Trusty Tools Latch fold card with free project sheet & video

January 9, 2024

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.

Petal Park with Kind & Sincere and a masked background technique with video tutorial

January 4, 2023

This is the other card I shared on my Stamp with Me Live on Monday evening. You can see it here on my YouTube Channel now.

I used post-it notes and a Blending Brush to achieve this soft line of color and then stamped my flowers and dotted image around it. I love the effect!

I used a pretty color combination of Coastal Cabana with Night of Navy. What do you think of these together?

Save

I've created quite a few cards by combining these two stamp sets together. I'm not sure why; they seem to pair up so easily.

Save
I did stamp a set of flowers on a separate piece of White card stock and punched them out so I could curl the petals and pop them up. I like to add more dimension to my cards this way.

I also did the same with my smaller greeting, stamping it on a scrap of Coastal Cabana to add below the 'Thanks'.

Get 95 sheets of New Spring Catalog Designer Paper in my DSP paper share!

January 3, 2023

Many people like to see (& feel) the designer papers in person and it's so nice to have a sample of each one. This way you know if you want to order full packs or not. Plus it's great to have some of each so you can participate in challenges, swaps or just case/copy a cute sample you see online.

In my Spring Catalog designer paper share you'll receive 95 sheets of every single pack available! They're in 6 X 6" size and it's just $34 (plus shipping if needed).

Here's the link to opt in via my Shop.

Save

There are 14 different packs including 8 specialty papers like shimmer, vellum, pearl and foiled.

If you'd like to earn a Sale-a-Bration item with this order, adding on $32 in products will be enough for a free $50 choice or $72 for a $100 choice. *12" papers may need to be cut into 6 X 12" size to fit in the package.

Once each share is filled (I need 8 people) I will order the designer paper. Then it takes 7-10 days for it to arrive to me for cutting and packaging. So expect your paper share to take at least 2 weeks to arrive.

Here's the link to get the designer paper share. Remember this is limited and likely to last through January only.
