How to make a flip flop card more fancy

I love flip flop cards (also known as swing cards) and this type of card was the very first card I made for Crafter's Companion when I joined the DT team using a Die'Sire Words Edge'able Die.

So, a year on I made another one for them and this time I used one of the fancy Edge'ables and I think it gave this card the 'wow' factor.


Because the edges were so pretty it meant I could use the flip flop part for my sentiment which I kept basic and I just used a few flowers, pearls and gems to finish it off.

I am going to be posting the measurements for this card when I get a few moments and it will work with all of the edge'able dies. Been really busy working on new projects which I will get to show you all over the next couple of weeks.

Take care everyone and have a fab weekend x

  7. It's stunning Angela, I love the Downton paper you've used on the back ground, I have the CD and have used it to make a few cards. I don't have any of the accordion dies or Edge'ables dies yet, after seeing this I think I'll review that. Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to seeing your new projects soon :) Debs x
