Here's another (oh shut up, you love them!!) Wondrous Wreath flip card video. It shows you how to cut the centre out of your card so that the stamped wreath fits it perfectly with no stray bits peeping out underneath.

Gorgeously glittery Wondrous Wreath flip card


Here's another flip card & video showcasing the Wondrous Wreath stamp set & Wonderful Wreath Framelits.

I drone one for about 20 minutes in this video. There's a shorter video available here if you just want to see how to create the flip element with the Framelits dies.






The stamps & Framelits are available to buy separately or together as a bundle, saving 15%.

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!

New 2014 seasonal catalogue



Stampin' Up's gorgeous new seasonal catalogue launched this week, thereby sorting your papercrafting needs for the coming festive season. Email me if you'd like a copy. 


Yes, yes. I KNOW we're not out of August yet. But if you don't act now, before you know it it's December & you're stood in Paperchase thinking "How did it come to this?". Mark my words. 



I'll post a video in the next few days showing how to make the flip card from the wreath stamp & Framelit.
