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.

• Expressions in Kindness kit is back! And the sale ends today!

  October 31, 2024

  ---

  The Expressions in Kindness card kit is gorgeous! Look at these stunning cards…..

  Save

  This beautiful kit has been out of stock for many weeks.  I'm so glad it's back in time for the kit promotion.  It was $23 and is now $20.70 but that price ends today!  See it here. 

  The kit is meant to make 8 cards but one set of the card bases is printed on both sides.  I couldn't waste it so I trimmed it to add to both White & Blackberry Bliss card bases.  I did have to add two greeting labels to get 12 finished cards but that's all I added besides extra envelopes.  

  Save

  Here are the other 2 sets of cards; I didn't change much.

  Save

  Our kits are all inclusive which means everything is included including a stamp set, Blackberry Bliss ink spot, envelopes, gems, ribbon and adhesives. 

  Even though I consider myself an experienced stamper I love our kits.  They give me a chance to create without a lot of prep or planning.  They're great for gifts or last minute crafting.
