#G45Leveled-Up Card Set using Flight of Fancy
Tutorial by Gina Long
“I’m so happy to be back on the blog this month!
Today, I have a #LevelUp Project to share with you.
We will return to 2022 Vol. 3 Let it Bee – Busy Bees ATC – Card Set for this project.
I leveled it up by using the Flight of Fancy Paper collection and A2 card size, not using the tag on the front but the chipboard frames, Ephemera, and the paper collection, and I have three different ways to make them in case you’re missing an element.

Peek-a-Boo Window Card Set Tutorial
For the first card, I used Ephemera on the front to connect the top and bottom. Added a border to the bottom, some Ivory Glitter Washi tape, a bow, and a die-cut butterfly.
On the inside, I used Folder & Sentiment Dies to cut Happy Birthday; my pull-out tag and butterfly (on the front) are from Tag, Pocket & Butterfly Dies, and I finished it by adding some ephemera to the back of my front Ephemera.
For the second card, I used a chipboard frame, adding transparency, and used some of the rub-on transfers. I added a die-cut Hello, a bow, and a border.
On the inside, I made another tuck spot under the image and added an ATC tag cut from a journaling card and a few stickers.
For the third card, I fussy cut an image and a few flowers from the paper; I also cut the card front differently and added a sticker border to the top and die-cut “Thanks,” which I added to the bottom.
I finished the inside by adding a white ATC tag and images from the paper collection.
I like how the chipboard frames look on the front, and I made one more card.
