4th of July Flip-Flop Card

 Hello crafty friends! 

This week I have a fun and festive Flip Flop card for you that was inspired by TGIF Challenges #425 - Technique Challenge.

425

I tried and tried and tried to create some die or punch art to create flip flops for this challenge but it just wasn't turning out the way I had hoped.

So, I had to switch gears and create a fun and festive Birthday card for my sweet friend's 4th of July Birthday!

Cardmaking Tips:

  • The flip-flop mechanism for the card front was CASED from Beth Rush.
  •  For this card, you'll need the following dimensions of cardstock:
    • Poppy Parade (Card-Base): 4-1/4" x 11" ; scored at 5-1/2"
    • Basic White cardstock (mat): 4" x 5-1/4"
    • Azure Afternoon cardstock (mat): 3-7/8" x 5-1/8"
    • Bright and Beautiful DSP mounted onto a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock (both are same size): 3-1/2" x 4-3/4"
    • Holographic specialty DSP mounted onto a piece of Poppy Parade cardstock (front square): 2-7/8" x 2-7/8"
    • Poppy Parade cardstock (front-inside mat): 2-1/4" square
    • Basic White cardstock (front-inside): 2-1/8" square
    • Basic White cardstock (inside): 4" x 5-1/4"

The inside of the card was quite simple, to match the card front


Cardmaking Supplies:

All supplies listed are from the current 2023-2024 Annual Catalog, except for the decorative edge punch used to create the mechanism. 



Thanks so much for joining me today! Until next time...
