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.

• Stunning framed Winter Sampler with Snowflake Splendor!!

  December 10, 2020

  ---

  Look at this incredible framed sampler my Team made!  

  Save

  My Flowerbug's Team tend to swap almost every month and in November we chose to do a Winter themed sampler featuring the colors in the Snowflake Splendor designer series paper.  There were more than I could fit in one frame (approximately 11" X 17") so I'll use the others for cards or scrapbooking. 

  I have to point out this super creative snowman Margo made using circle dies and snowflakes.  She clear embossed snowflakes on Vellum under the two circles!

  I am not going to go into detail on each of these elements except to brag on the talent they shared!  I LOVE swapping with my Flowerbugs!
