Now – on to how to make this magic slider card!
Here are the supplies.
The Stamparatus makes this card easy to make.
Stamp and color on the 3-1/4 x 4-3/4 piece of Basic White. (If you are using blends to color, use Memento Ink to stamp the image.) Next, lay the window sheet over this and stamp the image again in StazOn Ink. Watch the video below to catch all of the details.
Use a die or your cutter to create the frame in the card front.
Attach your colored image on the inside of the card so you see it through the frame.
Add adhesive around the frame on the card inside.
Lay the stamped vellum directly over colored image and close the card so the Window Sheet will attach to the card front in the exact place you want it.
Make a cut right along the fold line the extend a little beyond the white cardstock on both sides. This will be for the slider to fit through.
For the slider, trim the 3-3/4 x 5-1/4 white cardstock a little down the side, stopping close to the bottom. This wider width at the bottom will prevent the slider from being pulled all the way out. Insert this into the cut along the fold.
Add Foam Tape Strips to the card inside along both sides and the bottom. Be careful not to put it over the slider.
(If you don’t have foam tape strips, you can cut three narrow strips of white cardstock and glue them together to make your own raised edges.)
Close up the card and watch the magic!

Thank you so much Beverly
My granddaughter was amazed at this card, and the design was tiny so she did a great job of coloring it carefully. We had fun making this, the stamp we used was a cow wearing tennis shoes and a baseball cap.
