Desperate for help with swing cards

[wdstamper]

Hi all,

I know the directions for a swing card are posted in the techniques section and I have tried and tried and tried and cannot figure this technique out. I am ready to pull my hair out!! :?

Could someone, please please please try to explain this to me? I would so so so greatly appreciate the help.

TIA,

Wendy

Is it possible the "swing" card you refer to is a.k.a. "Flip-flop" card? Meaning, the center pivots around to reveal another image on the other side when you pull at the sides?

If so, see if the attached diagram helps!

LOL! thanks. Actually, I am blind as a bat!!!!

I quit wearing my contacts and wear my funky glasses now, but the glare was causing problems as my dd tried to take photos so I slipped 'em off . . .

It has taken me FOREVER to figure out how to resize the photo small enough to make it work as an Avatar!

Now I should have dd take a photo with my specs on so you can see the REAL me! Hah! I'm hoping I qualify for Lasik surgery next fall; the gift of good sight is something I've longed for since 3rd grade . . .
