Hi Everyone! I’m excited to bring you a new card that will be added to the shop this week! It’s called a Window Flip Card and I made the new Window Flip Card Birthday Cat (SVG, Silhouette – coming this week). Take a peek… Here is the front of the card…
And when you open the card, ta-da! you get a cute little flip up!
These cards are pretty easy to assembly, I’ve put together a quick tutorial below…
In the upper left photo, you will see all the pieces of the card. I pre-assembled the kitty and present, print and cut the sentiment and added the front cover panel and the inside panel. If you ever need help with specific piece placement, you can always reload the file into your cutting software, Lori groups the pieces as they go in the final project.
Start with the piece with the 3 score lines. Fold all the score lines in the same direction. Cover one end section in adhesive. Fold the whole piece in half… adhesive on the outside. Attach this piece to the bottom half of the open card base. It should be centered, and the piece with the adhesive should be facing down and closest to the fold in the card (see bottom left photo). Once this is in place, add one strip of adhesive on the section closest to the card fold as shown bottom right photo.
Fold the card closed and press so that the top of the card is firmly attached to the folded section. Now, when you open the card, you will have a squared tube inside the card. Next, fold the small tab along the score line. Cover the smaller side of the tab with adhesive (bottom left). Adhere this small piece to the top of the squared tube, centering it. You want the remaining tab to be sticking up furthest away from the fold. (bottom right)
Now when you close the card, fold the tab up and add adhesive (top right) With the card still closed, add the circle with the cat, making sure it is centered and press down to adhere it to the tab. Now when you open the card, the kitty circle will pop into the card. I then added the sentiment strip so that it would prop up the kitty circle when the card is open. I used foam tape to give it a little height. Lastly close the card and add the stars. Make sure there is no adhesive on the edges that overlap the circle.
There are lots MORE window flip cards coming to the shop later today/tomorrow, so be sure to check them all out! That’s it for me today, thanks for stopping by!
Hello friends, Marcia here today. I have a fun interactive double slider card tutorial for you today. These are super fun to make as well as receive. There are lots of double slider card designs in the store. I made the Birthday Dog card (SVG, Silhouette) which I thought would appeal to the one year old who received it.
When the “PULL” tab is pulled, the dog’s birthday hat lifts off his head revealing the Happy Birthday sentiment. So cute!
Let me show you how to make one yourself.
1. Choose your cardstock or pattern papers and cut out all the pieces. I used the Silhouette print and cut feature to print “Happy Birthday” and “PULL” before cutting out these pieces. Assemble the dog, backing the eyes and nose with the black circle, then add the white head and body over the top of the base dog. Top with the dog ears and front paws. Finally add the collar and the heart tag.
2. Cut 2 of the Pull tabs. Only one needs to have the printed PULL on it. These will be glued together to make the tab stronger. I also printed two white inserts to allow me to sign the inside of the card since the pattern paper is quite busy. Adhere one of the white inserts to the right inside portion of the card.
3. You will need to cut a strip of plastic packaging and insert it into the two slits as shown on the inside front of the card.
4. Use a piece of double sided tape to adhere the two ends together. The pull tab is attached to the other side of the double sided tape. Make sure the PULL text faces the front of the card. The plastic strip should be loose enough to slide easily. Test the mechanism.
The front of the card now has a sliding plastic strip between the two slits.
5. To keep the pull tab from wobbling, add foam tape strips on both sides. Mount the white insert to hide the sliding mechanism using more foam tape.
6. Attach the Happy Birthday sentiment to a strip of stiff clear plastic. With the pull tab pulled all the way out, use double sided tape to attach the hat with the sentiment to the top of the sliding strip. Mount the dog over the top using foam tape. Test the mechanism again to make sure it doesn’t catch on anything.
7. Add the cut out stars to the front of the card.
If you get stuck along the way, there is also a YouTube tutorial here.
