punches - modern label, word window
Fall Zipper Card, inside "zipper"
Winter Zipper Card, full front and open
SUPPLIES:
sets - endless wishes
cs - whisper white, lost lagoon, basic gray, moonlight dsp
ink - basic gray pad and black marker, white craft pad

Winter Zipper Card, front (it's white embossed snowflakes on lost lagoon cs, not green ~ it just looks that way in the photo)
These are the zipper pull cards we made in Club this month! I first made a zipper card at my Vacaville Shoe Box Swap.  She got the idea from Frenchie Martin.  You need the rotary arm and perforator blade.  Also I used the small scallop blade to cut the strip of dsp that goes over the "zipper" (perforated portion).  

After you sign the card and are ready to mail it, you seal it.  Then the recipient "unzips" it open by pulling the tab.

Happy Stamping!   Mary
