INSTRUCTIONS

• Cut card base 5-1/2 x 6-1/2" Score at 4-1/4" 
• Cut the latch fold piece to 3-1/2 x 3-1/4" Score at 2-3/4 on the 3-1/4" side
• Add glue to the small flap at the score line of this latch piece and tuck behind the large DSP panel (4 x 5-1/4" piece) on the right lower part of the card - about 1/4" from the bottom of the DSP panel
• Add small DSP piece to this panel with glue
• Add the DSP strip to the left side of the card base
• Stamp greeting onto the Nested Essential die cut in Early Espresso or desired ink color
• Decorate with die cut rectangle coffee mugs and glue to the layering die cut
• Add glue only to the left side of this die cut and adhere to the left flap in line with the latch panel on the right (I recommend Seal+ or multipurpose glue)
• Stamp sentiment on the Basic White panel for the inside of the card and glue behind the latch fold flap
• Now all of your pieces should be in place!
• Slide the latch fold BEHIND the rectangle die cut to close your fun fold!
• Finish with swirl dots
• OPTIONAL: Add two pieces of the trim on the right of the latch fold panel for extra texture and pop *use Stampin' Seal+ or strong adhesive*
