I have been telling myself forEVUH that I was going to start doing video tutorials for y'all . . . and at long last I finally DID one! I am so proud of me!! :) (I hate to admit that this took me the better part of today as the learning curve was a bit CURVIER that I had planned!)I have been seeing these darling hinged cards all over place (SCS, blogs, etc.). I finally broke down and made this one yesterday for WT217 - to incorporate kraft cardstock into your card. I really like how this turned out, and it was dang fun, ta-boot!! Between the hinges and the watercolor roses I have been keeping myself MUI busy this week!
Stamps: Fifth Avenue Floral, Thoughts & Prayers
Paper: Kraft, Very Vanilla, Not Quite Navy, Bella Blue dsp
Ink: Not Quite Navy
And here is what it looks like with the "hinge" open . . .
And here is the tutorial . . . come back on Mother's Day (this Sunday!) as I will have another hinged card to show you that I made for my mom!!
Have a wonderful weekend . . . :)

What a beautiful card. Thank you for the tutorial. I like your idea of using your border punch for a corner punch.

Great tutorial, Wendy! Thanks!
What a fantastic tutorial! Thanks so much!!!! God Bless!
Thank you Wendy! I have to hostess my monthly card club in June and have been hunting all over for an idea for something new to demonstrate at club! This is too cute! Now I just need to run out and buy a border punch (do you believe there's someone who doesn't have one yet?).
This is new to me and I'm already hooked after viewing your tutorial. Thanks so much for sharing.
thanks Wendy girl!!
Woohooo Wendy! Great tutorial, and so fabulous to see it featured on today's TLC! LOVE it! It was wonderful to hear your sweet, familiar voice! I think it is time for another phone chat! It's been a while ;)
Congrats on your first video tutorial, Wendy! You do an awesome job, and I'm looking forward to making one of these. Thanks, too, for sharing the tip on using your regular border punches for the corners. I really like how that finishes your beautiful card!
Thank you for sharing! Your video was perfect. Very clear, concise and easy to understand. Excellent job, beautiful card!

Great Tutorial! Thanks. I had made a hinged card already, but it was basic and I love how yours was a little more refined and loved hiding the brad that way too!
Love your card and thanks for sharing your fabulous tutuorial!

Wow! There's always something new. I hadn't seen this technique yet. Great card, awesome video, and the border punch corner idea (YOU ;-) thought up) was terrific! Thanks for all your work making the tutorial.
Great job with the tutorial, Wendy.
Wonderful instructions and easy to follow....
What an AWESOME tutorial! Thank you SO much!!!
Loved your card and your tutorial was so easy to follow. I loved that you gave us the sizes of each of the pieces of card stock. That helps to much! Thanks for the great idea in hiding the brad. Keep up the good work. I appreciate all you hints and I love following your butterflies.
Thank you so much for a terrific tutorial. I love it. Your detail is wonderful on this card. Terrific job..
What a great tutorial, Wendy! Thank you! I had told myself that one day I would figure these out, but your toot will solve that for many a delighted stamper!
Cheers from Texas!

This is the COOLEST EVER hinged card I've ever seen. Just the border punch-turned-into-a-coordinating-corner punch was "worth the cost of admission". Oh, if I could only ever have an original thought of my own. Can't wait to try this! This one knocked my socks off!

Hi Wendy - I was admiring your blog and was hoping to find your tutorial on the hinged card but don't see anything but a blank space there when I view it. Can you send it to me at stampingooddeeds@yahoo.com? Thanks!

Never saw a hinged card before,
but now definitely going to make one !
Loved your tutorial! Gave it a try last night. What fun!
Celebrate!

This is the card I made with your tutorial, thanks so much for it.
Lovely clear tutorial. I've sent a link to you for my card swap group to have a go at this. I love your idea of using your border punch for corners, and your hide the brad border along the back. Looking forward to making one of these. Hugs lin
