14.85cm Fold N Lock Invitation Card - Stardream Metallic Crystal
- The 14.85cm Fold N Lock Invitation Card is a unique but popular card for creating beautiful wedding invitations with a difference.
- The short flap is folded & glued in the middle only - allowing the edge to be lifted slightly. The larger flap folds over and extends approx. 2mm past the small flap - a slight bend and it will fit underneath the edge of the short flap - locking it closed - hence it's name "Fold N Lock". Another slight bend or lift and the card easily opens again. The front flaps are easily decorated with decorative handmade papers for a truly stunning appearance.
- This This 14.85cm Fold N Lock Invitation Card is made from our premium metallic white (or off-white) paper from Italy (shade almost identical to Crystal Perle™ Metallic Diamond White or Curious Metallics Ice Silver) - double sided colour.
- For those trying to colour match, some Australian wholesalers have rebranded this product and called it Metallic Bright White.
- This DIY Invitation Card arrives flat packed & unfolded making them easier to print. When folded they measure 14.85cm x 14.85cm square.
- Tip : When working with scored cards, the bump on the score (or fold line) is always the inside. When ready to fold, place on clean flat surface with bumps facing up and gently fold the card over and align the edges. Whilst holding the edges together, gently flatten out the fold. For best results, make the fold sharp by rubbing gently with the back of a clean spoon.
- We use & recommend Helmar 450 Quick Dry Glue or Helmar Premium Craft Glue for for gluing any inserts or decorative papers to the front panels. (sold separately)
- The invitation text is most often printed on a sheet of paper or translucent paper that is a little smaller than A6 or 1/4 of an A4 Sheet. With text for 4 invitations from one A4 sheet, this becomes a very affordable invitation. affordable invitation. Often a decorative paper (again just under A6 size) is placed under the text layers. These layers are only normally only glued on their left hand edges and when and when the small flap is folded over, all glues are hidden to leave a professional finish. Even better, the small fold over panel is easily decorated and any ribbons or decorative papers used can just be tucked under the reverse of the small flap and when folded and glued down, all the cut ends are conveniently hidden!
