There are several videos on YouTube that show how to make a Flip Card.  I believe next time, I will cut the DSP the full width of the card base.

Perfect for any occasion

I cannot turn down a good bargain!  When I see card blanks with envelopes, I purchase them for just the envelopes alone.  I am a SUS (Stampin' Up! Snob) and love and use their products for 95% of my cards.  What I find difficult to do is throwing away the card blanks.  Today's card is brought to you by, Ms. Frugal Cardmaker.  The card base opened measures 8" x 5 1/2"  - not your typical card.

Three of the four cards in this set only had the Modern Label punch attached to the card.  I created seven more sentiments and punched them out with the Word Window punch and placed Dimensionals on the back.  This allows the recipient to choose their own sentiment and attach it to the card.

I made a coordinating box to complement this greeting card set.

A tutorial for this card box is available for a minimal charge of $2.99. I created the tutorial with step by step pictorial instructions. The tutorial is an Adobe file.

Upon payment, your tutorial will be sent to you by email within 48 hours. I usually check my account twice a day; however, if you do not receive the instructions, please send me an EMAIL. The email will be sent to the one you have with Paypal, unless otherwise noted.
