A Happy Birthday Flip Card

Hi everyone,

Today's card features a flip design.  So, when you pull the left and right sides when opening the card, it flips and you see the center rotate to the back side.  I made this birthday card for my brother in law.


Items used:
  • Sizzix die (they have several choices of centers including round, rectangle, fancy like mine is, and a couple of others I think)
  • Sizzix framelits die set that matches the flip design in the center (I used these thin dies to cut additional pieces that I then layered onto my card label).
  • Sizzix/Tim Holtz Frameworks die
  • Graphic 45 Steampunk Collection (base card was made from one of these sheets)
  • Gold Glossy card, purple card
  • Teal Suede Paper from Hot Off the Press
  • Acetate with a white lace design
  • Spectrum Noir Alcohol Pens (to color the candles)
  • Clear acrylic jewels
  • Dazzles by Hot Off the Press
  • lace for a bow
Here are close ups of the center label (front and then back) showing the layering I did.



I had purchased some brown lace from Really Reasonable Ribbon and used one for the double bow.

I added some designs on the right side because I thought it was too plain.  I was going to add gears because this was supposed to be a steampunk theme (my bro-in law loves tools and does beautiful wood work)

Thanks for stopping by!
