I had so much fun making the extended flip card a couple of days ago that I thought I’d show you another one!  This time I used the Color Me Christmas stamp and Very Merry Tags stamp sets from Stampin’ Up! to create my card.  My card design was inspired by The Paper Players #163, which is a challenge to create a clean and simple card for kids.  I think that my happy little Santa flip card fits that perfectly!

Here is a link back to Sandi MacIver’s video showing you how to use the Thinlits Dies to create a 4-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ card with an extended panel:  Click here to view the video.  She gives you step-by-step instructions and measurements so make sure that you check out her video so you can see how easy it is to make the extended flip card.

I started by adhering a 1-7/8″ x 4″ panel of Season of Style DSP to the left side of a Cherry Cobbler card base.  Then I ran it through my Big Shot with the Circle Card Thinlits Die, just as Sandi shows in her video.  Next, I stamped the Santa image from the Color Me Christmas stamp set in StazOn Jet Black ink on a Whisper White panel, colored it with my Stampin’ Write Markers, cut it out with a Circles Collection Framelits die and adhered it to the circle flip on my card base with SNAIL.  It’s hard to see in the pictures, but I added a little bit of Dazzling Details to the white parts on Santa’s hat and coat.

Then I embossed a panel of Cherry Cobbler card stock with the Northern Flurry Embossing Folder and I adhered it to the card front with SNAIL.  I cut three stars from Silver Glimmer Paper using the little star die in the Circle Card Thinlits Die set and I adhered them with SNAIL to the embossed panel.  Next, I stamped the sentiment from the Very Merry Tags stamp set in Cherry Cobbler ink on a Whisper White panel, punched it out with the Petite Curly Label Punch and adhered it with a Stampin’ Dimensional to a 1″ Square Punch (I rounded the square corners with the 3/16″ Corner Punch).  I finished the card front by adhering the layered sentiment to the card front with SNAIL.

To complete the inside of the card, I stamped the Merry Little Christmas sentiment in Cherry Cobbler ink on a Whisper White panel, cut it out with a Circles Collection Framelits die and adhered it to the back side of the flipped circle with SNAIL.  Then I stamped the image of the gift from the Color Me Christmas stamp set on a 3-1/4″ x 4″ panel of Whisper White card stock in StazOn Jet Black ink, colored it with my Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Write Marker and adhered the panel inside with SNAIL.
