Cricut DS Swing Flip card



There was some talk on the boards of not being able to make a swing card with the cricut. In SCAL this is an easy task, but in DS its a bit more challenging. I like a good challenge so I thought I'd give it a try. This is done in George, baby bug OK. I put the mats on the second page, but included the dimensions, they could easily just be done by hand. For this one I used Stampin' UP Inspired by Nature stamp set. The FAITH charm is metal/purchased, and the bible verse is just printed out. The butterfly is my newest Martha punch. I punched it once out of yellow, then once out of vellum, and tied the two together with black string. I tied the knot at the top so it would look like little antenna (I'm feeling rather cleaver for that :)

If you don't have a cricut and you want to make a swing card, you can find great instructions here (actually good to see anyway, so you can see the scoring at 32 3/4 and 4 1/4):
