These Slider cards were really easy and so much fun to make... I love these cards at the moment, I'm sure you can tell when you see them all. Though I must admit I am missing one from the collection, which I left behind for some to use as a guide (it was was one of my favourites too).
So of course I did use this card for a workshop project, and yes...everyone loved it!

| No, this wasn't the workshop project, though I did bring it along to show the versatility of the card. I Just loved the idea of putting the car on the slider and now I'd have to say this is probably my most favourite one. (This is not my stamp set by the way, I borrowed it from my wonderful friend Shari, who shares everything, lucky for me) |

I just wanted to mention here that if you want to save on card stock just cut the length of card to 8 1/4" instead of 81/2". This way you'll get two out of a sheet of A4. You will need change one other measurement though, instead of cutting the slot 1 1/2" from the edge you'll cut 1 1/4", you'll also have a smaller section to stick the card together with ( 1/4" instead of 1/2"). I found changing to these measurements was quite easy to adjust. I just wish I had thought of it before I had drawn up the measurements and instructions...
Don't quite get how you did it (guess I need a video) but these are adorable!
ReplyDeleteHi Nancy, the instruction above may be a bit vague, but I had only drawn them up for people to refer back to them after I had demonstrated how to make the card in a work shop. The measurements on the first page of instruction are probably the part people tend to forget when go home & want to make the card again. I have added a link to a video on Dawns blog, it's directly below the page of instructions.
