This past week a very special childhood friend of mine celebrated his 81st birthday and I wanted to make him a card he’d flip over – so I made this Magnificent Maple Extended Flip Card for him using our new Circle Card Thinlits Die and the Magnificent Maple single stamp from the Holiday Catalog.
I thought it would be fun to use the Circle Card Thinlits Die since it makes flip or swing cards so easy to make. And I couldn’t resist adding a bit of “bling” to make it extra special, since Dick has been like a second father to me over the years and always makes me smile. I love getting together with him and hearing his latest joke or funny story. I’m sorry to say it just doesn’t happen frequent enough now a days.
Because I wanted to have a little more room to sign this card I created this extended flip card. Want to know how I did it? I made a quick video to show you how – How to Make an Extended Flip Card.
And while I was at it I made a quick tutorial to show you how I created the extended flip card too. Hope you enjoy it!
