Christmas Series | Day #3 Winter Wonder Slider Card

Happy Wednesday! I am finally back with another video in my Christmas 2016 Series! Life has been knocking us for a loop these days. I am really hoping for some “calm” and sameness before the holiday season hits! I think we are due! In times when there are a lot of stressful things going on, I try to find a little time to do some crafting. It soothes my soul and centers me. I was so excited to sit down with all these Whimsy Products to create this slide card!

I think that this image is absolute perfection. As soon as I saw it in the new release, I knew that it would work really well in a slider type card. Just a little cutie walking along with her teddy in tow :)

Below you can see all the different stages of “slidiness”! I just love how it turned out. I am going to leave all the rest of the explanation to my video which you will find below all the photos!

Slider Card | Whimsy Stamps July Release

Happy Wednesday! This month is just flying by! Our family has quite a few birthdays this month so we are doing a lot of celebrating! I have a little less time in the craft studio but when I do have time, I have been having fun with so many of the new Whimsy products!

Today I have a fun slider card that I made with some of Whimsy Stamps new July release! I LOVE, LOVE the new slider die set! I knew right away that I waned to pair it up with the new Hugs ‘n Fishes stamp set. Also, I finally was able to get the Hand-stitched Rectangle die set…..it has been selling out so quick! I really like that the stitching detail is a little wavy as opposed to being straight all the way around. It is just a little more whimsical this way!

I will let you in on a little secret. Although I had seen slider cards up on Pinterest and Instagram…..I had no idea how to make one. When you watch the video, this was my first attempt. You will see that I learned a few things along the way! I do have to say that I am hooked and more slider cards will be showing up here soon.
