I have had many requests on how to make a lattice fold card. Here's a tutorial for you:

Stamp the front of your card with your background:

Flip your card over, and line the spine of the card up to the edge of your guide:

Trace your lines:

Cut your lines:
Open your card:
Fold down your cuts, starting with at the bottom:


Fold your card. You may want to use your score tool and really work in the crease:

Peace & Blessings!
