Over the Moooon for you!

Holy Cow it's a slider card!

This may look hard but it is really not.

Items you need

Card Base - I used and A2 sized base then trimmed about 1/4" off the bottom.
Card front - Mine measures 4x5".
Desired Images
Paper Trimmer or Xacto knife
Pull Tab - Mine measures 3/4" x 7" - Score in half
Stabalizer tabs - I used 2 - 1/4" x 2 1/2" strips

Okay here is the low down

Take your card front and cut two slits evenly space from each other.  I wanted mine in the center about 1" from the top.  Cut them as long as you want your slider to move.  So I cut mine at 1 3/4" from each side and made them about 2" long.

Take the stabilizer tabs and insert one at the bottom of the slits and adhere one to the top back of the card.

This is the back fo the card.  Remember the only adhesive used so far is to stick the top strip the the card front but on the back.

Next fold you pull tab in half (this helps it to be stronger, can use tear and tape to adhere together) and position it in the center of your stabilizers and the bottom lining up with the bottom stabilizer.  You can use some washi tape or low tack tape to temporarily hold this in place.  Now put a small piece of double stick tape along the bottom of the pull tab and fold over the stabilizers so they are around the pull tab. *Only put tape on the bottom of the pull tab. Next use more double stick tape to adhere the stabilizer to itself.  When you fold the stabilizers around the pull tab do so snugly but not too tight or the pull tab will not slide very easily.

The slider mechanism is now done! Yay
Now is the time to do all your ink blending, stamping etc to your card front. Do this before you add the element that will slide.  Ask me how I know.  I was ahead of myself a time or two. =)

When you are ready to add you element take a mini dimensional and put it on the stabilizer portion visible on the front of the card.  If you make the stabilizer thicker then you can use a regular dimensional.  Then attach the sliding element (in my case the cow) to the dimensional.  I like to pull the tab and make sure all is working right.  When your element is pulled up then you can hide another image under it.  It is finished.  Yay.

If you want more ideas for this stamp set see my post yesterday.

Let me know if you have any questions, and I'd would love to see your slider cards.

Happy Stamping
