Slider card with hidden dog :)

Hi everyone!

  Today  I’m sharing a cute slider/peek-a-boo card using some adorable stamp sets such as  Little Something For Harry Stamp Set and Marmalade’s World Stamp Set, which is on discount now by the way.

   When I first saw the cute set with a little dog, I immediately decided that I would make a slider card with a hidden surprise, where the dog must jump out of the mountain of envelopes 

   First, I thought to make a card with only the dog. However, when I was thinking about the details for the card, I noticed an image of a hedgehog that could seem surprised at the appearance of the doggie so I added it into the scene.

 How I made this card you can see in this video.

  

  I keep my card simple to make the focal point on a slider element. I made quick colouring with alcohol markers and I also did some ink blending.

How to Make this card

• Prepare a card base and a white card panel
• Cut out a circle in the centre of the card panel
• Stamp a critter on the right side of the circle die cut and cover the image with a mask
• Apply light green ink on the bottom and two shades of blue inks on the top of the masked image.
• Use dark green ink to stamp  the grass
• On another piece of cardstock  stamp a dog, a flower and several  envelopes
• Color all images and cut them out.
• Glue a little flower to the dog image.
• Cut a slit on the left side of the circle die-cut to create the slider.
•  Make a DIY  slider “holder” from a piece of scrap paper like in the picture below and as I show in the video.
  
• Next, attach this holder to the white stripe of paper
• 
• Insert slider mechanism in the slit created in the circle die cut.
• Keep the long stripe of paper behind the circle die cut.
• Glue the dog image on the holder.
• Foam mount the circle die cut and card panel on the card base. For this die-cut use 1mm foam pads and for card panel – 2 mm foam pads.
• Adhere to envelopes images on the left side of the card panel to hide the dog.
• Add the sentiment and few Nuvo drops.

  I hope that this card will not seem difficult for you to create,. although it is a bit hard to explain how to create it in words, it was really easy and fun to make.
