An Extra Free Tag Slider Card Project for Christmas.

This is my design

Materials:

Cardstock:   2  x Real Red 10.5 x 14 cm  for Base Card.

                         1  x  Whisper White  7.5 x 12 cm to make the sliding Tag.

                         1  x  Whisper White 10.5 x 5 cm crimped horizontally and tear roughly.

                         1  x  Whisper White  10 x 12.5 cm has the greeting on it. 

                         1  x  Baja Breeze 10.5 x 5 cm crimped horizontally and tear  roughly.

Accessories:  Ribbon, Snail Adhesive, Dimensionals. Scalpel, Ruler and Pencil. 

Step 1.   Stamp and colour your images first.

Step 2:   Attach Baja Breeze and Whisper White together.   I put the White on top because when you pull the card the 

 insert is white and I wanted a definite water line.

 

The measurements are in cm.

 Step 3:   Measure down 2cm from the top and in 2cm from each side.   Now cut  vertical lines 10.5 cm down.  Do this on both Sides then join the cuts to make a flap.

Step 4:    Score 1.5 cm from the bottom cut (only on the flap)  Then at 4.5 cm and the last score line is at the top of the card between the beginning of the cuts.

Step 5.   Place adhesive along the bottom of the white tag.  Then attach the tag to the 1.5 cm scored section of the flap only.   This becomes the working mechanism.

Step 6.   Attach the second piece of white  to the base card and then stamp a greeting  towards the top. 

Step 7.   The back and the front can now be stuck together.  

Step  8.   All that is left to do is decorate the card with your crimped card and attach the coloured image. 

Step 9.    Last of all attach the ribbon to the tag.  This just makes it easier to push in and pull out.

Enjoy and keep stamping  Kym

Watercolouring on plain card.

Watercolouring on normal cardstock (whisper white or very vanilla) does take practise.  If you over brush your image it will cause pilling.

Time to get ready for Fathers Day!

I find Father’s Day creeps up on me and I have to hurry on that Sunday Morning to find a card for the kids.  This year I decided to try and have it made at least a week before.  I find mens cards are rare in the world of stamping so my aim for this week is to make at least 5 cards for a man.  I will post one each day starting from 28th August.  Hope you join me each day to see what I have come up with.
