Cards from Technique Tuesday ...

 

On Tuesday I did a Facebook Live where I shared the Cut and Flip Technique.  

This is a simple technique that creates quick and easy yet gorgeous cards. 

Here is the link to the video:



And here are the three cards I created during the video: 



For this first card, I used Pretty In Pink DSP  with Pretty In Pink, Basic Black, and Basic White.  I love how this one POPS!  




Tip:  When choosing your DSP make sure that the patterns on both sides will be going in the correct direction BEFORE you cut.  

You can see from the above card that one side of the DSP was non-directional and the other was striped so it easily worked for the cut-and-flip technique. 


This next card was a bit different...I modified the sizes of the "DSP" because I chose to use Reindeer Days Memories and More cards in place of DSP. 



Tip:  Always think outside the box....think of alternate ways you can replicate what someone has done. 


This final card was made using the Season of Green and Gold 12x12 DSP and Gold Foil. This is SO BEAUTIFUL!



Now my challenge to you is to make a cut and flip card and share it with me.  Here are the sizes. 

Card Measurements: Card Base: 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" Scored at 4 1/4" Mat: 5 3/8" x 4 1/8" Designer Series Paper: 5 1/4" x 4" Cover Strip: 4" x 1/2" Basic White: for stamping and die-cutting or punching
