I love Mary's combo this week. When I saw them I thought nautical and this DSP pack. Turns out the stripes were perfect for a nautical card.
I love making interactive or fun fold cards because the recipients seem to be so happy to get them. For a flip-it, when you pull the left side of the card, the circle flips.
I remember making similar cards using scoring and partial die cutting. This card was super easy because the die did all the work. I did add an enhancement - using a partial die cutting technique, I gave it the hidden panel.
I hope you've enjoyed my card this week and will find time to join us in the challenge!

I love this nautical themed card Jeanne- and the fun fold design makes it extra special- I chose these colors based on the playing with patterns dsp- but I wasn't thinking nautical but they so work for a nautical card- awesome work

Love your card Jeanne! Your fun fold works wonderfully with your theme! Love the scoring along the edge and your partial die cut! I've not tried this fun fold with the partial die cut, did you come up with that idea? Super cute card, it doesn't look easy!

You know, I also had some nautical thoughts when I saw these colors. Ended up with flowers (not my usual) instead. Great tailored look with the stripes and the sweet sailboat on the wave.
