A Magic Slider Card

Hi, I hope your day is going REALLY well! I have been playing with "Slider" cards and today's card is another example of one of these cards. I saw Christina Griffiths demoing this on YouTube and thought 'd have a go too.

Here's the video that caught my eye:

So here's my version of this type of card!

I used Kaisercraft Grape weave cardstock for my card base, American Crafts white cardstock, clear acetate and a Jet Black Stazon ink pad.

The stamp is an old Flourishes image, sadly they are no longer in business. However, the artist Marcella Hawley has her own business called "Poppy Power" and the link in the ingredients to the stamps I am using is her variation of this stamp. You can also see it >>>> HERE.

The flower is Tattered Blossoms from Heartfelt Creations with glitter added.

The flourishes are from Arianna Blooms Lace die from Heartfelt Creations as well.

The ivy is a Sue Wilson die from the Greek Collection.






The rest of my photos just show the slider in action..........

Just a little pull on the tag and the magic starts to happen!
By The Way the white "Film Strip" on the side of the card is an old white peel off that I have had in my stash for ages.

I used a Fiskars one inch punch to make the tabs and pull space. I used a yellow eyelet and an eyelet setting tool so the ribbon could be added.

A little bit more and the flowers come into bloom. I coloured the images using a variety of Copics.

Voila!

Here's how I decorated the back of the card. The sentiment is from JustRite Stamps, the cardstock is from a Kasiercraft "Sweet Treats" 12 x 12 paper pad and finally the punch used on the back panel of the card is from Martha Stewart.

A ring accordion Christmas Card

Hello good blogging friends and family. I trust all is well with you and you have enjoyed your Wednesday.
I have another Christmas card to show you.
Here it is:

I made the base of the card using an Elizabeth Craft Design die and some metallic red card stock from an American Crafts 12 x 12 card stock. I cut a circle with white card stock using the 3inch circle die from another ECD die set. Then stamped a Flourishes die in Tuexedo black ink and coloured it with my copic sketch markers. Then fussy cut the image and stuck it to the white circle die cut. I hand wrote the words and used a Deco paint pearl pen to make faux pearls around the edge.

Here is the card opened up. It shows a sentiment on the second panel and a La La Land digi stamp on the last/third panel. This too was coloured with my copics.

Here's a close up of the La La Digi image I used.
He;s really cute I think.

A Christmas Elf, 3 panel accordion Card

Hello. I hope you are having (or have had) a great day today and are looking forward to a nice weekend. The weather here is REALLY heating up and Sunday promises temperatures of mid to late 30's in Celcius. Today we had 31 degrees although there was a little wind which cooled us a little. Average temperatures for this time of year are 24 degrees. The weatherman said tonight on the news that it was the hottest November for 20 years!!

Today's card is a rectangle accordion, here it is:

Here is the front panel.
I used an Elizabeth Craft designs accordion die to make the frames.

The little elf is a La La Land Digi die that I coloured with my Copic markers.

The sentiment was stamped using a Memento black Tuxedo ink pad.

My apologies I cannot remember what the  brand of the card stock was - it probably was a kaisercraft 12 x 12 Christmas paper.

Here is the card opened out.

I used washi tape on the top and bottom of the writing panel and used a Hero Arts stamp for the sentiment.

For the last panel I used a flourishes stamp and coloured it with my Copics and I fussy cit it out.
I used an oval cut from white card stock which I had left over from another card for the background.

Here is the back of the card which I added the ECD star edges to to finish it off.


Here are the main ingredients I used to make my card:
