This is called a flip flap card. It's been around for awhile and it is making a come back. I've seen it online again so I decided to make a couple of these card designs.
This basically a flat card that doesn't open like a normal A2 card. The flap layer is the opening of the card.
Measurements:
base card: 5 1/2" x 4 1/4"
pattern paper: 5 1/4" x 4"
flap layer: 1 3/4" x 4 5/8" score at 1/2"
circle dies: different sizes
Instructions:
1. fold on score line of the flap layer and adhere the folded section to the back of the pattern paper.
2. adhere the flap layer with the pattern paper to the base card.
3. adhere the biggest circle die to the flap layer but only adhere half of the circle die.
4. flip the flap layer up, and with a small piece of re-positional tape, add second circle die of the same size to the back of the circle die on the front of the flap. Add glue/tape to the back of second circle that is attached with re-positional tape. Next flip the flap down to position the second circle die to the base card. The second circle die should now be positioned on the base card and when the flap is closed the circle dies should match.
5. stamp the white circle dies and adhere to the front and inside circle dies.
You are now done with your Flip Flap card and when you flip the front up you will reveal the message under the front flap.
Hope you enjoyed this Flip Flap card as much as I have and make some of your own. Thank you for stopping by and come back again soon.

I like these, and they look pretty simple. Will have to give them a try. I did make one of the floating frames, and it came out great. Having a busy weekend, but will send you a photo later in the week.
yes, this card is an easy one but a fun one. you made a floating frame card ... that's great! I'm sure it is wonderful.
