Hinged card
This card design was featured at SCS several weeks ago, and I finally finished a card based on their tutorial. I don't recall ever seeing this tilting card style before, although it was listed as an "everything that's old is new again" idea. The tilt is a fun surprise for the recipient.
The instructions on the tutorial are quite clear, so there's no need to repeat them here. The card features a die-cut reindeer from Whimsy and die-cut holly leaves from a Spellbinders set called Little Leaf Sets, and of course those are Nestability ovals. Those are red sequins posing as holly berries. The decorative border was made with a Recollections punch.
All the printed papers are papers are from a mat stack from Michael's, The Paper Studio line.

ReplyDeleteI have not seen this style of card before and think it is fabulous.
Your colours look great and the image seem to be to be just right as it really is a leaping deer.
