Sliding Lock Favors & Cards

I shared a mix of holiday and sneak peek projects last night on my Facebook Live. Each of these projects uses a sliding lock closure that operates in a track created by the Classic Label Punch. I have the pictures and details to share with you today.

This post is meant as a supplement to last night’s Facebook Live. Please click here to see the video – and please join the Buckeye Inklings Stampers Group on Facebook to get notifications of all of my live videos. I have also added YouTube videos to the Buckeye Inklings channel – one for the favor, one for the card (links below).

These projects meet my favorite criteria…

  • They are fun folds
  • They use more than one pattern of designer paper
  • They are easy to modify to other themes by changing the papers and stamps

Though I am caught up in my preorder products (which do not include any Christmas items) I thought it would be nice to show the favor in holiday papers – it is still December! The products used here are part of the Heartwarming Hugs Suite.

The favor holds two Ghirardelli squares, and you can also add a gift card.

Dimensions are as follows…

  • Cardstock Base 7 1/2″ x 10 3/4″ – score at 1 3/4″, 2 1/8″, 5 3/8″ and 5 3/4″ on the short side, score at 4″, 4 3/8″, 8 3/8″ and 8 3/4″ on the long side
  • Designer Paper 3 3/4″ x 3″ and 1 3/4″ x 3″
  • Whisper White 3 3/4″ x 3″

Here are two of my “Sneak Peek” versions – using the Oval Occasions bundle from the upcoming Jan-Jun 2021 Mini Catalog along with Paper Blooms designer series paper from the upcoming Sale-a-bration Catalog.

Products from these upcoming catalogs will be available starting January 5. The paper shown here is one of the free items you will be able to choose with a $50 order.

My YouTube video for the favor (below) shows this version, made with the Punch Party stamp set and Flower & Field designer paper from the upcoming SAB catalog. If you are receiving this post in an email, please click here for the video.

My next examples use the Ice Cream Corner Suite from the upcoming Mini Catalog. On the right, you can see another version of the favor; on the left, the card version that uses the same locking mechanism.

Here’s a closer look at the card – everything about this suite is fabulous! You are going to love the paper, the stamps, the punch, and the embellishments!!

My YouTube video for the card (below) shows this version. If you are receiving this post in an email, please click here for the video. Keep scrolling for the Christmas version of the card and dimensions.

And finally, the Christmas version of the card. Dimensions are as follows…

  • Cardstock Base 5 1/2″ x 10 1/2″, scored at just under 4 1/4″ and at 8 1/2″
  • Designer Paper 4″ x 5 1/4″
  • Designer Paper 5 1/4″ tall, width between 3/4″ and 1 3/4″
  • Whisper White 4″ x 5 1/4″

Again, please refer to either the Facebook Live or the YouTube videos for complete instructions and tips. Any support (likes, shares, comments) that you can give me in social media is greatly appreciated!

I won’t include a product carousel today, as many of these items will not be available until January 5. However, please check the online store for sale items in the Year-End Closeout Sale.

Place a $35 order with Host Code EGS7SXBU in December, and I will send you a package of Stampin’ Dimensionals and a handmade card (orders over $50 will also receive a pack of Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals). This is my way of sharing the Stampin’ Rewards with you – I appreciate your business!!
