Stamp Club projects July 2015

Latch Card was a favorite this month!

To make the basic latch card: Start with a piece of card stock 7 1/2" x 5 1/2". This is your base. Score and fold at 3 1/4". 

With base FOLDED, return card stock to Simply Scored with folded edge at left side...

and score 3 more times:  at 3 3/8", 3 1/2" and 3 5/8".  (Do not fold on these score lines.).

These score lines allow the card to be opened, when gently folded back to "unlatch" it from behind your focal point.  In this example, that's the zebra from Zoo Babies stamp set..
Add DSP, card stock, other stamped images, embellishments etc per your choice.
With small adjustments you can alter the look of a Latch Card greatly. Use your imagination!
Here is another one I made for a wedding card:

We also made this little lovely using the Circle of Spring stamp set and the coordinating Wonderful Wreath framelits:

The Hardwood background stamp really looks great - looks like a door or fence!

Lastly, we made a Birthday card using the Birthday Yay stamp set and the coordinating Handpicked Framelits :

 Probably my favorite part about this is the fantastic papers from Cherry On Top Designer Series Paper Stack and of course some Sequin Trim (Bermuda Bay) to give it pizzazz!
