Happy Saturday! It's Rae with you today to share my projects that I have made with the beautiful May kit, Spring Chic. I love the Spring colors and the feminine feel to this kit, featuring the Kaisercraft "So Lovely" and Bo Bunny "Garden Journal" collections.

"Precious Moments" Flip Frame

The size of paper that works best for the inside of this frame 3 1/4 X 5 1/4. You can get six panels from a 12X12 piece of paper.

Once you have cut your panels, you will need to cut to holes for the rings. In the picture below, on the black panel, you can see a line- I measured a half inch down and drew the line. Then a half inch in on each side, I marked where the holes should be, then hole punched, using the smaller hold on the Cropadile. I did the same thing on the paper I used to cover the panel.

Here is a picture that shows how straight it is:

But, it all depends on where the rings are placed on the frame. If the middle of the clasp, where the bolt is, is in a different spot, it can look like this:


That is the same panel that I measured and cut, but those rings move and it won'y always look perfect!

In this picture you can see that I cut the top of the blue flower die cut. Even thought I loved the look, the top interfered with flipping that panel over, so when you design your panels or pages for your flip frame, just be aware of putting embellishments at the top can be in the way for a good "flip." However, the sides and bottom can have over flowing items with little trouble.

Thanks for letting me share my projects with you, as these will be the last I make for some time, as I prepare for a big move. I hope to be back to being an active Swirly Girl by September!
