Potted Geraniums Awash in Beauty Vertical Flip Front Birthday Card. Fun Fold Friday

 Good Morning Everyone

Happy Friday!! It's Fun Fold Friday and I've created a Vertical Flip Front Card. I've made this fold lots of times in the past in a landscape layout, but thought it would be fun to try a vertical one, and it gave me the opportunity to share this beautiful print from Awash in Beauty DSP.

fussy cut flowers

-------------------------------------

Take the larger piece of DSP and adhere that to one side of the 4 1/8" x 5 7/8" piece of Merry Merlot card stock. 

Glue down a fussy cut flower arrangement along the bottom of the larger piece of Basic White and add this to the back of that Merry Merlot piece.

Fold the remaining piece of Merry Merlot card stock along to score line and burnish well, creating a mini Tent Fold. 

Have the fold at the top, then adhere the remaining piece of DSP to the front. Pop another fussy cut flower arrangement along the bottom of the remaining Basic white, trimming off any overhang and stamp the sentiment in Merry Merlot ink. Adhere this to the inside of the mini card.

Place the 4" x 5 7/8" of Merry Merlot in front of you with the DSP facing up, then you need to adhere the 'mini card' to the centre of this. Have the fold line flush with the top and try to get the sides as even as you can.

Bring in your Mini Cut & Emboss Machine and cut out three of the labels using the Geraniums Dies. One in Basic White and two in Merry Merlot.

Stamp the centre in Merry Merlot ink into the centre of the Basic White label, the adhere the two Merry Merlot pieces behind, offsetting them to create a nice border. Due to the design of the label you won't get it even all the way round, but try to replicate how each opposite looks, that will help it look as even as it can be.

Pop some dimensionals onto the back of this label and add it the to top centre of the 'flip front' section.
