Just popping in quickly to post the video I promised. This fall flip card was a lot of fun to make and it’s super easy.

Basic Gray 3-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ (plus a strip that’s about 3/4″ x 11″ for the top of the envelope)
Crumb Cake 2-3/4″ x 5-1/2″
Whisper White 2-1/2″ x 3-3/4″ (3)
Crumb Cake splattered piece of DSP 2-3/4″ x 3-1/4″

Hope you have a great weekend everyone!
Whenever you’re using dies…especially these pretty fall stitched ones…remember to maximize the value of your set by using the positive and negative portions of the dies.
Take a look and see what I mean.
Those negative images can be used in creative ways. I made something fun today that I’d like to share. (Thank you to paulinespapier for the inspiration.)
I find it hard to use the yellow tones some days, but I’m really happy how this turned out! The card is actually a flip card with 3 separate layers.
Each layer shows all three colors in the color combo I chose – Bumblebee (a new InColor), Smoky Slate, and the yellow/orange tones in the amazing Plaid Tidings DSP pack. 
I was going to punch two holes in the top, but I’m glad I stopped myself! This way is waaayyy cuter!! I simply ran a 16″ piece of linen thread through the last layer and tied a knot at the top. Now the recipient can have the option of hanging this card on a door knob or hook 
Of course a pretty card deserves a pretty package so I made a pocket from one of our medium Whisper White envelopes. I simply slit one end of it open first and then sealed the envelope. Now it becomes a pocket. It looked a bit too plain for my liking so I ran it through my new Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine (which I absolutely LOVE!!) with the Scripty 3D Embossing Folder. 
There are a few more details I added to complete this project. I am going to try and do a short video in the next couple of days showing how I made these projects. So you can check back later.
