Trusty Tools Latch fold card with free project sheet & video

On last week's Live video I created two fun fold cards featuring the Trusty Tools bundle and the Trusty Toolbox designer paper. 

The Trusty Tools bundle is in the new Spring catalog and the Trusty Toolbox designer paper is in our Sale-a-Bration catalog. They're an incredible pair that is unique and perfect for handy guys or gals and coordinate together wonderfully! 

This card is a latch card.  Both flaps open but the Poppy Parade flap is 'caught' by the layered greeting element.

It's hard to explain how it works but the video I made shows how easy it is.  It's all about where to place the Dimensionals to 'catch or latch' the card closed.  I like my cards to stay mostly closed so I created this closure option. 

Here's what the inside looks like:

My colors were chosen by the Trusty Toolbox designer paper – Black, Poppy Parade & White. This special designer paper can be earned free now during Sale-a-Bration with any $50 purchase through Stampin' Up!.  See it here. 

I suggest ordering the Trusty Toolbox bundle and then choose the designer paper as your free Sale-a-Bration choice.  See the bundle here online.

A word of advice on choosing Sale-a-Bration items. If you want both a pack of designer paper and a stamp set and cannot afford to get both, choose the designer paper first. They usually run out of papers, dies & gems before they run out of stamp sets. Then choose the stamp set with your next purchase. 

You can download the free project sheet for the Trusty Toolbox card here. Download Trusty Tools Latch-fold card

Below is a photo of both cards using this special latch fold.  The card on the lower left is made with the Lighter Than Air designer paper in Lemon Lolly & Balmy Blue.  It's one of the cards featured in my Lighter Than Air pre-cut kit to go seen here.

  • Kindest Gnomes ‘Fancy Feet’ card; so cool!

    We made this FUN Gnomes card at my December card clubs.  I also shared it on my Tuesday FB Live here.  

    Kindest Gnomes Dec Save

    You might ask, why is it fun?  Well the gnomes feet wiggle.  I call them 'fancy feet'.  It features the Kindest Gnomes bundle.  Unfortunately the stamp set has sold out. The dies are carrying over into January because we are getting a NEW Gnome stamp set in the Spring catalog. It will coordinate with the current Gnomes dies. See the dies here. 

    Here's what the inside of the card looks like.  I used the Joyful Flurry stamp set.  I like that this stamp set has greetings for winter or New Years.

    Below is the back of the assembled gnome and shows how the swinging feet work.  The 'nose' is cut from a small rectangle of Blushing Bride and that oval is how you 'hang' the feet so they swing.  It's not adhered at all. This entire piece is adhered to the Designer Paper layer; it's adhered with just two Dimensionals.

    Isn't it fun!  I hope you watch the video to see how easy this is to make.  Even if you don't have the gnomes set I'm sure you could make something else 'swing' like a greeting or other critters. 

    This card is included in one of my December card kits to go featuring the Storybook Gnomes designer paper.  This kit has sold out now; but you can see others in my shop here.

    I don't think I shared these cards yet; they're made with the pretty Framed Florets bundle seen here.  It's part of the Fitting Florets collection.  The bundle will return in the Spring catalog in January.

    It is currently available along with the pretty Fitting Florets designer paper.  This paper is available while supplies last or through January 4th. 

    For the card below I stamped the floral and leaf images in Black Memento ink and colored them in with Blends markers.  The colors are Fresh Freesia with Granny Apple Green.

    The sentiment on the Black oval is heat embossed with White embossing powder.  I love the striking look of white on black!

    The next card uses the same sentiment and more of the Framed Florets dies including the pretty leaves.

    I featured the Joyful Flurry bundle on last week's Facebook Live seen here on my FB page. I really love this bundle but unfortunately the dies have sold out!

    Here's one of the cards I created:

    The Joyful Flurry bundle is on the retiring list. The stamp set is quite versatile and includes wintery greetings including a new years wish!  See it here.

    Unfortunately the Frosted Flurry dies are out of stock now; they sold out last week.  

    I changed up the background on this card from my original.  One is lightly sponged with Fresh Freesia and the other has both Fresh Freesia and Orchid Oasis.
