP 3" X 4"

  • A gorgeous Handcrafted Ornaments card with video & free project sheet!


       Look at this beautiful card made with the Handcrafted Elements dies!

    These dies are seen in our 2023 Holiday catalog or online here.  There are two dies in the set that create that pretty, layered ornament.  

    I chose to use Starry Sky & Orchid Oasis along with the Brushed Gold cards. For the stamped bough image under the banner, I used Wild Wheat ink, stamped off once.  It's surprisingly close to gold! 

    This card is one we made at my October Card Clubs; they could choose their favorite greeting and also the color of bow on the ornament.  

    I used the Distressed Tile 3d embossing folder seen here.

    Yesterday I shared a pretty card featuring two of the same products seen in this card. Click here to see it. The Christmas Classics stamp set and the Brushed Gold cards & envelopes. 

    Look at the stunning golden shine on this card! 

    I shared a second card made with the other half of the Brushed Gold card base in the video here.  I hope you watch it! I will share the details on that card tomorrow.

  • Christmas Classic with the pretty Brushed Gold cards & envelopes; with video & free project sheet


    I shared how to make this pretty card on last week's Live video:

    It features two of my favorite products from the 2023 Holiday catalog; the Christmas Classics bundle and the beautiful Brushed Gold cards & envelopes. 

    I cut the card base in half so I could get two card fronts from it. I paired the gold accents with Shaded Spruce and the beautiful, detailed die-cut from the Christmas Classics dies.  See the bundle here.  I think it's absolutely gorgeous.  It's rare that I like the dies as well as the stamps!
