Here is your step-by-step photo instructions, with the basic pattern!
The Lattice cut technique is also known as "Cut and Tuc" or "Lacé"

1. Card can be stamped as desired prior to cutting lattice pattern. If you stamp all the way to the fold, you will probably also want to stamp in the middle of the inside of the card as well. However, to not put layers within 1 1/4" of fold.
2. Copy pattern below onto cardstock and cut out. (Make sure it is 5 1/2 inches long when printed).
Lattice Pattern:
3. Place the long, solid line of pattern against the fold of your card, paper clip in place (figure 1). Another option would be to use Hermafix Dotto ® to hold the pattern in place (then you don't have to worry about cutting the paper clips. It's in the catalog).
Figure 1. 
4. Cut along solid diagonal lines, be sure not to cut past the end of each line. Cut out the shaded diagonal area at the bottom. Save this "V" shaped piece. When you're done it will look something like figure 2.
Figure 2. 
5. Remove paper clips and pattern. Open up card, inside facing down. Fold the cut "V" shapes down, starting with the next to bottom one, then tuck the point behind the very bottom one. See Figure 3. Then keep folding and tucking every other one, going from bottom to top. Using a stylus tool or bone folder will help you get them folded evenly and crisply (make sure the fold of the "V" lines up the with fold of the card).
Figure 3. (with the first fold done). 
When done it should look like figure 4. Top

8. Glue the "V" shaped piece you set aside to the top edge of card, tucking it in like the rest, see Figure 5. (I would recommend using Mono Adhesive® - it's fast and you don't have to wait for it to dry).

(It looks better with the extra "V" added to the top, don't you think? I think it looks more symmetrical and has a "finished" look.)
9. Fold the card carefully, making sure the V's stay in place, see Figure 6. Last but not least, check out Figure 7 to see a completed stamped card using the stamp sets: Hand-Painted Petites and A Greeting for all Reasons. Other samples are at bottom of page.

Variations: Once you get comfortable with this technique, try varying it by putting the lattice in the center, making it into a scrapbook page or even by cutting the lines closer together to get a different look.

Below shows how you can shrink the pattern to fit 3x3 cards.

Change the pattern from straight lines to half circles... the sample shown here is an example of not putting the pattern on the fold. Make sure to use a swivel hobby blade like the Coluzzle blade when doing these circular cuts!

Or put the straight cuts in a circular pattern...

I used Lacé Template #3 for the above circular lattice card. For best results use a hobby blade that rotates (like Coluzzle). Metal templates for these can be purchased on line at http://www.imacrs.com/foldem-temps.htm. Their "FOLD-em template #3 - 3" x 3" is the closest to what I used above.
Have fun and thanks for visiting.
