Flip-It Card

After a week in our caravan in sunny Devon, we've been home since Monday and I've just realised that I haven't blogged since last weekend.   I've had a lot of cards to make this week,  but there has been no time to add them to my blog.  On the plus side, I had a hair appointment on Tuesday..... and I'm having my second vaccination next week! It's the little things at the moment that seem so important.  Back to my card, which I made recently for a card swap. 

I used  Sizzix 'Triple Circle Flip-its' dies for the card base, scalloped border and circles.  The flowers were made with Sue Wilson's 'Petite Forget Me Nots' dies, with tiny white pearls in the middle.  I added a strip of ribbon down the side, the colours matching perfectly with the colours in the patterned paper.

 
The card swings open to stand up.

On the back of the circles I added the sentiment.

I am joining in the following challenges:

    The the three prettily docorated circles on the flip it mechanism Liz and the background paper goes beautifully with the sweet little forget-me-not flowers, and love the added words on the back of each circle. A fantastic card. x

    What a lovely design Liz. Love the very feminine look to the card and great idea to add the sentiment on the reverse of the circles.

    I totally agree about those little things Liz, I have my second at 8am, not fussed about hair (waist length so not much needed) would like to get back to having regular nail appointment but totally booked so I ordered some new varnish from Amazon....little things.

    Love the pretty colour palette here and the design is very effective. Many thanks for sharing and joining us at Allsorts challenge.

    Super card Liz, such pretty floral paper. I’m so pleased you’ve been able to get away in your caravan at last. i had my second jab a couple of weeks ago and hair cut yesterday. It feels good that we are slowly returning to normal.
