Fantastic Flipcards - 6

 Welcome to Glenda's Cards!

Today I am sharing the sixth flipcard in my series of making the Fantastic Flipcards. Do you notice the pretty paper? When I saw the pretty double-sided Anna Griffin cardstock available on Cricut, I just had to purchase a few choices. This is the Rose Medley paper pack. Love it! Card measures 5" x 7".

Cricut Cartridge:
Anna's Fantastic Flipcards - Card is cut 11:03" wide x 6.943" high. This is the cut size without the included envelope. Roses cut 2.5" wide x 3.35" high. I cut two same size with one on flip. Single rose is cut 1.75" wide x 1.772" high, again cutting two with one on flip. I glued the flip rose to the back side of the original rose and then pop-dotted on card. When looking at roses inside of card, you will see the printed rose rather than the white paper of back side of rose.
Sentiments are written with the Cricut Midnight pen.
Butterfly is cut 1.50" wide x 1.33" high and again with image on flip.
Corner is cut 1.25" wide x 1.269" high. I cut two corners.
