BLOG HOP & VIDEO: Hummingbird Corner Flip Fold Cards [Series #1]

INTRODUCING THE CORNER FLIP FOLD SERIES

Today is my Stamp It Demonstrator’s Group Blog Hop . We’re all really excited to unveil our projects, and announce a new contest giveaway. To continue on your journey through our projects, simply use the BLOG HOPPERS links belong.

Welcome to my latest creative adventure – the Corner Flip Fold Card series! This new series is all about bringing a delightful surprise to your card-making projects. Each card features an exciting, interactive element that really makes opening them a magical experience. I’m thrilled to share these designs with you and guide you through making your own!

About the Series
The Corner Flip Fold card is more than just a card; it’s an experience. With an innovative fold that I’ve simplified using a handy template, these cards include a pop-up surprise that brings joy to anyone who opens them. In today’s tutorial, I’ll walk you through the steps to create this fold, ensuring you’ll master it in no time. You’ll be “flipping” out over how simple yet effective this technique is!

Design Inspiration
For the debut of this series, I’ve chosen to use the Thoughtful Expressions Stamp Set from Stampin’ Up. The set’s charming hummingbird and vibrant floral designs are perfect for showcasing your coloring skills. Plus, the heartfelt sentiments included are versatile for many occasions. Today’s design uses the gorgeous Flowering Zinnias Designer Series Paper, adding an elegant touch to the overall aesthetic.

Occasions and Customization
Originally crafted as a sympathy card, the flexibility of the greeting makes it suitable for various occasions. Whether it’s Mother’s Day, a birthday, or just because, you can tailor the card’s message to fit perfectly. The ability to customize is what makes handmade cards so special, and this series embraces that wholeheartedly.

Tutorial and Resources
Don’t worry if you’re wondering how to start. Alongside the blog post, I’ve prepared a video tutorial where I demonstrate the creation of the Corner Flip Fold card and share tips on using Stampin’ Blends Markers for beautiful, blended coloring effects. The video makes it easy to follow along at your own pace.

What’s Next?
This is just the beginning! There are more designs and tutorials in the Corner Flip Fold series coming soon. Each one will introduce new themes and techniques, ensuring there’s always something fresh to inspire your creativity.

I hope you are as excited as I am to dive into the world of Corner Flip Fold cards. These designs are not only fun to make but also a joy to give, offering a unique way to express your feelings and creativity. Stay tuned for more tutorials in this series, and happy crafting!

Happy crafting!
