I have made a Flip Flop (or Swing) card with this palette:-
These cards are really quite simple to make, but have a fun factor when you open them & the "flip flop" action happens:-
Here are both the front & reverse sides of the card, fully open:-
I have used the SU Hostess set "Fast & Fabulous" which has sweet two step floral images. I have combined this with the grungy splodges & script from the French Foliage set & added some pearl accents & sponging.
If you would like to try this style of card, I have added the measurements to the photo below:-
