Baby Girl Scallop Flip Out Card

This is a fun and interactive way to send the parents-to-be a congrats on their new addition. Simply untie, and flip out the two flaps. This card came to me in my sleep last night. So I had to get up and try to create what I saw all night long! :)

The card is 5 13/16" x 9.25". Score at 3.75" and 8.25". Fold both flaps in. From the Elegant Edges cartridge cut a scallop, using the shift key & book feature, at 5.75". (this will actually measure 5 13/16 in width to make sure all the scallops are even).

Cut 2 1/8" off from the flat side of the scallop. Adhere this to the top of the 1" flap.

With the card folder closed, stamp "congratulations" on the bottom right corner.


On the inside, using the 2 1/8" scrap left from the scallop, cut 2-1" strips, adhere to the top and bottom of the middle section. Stamp a sentiment in the middle.

Fold the card up. Add a 16" piece of ribbon, tying into a bow. Adhere the back of the ribbon on the backside of the card so that when its untied it won't fall off.

Simple, yet precious! Enjoy!
