I made this card for a friend who loves to dance. It turned out so cute! I made the card base with my Gypsy by welding two frames together. You can see the tiny "hinge" on top of the card. If I were to make this card again, I would weld a thick rectangle at an angle on the side and make the hinge thicker to hold it better. For this card, I tried something I hadn't done before. I am not a fan of trying to glue down teeny tiny letter pieces perfectly straight onto a card. What I did for this card is I cut the letters right into the black background with my Gypsy. It was so much easier! The only parts I had to worry about were the little center pieces for my "a" and "e". Waaaayyyy easier! My friend loved her card. It was almost too cute to give away!
