Hi friends,
For DRS we are to make our own bg paper so today I have a flowering branch that I stamped all over and embossed in clear then sponged yellow and pink inks on it to show the pattern.
I made my swing card using an old tutorial by Norma Lee and some rounded corner square dies by Lifestyle Crafts (3 different sizes). It is really pretty easy once you see how to cut only to a certain point. You can also lengthen or shorted die cuts with the same method.
I chose this card to case.
Here is the link to the tutorial from Norma
Thanks for looking!

This makes an absolutely beautiful sympathy card - Love your colors and the white embossings - I made ONE flip fold cad probably 30 years ago - I may have to revisit that tutorial you've linked.

Gorgeous! The swing card design is fabulous. I haven't seen it done with rounded corners, which is terrific. Love the background paper you created. Beautiful colors! Love the images and sentiment. Very nicely done! TFS

Beautiful card of encouragement, Robin, done in an intricate format. Love how you did your embossing resist......and, of course, your flowers are beautifully colored.
