Hi there and welcome to November's Totally Techniques Blog Hop. If you want to add a little movement to your card you'll love our technique this month. We are sharing Front Flip cards with you which can be simple or more detailed to suit your own style.
I've gone for a pretty simple version because when I started to create it my brain didn't want to go in the right direction. Have you had days like that?
I've used a fun set called Submarine Life and you'll possibly notice a new cheeky character inside the card who you will find in the new year in our Saleabration (SAB) brochure. SAB if you are new to Stampin' Up! shopping is a fabulous promotion that runs from 7 January next year until the end of February and you can get bonus freebies with your orders. Check back for more information coming.
Instructions
1. Cut a piece of card 14.8cm x 21cm
2. With the card in landscape position measure and draw in a feint pencil line 5.25cm from the left edge from top to bottom of the card.
3. Cut a circle that will form the outer edge of your image piece and score it across the midde. Position the circle so that the fold lines up top and bottom on the feint pencil line. The circle should be in the centre section of the card.
4. Use some washi or low tack tape to position the same die used for the circle ontop of your cut circle on the card. You now need to partial die cut half the circle by only passing the card partially through your die cutting maching.
5. Now use an eraser to remove the pencil line and then score above and below. Use the scratch circle to make sure your scoring is where the pencil line was. Also score the card on the long side for the width of the card at 10.5cm.
6. Fold the score lines above and below the circle to fold the outer edge back towards the centre fold of the card.
