Stampin' Up!- Sending Hearts January Paper Pumpkin Alternative

I made this fun fold card that has a center latch.
 
I made another center latch card with a butterfly on it.
The center latch piece just slides upward.
 Here is a photo of the card opened up.
Check out the latch part.
For the patterns I made to show you here- they are made out of Basic White card stock.
But for the actual center latch part on my card I made all 
4 squares out of  Basic Black card stock.

This is how you make the latch part.
It is 4 pieces of card stock that measure 3 1/2 x 3 1/2" each. 
Two of them you score at 1 3/4" & fold in half.
Those 2 folded pieces become the sandwich (center) of the latch.
You then put a front & a back piece on them.
This is how you fold the 2 that go in the center.
They fold are back to back.
This is a close up photo of the center latch.
All of the supplies for this card are from the  
Sending Hearts January Paper Pumpkin kit, 
except for the Basic Black card stock & the Memento ink pad.
 
card stock:
  • Basic Black- 4 1/4 x 11"- score at 2 3/4" from both ends & fold to make a center gate fold card base
  • Basic Black- 3 1/2 x 3 1/2"- for front side of latch piece
  • Basic Black- 3 1/2 x 3 1/2"- for back side of latch piece
  • Basic Black- 
designer paper:  This is actually one of the cards in the kit that I cut into 4 x 2 1/2" pieces (x2)
ink:  Memento
Check out all of the supplies that are in this 
Sending Hearts January Paper Pumpkin Kit.
It contains supplies to make 8 cards with matching envelopes.
Plus you'll have left over pieces to create whatever else you want to with them.
The Ink Spot is the color- Poppy Parade.
 I hope you have a SUPER Sunday!!
Happy Stamping!

Stampin' Up! Lots of Heart Bundle

Oh my gosh!
Have you noticed the awesome Many Hearts Dies on page 15 in the Spring Mini Catalog?
I LOVE them!
This Lots of Heart Bundle is just great!
Check it out- there are 15 different dies & 11 stamp images!
 I think this heart card is a great all occasion card.
Yes- it would work for Valentines, a wedding, thank you, birthday, get well, etc.
 
How did I cut the DSP?
 I took a piece of 6x6" DSP & cut it apart.
Here is a pattern I made so that you could see how I did it.
 #1.  Cut it at a diagonal like this.
#2.  HOLDING IT TOGETHER- ROTATE IT!
#3.  And then cut it again like this.
You now have 4 evenly shaped pieces to add to your card front.
 When you add the DSP to the card front it looks like this.
TIPS:  When you put on the DSP to your card front, line up the top left corner & the left edge.
 
Here are the supplies & the measurements that I used so that you can make this card too.
stamp set:  'Lots of Hearts'
card stock:
    *Thick Basic White-  5 1/2 x 8 1/2"- score at 4 1/4"- fold in half for card base
    *Rococco Rose- 4 x 5 1/4"
    *Rococco Rose- 2" strip- die cut dotted stitched heart
    *Basic White-3 3/4 x 5"- for outside of card- stamp words along the bottom right corner

    *Basic White- 2 3/4" strip- stamp heart & die cut
    *Basic White- 5 1/2' strip- die cut the outline hearts & use the solid center hearts for the card front, layering this into the center of the Rococco Rose hearts

Stampin' Up! A Touch of Ink fun fold!

WOW- check it out!
This is a fun fold card that I made earlier this month, for a swap that
I did with some of my demonstrator friends from different states. 
 
Just look at the awesome stitching around the butterfly.
I did that by using the NEW Stitched Whimsy Dies on page 72 in the Spring Mini Catalog.

The butterfly & words are from the 'A Touch of Ink' stamp set that is a
Sale-a-bration choice that you can get for FREE with a $100 product order.
 
And the polk-a-dot DSP is from the Flower & Field Designer Paper
that is also a Sale-a-bration choice that you can get for FREE with a $50 product order.
 
The card fold is a traditional center gate fold.
BUT the butterfly piece is made to slide on & off!
This is what it looks like when I'm sliding the center piece off.
This is kind of like a belly band, but it is easier & just really cool!
It is really just a "latch", to hold the card center together.
 This is what it looks like when the card is opened up! 
AND then-
Check out how I made the center latch part!

Here are photos of the pieces I made as 'patterns' for you to see how I made it. 

You will need-
  • 4 pieces of card stock that all measure 3 1/2 x 3 1/2".
  • 2 of those pieces will be scored down the center at 1 3/4" & then folded in half.
  • With the other 2 pieces- one will be the back & one will be the front. 
  • You will sandwich the center 2 folded pieces between the front piece & the back piece.
  • The folded edges of the 2 center pieces will butt up to each other in the center.
 I hope with this side view photo of the latch piece you can see how I assembled it.
Here is how you use all 4 pieces of card stock that measure 3 1/2 x 3 1/2" each.
  • Front- 1 black piece 
  • Center- 2 white pieces- that are folded in half & the folds meet in the center of the 'sandwich'. 
  • Back-- 1 black piece
BE SURE YOU stick it together securely with glue or seal plus, so that it doesn't pull apart.
I just love black & yellow butterflies- they are my favorite!

I added the Wink of Stella over the butterfly, 
although I don't think you can tell that by looking at the photos.
But in person it sure adds that extra sparkle!
 
Here are the supplies & measurements I used to make this card.
 
stamp set:  'A Touch of Ink'- FREE Sale-a-bration choice with a $100 product order
card stock:
  • Basic Black- 4 1/4 x 11"- score at 2 3/4" from both ends & fold to make a center gate fold card base
  • Basic Black- 3 1/2 x 3 1/2"- for front side of latch piece
  • Basic Black- 3 1/2 x 3 1/2"- for back side of latch piece
  • Bumblebee- 3 1/4 x 3 1/4"
  • Basic White- 3 x 3"
  • Basic White- 4 x 5 1/4"

The stripes & the cone are both from this DSP.

I used the Sweet Strawberry Bundle on page 44 in the Spring Mini Catalog.
And I combined the Berry Delightful DSP from the Sale-a-bration Mini Catalog with it!
 
This strawberry stamp is a disinktive stamp image.
Notice how it gives light & dark shading when stamped.
It was designed to do this & makes it so easy to do.
I just stamped the outline of the strawberry.
And then stamped the solid inside image inside of it.
I just LOVE the variation of shading I got by doing this so easily!
I used the Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder on my card front.
Then check out how I used the strips of the Berry Delightful DSP
& adhered them directly over the textured Poppy Parade card stock.
These 3 different DSP strips measure 1 x 4" each.
