Anyhoo, today I have a fun Flip Top card to share with you and it features the adorable Free As a Bird Bundle. I am having so much fun with this bundle, I can't even begin to describe it. These sweet little birds are just too cute for words.
Okay, onto the card.
If you would like to recreate this card, you can find a list with links to all of the material used down below. I would love the opportunity to serve you as your personal demonstrator.
To create this card, start with a standard card base of 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" in Seaside Spray, score at 4 1/4" and 2 1/8". Go ahead and fold the card in half, then fold back the flap created by the 2 1/8" score line. Next, you will need the largest Stitched Nested Label die, and lining up the end "points" with the 2 1/8" score line, use washi tape to hold the die in place. Place the top cutting plate even with the score line so that it is only covering half of the die and run it through the die cutting machine. This will create a "half cut" Now go ahead and flip the flap back. You now have a Flip Top Fold! To complete the card, I added a panel of the Bird Ballad DSP cut 4" x 5 1/4" to the inside of the card and added a piece of Whisper White die cut with the Stitched Nested Label dies. I then stamped my image from the Free As A Bird stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto Whisper White cardstock. I colored the birds with the light Seaside Spray Blend, the branch in the light Crumb Cake, the leaves with the light Soft Seafoam and the flowers in the dark Petal Pink. I stamped the sentiment in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and die cut this piece with the second largest Stitched Nested Labels die and layered it onto the card front. I hope you enjoyed today's card as much as I did making it. I love using my Stampin' Blends and this card was no exception. Again, you can find all of the materials used for this card below and be sure to pop in and see us again.
