Instructions:
1) Cut a card base 8 ½” x 5 ½”, score at 4 ¼”
2) Mats for the outside of the card are 2 ¾” sq and 2 ½” sq
3) Mats for the inside of the card are 4” x 5 ¼” and 3 ¾” x 5”
4) Create a cutting template 3” sq as shown, this will be the cutting guide for the top right corner of your card base. You will cut from the 3” mark up to ⅝” from the top and right edges of the card.
5) Once this cut has been made you will gently push the inside point of the corner up toward the top right corner. The two uncut ⅝” sections will fold at an angle to make the “flip fold”.
6) Decorate the card as you like.
For the Moody Mauve design I simply stamped the hummingbird with Moody Mauve ink and blended it out a bit with the shimmer pen.
For the next two sets I simply water colored the humming birds with coordinating ink and then added some glitter pen.
I didn’t like the white inside mat showing so I just offset it to the left and added a second generation image to the mat.
