Double Slider Card




Hello!


I have been trying to experiment with interactive cards. Here one of the projects that we did at club last week. This is a Double Slider Card made with a strip of grocery bag. When you pull the ribbon on top, both the top and the bottom card inserts slide in opposite directions. Pretty cool!!

It was actually pretty easy to make and I only had to do it once to be ready to demonstrate it for my club.

The easiest way to learn how to do this is this type of card is to watch a video tutorial.
I first seen a tutorial of this technique on a video made by Dawn. Click here to see it.
You need:
(1) 5.5 X 11 CS (scored at 3 1/2, 7 1/8, 10 5/8)
(1) 1 1/2 x 12 1/2 strip of plastic grocery bag
(2) Whipser White CS pieces- 3 1/4 x 5 3/4
Stamp set used: Wings of Friendship (Level 2 Hostess set)
The video call for different dimensions than the ones I noted above. I decided to do a shorter card and shortened the dimensions.
Try it! You will be so impressed with yourself when you have completed it;)
Have a great night!

Spinner Card

Last month at my CSD class, I had a special request: a spinner card. I drew a blank and ran home to google "spinner card". For those of you who are drawing a blank too, a spinner card has a circular object on it that spins when you tilt the card. Pretty cool right!

So...here it is, my version of a spinner card. You need two pennies and dimensionals to make it spin. It is really easy to make! You can click here to see a video tutorial for the spinner card.

Here is the recipe for my card:

  • Paper: Basic Gray CS, Thoroughly Modern DSP, Bermuda Bay CS, Whisper White CS
  • Stamps: Starring
  • Ink: Bermuda Bay
  • Accessories: Word Window Punch (you can also use exacto knife to make the horizontal opening, 2 Pennies, dimensionals, Scallop Circle Punch, Circle Punch


Notes: To make spinner, add a dimensional to your scallop circle, then add a penny, add another dimensional and a final penny. Insert the finished spinner in word window
