Easy Flip Flop Card by Jennifer Svare
Hello! Today I'm excited to share a unique flip-flop card idea. It's got a full front panel, and the front floral "flips" to reveal the sentiment when the card is pulled. The video below shows this card in action.
The Oval Fold Frame die makes this type of card very simple to make. Again, the video will show exact measurements and instructions, but it doesn't take long at all! I used the inner oval nesting die that comes with the Oval Fold Frame to create the base for the front. The flowers came from the beautiful Adriana Oval Frame for a white-on-white floral background texture.
I used the label from the Adriana Pop Easel Set to create a vase for this card. I die cut it out of watercolor paper, and then watercolored some grays to create a cement look. The Floral Cluster pieces were also cut and watercolored, along with Garden Leaves and Berries for the greenery. Distress Oxide inks were used to create a colorful background.
When the card is pulled, the floral vase "flips" to reveal the sentiment. For this card, I used a sentiment from the fun Birthday Blowout clear stamp set.
The back of the card has a little floral blossom that was left over, and I just love the patterned paper from Memory Box's Springtime Bouquet 6x6 paper pad. I hope you give this a try - it is a really fun card to make! Thank you for stopping by today!

Beautiful :)
Hi Jennifer, This is a lovely technique and your card colours and die-cuts are beautiful.
Lots of love from Patricia xx
Very pretty card!
What a nice card! I wonder if you have written instructions with measurements? It takes me a lot of time to absorb verbal instructions, which means stopping and going back to the beginning many times over which I will do if I have to.
I won the Adriana frame recently and want to try your method. Thanks for the instructions!
Hi Sandra! I am happy to write up some instructions for you; in fact, I realized there was an extra step in the video that didn't need to be there. ha! I will be in touch, so glad you are going to give it a try. :)
Hi and good day. I'm hoping you provide the measurements for using the Circle Fold Frame with this technique??
Many thanks,
Karen
