Today I want to share how to make easy flip cards using your Sizzix dies! I have been making cards for a long time- I started doing it for several reasons:
- to save money
- usually waited till the last minute to buy them and needed to get. them .sent.
- it was a quick and easy way to make something that satisfied my creative soul
- served a purpose
- people knew it was handmade and appreciated the extra effort
With the coming of the internet though it became a lot easier to just wish someone Happy Birthday on Facebook. Sad to say, I had gotten out of the habit of making cards. Lately, I have gotten back into the groove, thanks to the urging of my Facebook Live viewers and also store owners and students along the Paper Trail. And it’s fun!
Of course, I always am looking for a way to incorporate my dies 🙂 I love to use products I already have in different ways than what it shows on the package. Don’t be afraid to think outside the box- take a good look at the dies on your shelf and see if you can use them in a new way- it’s really fun!
One of my favorite (and I think most versatile dies) is the Recipe Card & Label. In this project I will show you how to position your paper on your die to make a quick and easy flip card. This card is one that I made for my son and new DIL’s wedding 🙂
