Hinge Card

I had never tried a Hinge Card until I saw the Technique Lover's Challenge this morning. I watched Wendy Weixler's video tutorial then plunged right in.


The image is the small group of flowers in Flourishes' new Nastutiums set. I colored it with Copic markers and then added the photo corner punches, layered SU and EK Success. The River Rock hinged piece is stamped in Versamark with another image from the Nasturtiums set. While the punched out flowers are definitely not nasturtiums, I colored them the same as the printed image and backed them with some nasturtium leaves cut from the large image.


The inside is stamped with the sentiment from the same set.


* Stamps - Nasturtiums by Flourishes

* Paper - Very Vanilla, Mellow Moss, River Rock, Groovy Guava DSP

* Ink - Palette Noir Black, Mellow Moss, Versamark

* Accessories - Nestabilities square scallop, Copic markers, Martha Stewart border punch, Stampin' Up and EK Success photo corner punches, Marvy daisy punches, Brad, Ribbon
