Default flip flop or swing card

I would like to try to make a flip flop/swing card, but I am not finding directions for this technique. Can anyone help? Thanks

Default Flip Flop instructions

Here are the instructions that I typed up to add to the swing card in my gallery. I don't have a link but check it out, if you like.

Flip Flop / Swing Instructions

Here are the cutting directions:

1)Cut cardstock to 6 1/2" x 5 1/2"

2)After this, I marked everything in pencil (only dark enough to be able to see well) on the cardstock before I cut anything, to prevent over-cutting.

3) Sides are 1 �� from edge

4) Bottom and top are �� from edge

5) Score for the folds are 1 �� in from the side marking - only mark to lines for bottom and top cut lines.

6) Now you can cut and score, making sure to stop where lines intersect. I used an Exacto knife and ruler to follow the straight lines. Fold one end forward and the other back at the score lines.

7) Once it is cut and scored, the pencil marks are easily erased.

Folded dimensions are 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"

These cards are time consuming, but they are really unique when they are done.

Thank you so much. I am still trying to get the hang of this site and sometimes can't find things that are right under my nose.
