Wondrous Wreath flip card tutorial


I've had a look online & can't find any other examples of Wondrous Wreath flip cards. ZOMG, have I just innovated???  I think I need to lie down.

Here's a quick tutorial which gives you the basics of how to use your Wondrous Wreath stamp set & Wonderful Wreath Framelits to make a flip card. I'll post a stepped up version later.

Please do email me if you're interested in purchasing anything and would like a free catalogue to browse through.



Summary

Cut a piece of card measuring 6 6/8" x 5". Score lines are 2 1/2" & 3 1/2". 

Decide which side of the card you want showing (in this case, the wood grain side) & place the Framelit face down on the reverse side, lining the tab up with the 2.5" score line. Partially cover with cutting plate & run it through the big shot from both sides.

Cut out your wreath & before removing it from the big shot mark the back where the tab was. Put wet glue on the back of the wreath & use the mark on the back to line it up with the top of the flip die cut. Folding the card flat to let the existing cuts act as a template helps with placement.

If you've not made one before you'll need to practice a couple of times. I promise though, once you get it right you'll feel smarter than Stephen Hawking!
