Spring Cards - Generic

It is very easy to do after folding the first one.
I will add a picture of my finished first card but the decoupage is not my own design.
It will work best on about 160gram card I think as the card I used was a bit too thick and started to pull away at one of the edges.

I cannot begin to tell you how much fun I have had doing these. Hope you all enjoy them as much. Pat x

This is my own take on the original spring card, and I designed it a couple of years ago and have now adapted it to cut on the CR. I have cut it, and it cuts fine in medium weight card. The extra crease in it gives it more stability and makes it sit up more.

I took you literally Ruthan, and made a spring card for my challenge entry.

I used a photograph that I took a few years ago of the bluebells in the wood near us, and made it into a ‘negative’ pyramage that I cut on the Robo. The blue card and rub on greeting have been in my cupboard for years, so I hope they count as old forgotten stash.

The GSD file was too large to upload, so I have posted the zipped jpeg pyramaged image separately in case it is useful to anyone else.

Thank you for this challenge, I enjoyed thinking about something other than Christmas cards for a while.

Not cut but should be ok
Font is SL Christmas Silhouettes but it has been slightly altered so you shouldn't need it on your pc

And one more ....it also cuts fine

I have adapted a basic spring card and topped it with a paper pieced frog. I kept his feet separate and have stuck them to the bottom flap iykwim. He stands up nicely but I'm not sure his photo shows that too clearly, so I have included a back and a side photo as well.

Anyway, hope this card might be useful to someone.
