Charming Duck Slider Card

 

I recently learned how to make slider cards--where an image slides across the card as you pull out the insert--and I decided to give it a try with the new Charming Duck Pond bundle.

You can watch my Facebook Live tutorial HERE (no ads), or catch it on YouTube linked below:


Measurements:
  • Balmy Blue: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2, score at 4 and 8
  • Balmy Blue (flap for sliding): 3/4 x 1-1/2, score at 3/4
  • Basic White: 3-3/4 x 5
  • Grassy DSP piece: 3-3/4 x 5-1/4
  • Peach Pie: Punch a 1-1/4" circle
  • Basic White: scraps to die-cut the greeting piece with Stylish Shapes Dies, and to stamp and die-cut the duck image
  • DSP (Peach Pie striped or floral piece): 1/2" x 3" (or more, however long you like it)
The videos linked above will show you how to put this card together.  You can see a different version of the insert below with the little frog image instead of ducks:


The first card I attempted this technique with was an airplane card made with the Adventurous Sky bundle.  I watched a video from Rachael Merrick to learn how to make this kind of card.  I switched the measurements to inches, but if you prefer centimeters, click HERE to check out Rachael's video!


I will be featuring the Charming Duck Pond bundle in my Card Club this month.  If you would like to make the following cards with me (2 each of 4 designs), sign up by June 10th (you can choose one month only, PDF only, or get an ongoing Card Club subscription).  Learn all about my monthly card club HERE.


I hope you give these slider cards a try!  You can find the supply list for the duck card at the end of this post.  

Don't forget--time is running out to register for the crafting cruise in October of 2024!  I am co-hosting this epic crafty get away with my good friend, Cindy Lake.  We will have 24 projects for you to make on sea days, then you can enjoy the Eastern Caribbean on port days (or stay in the craft room and crop).  The special group rates on cruise cabins will end June 20th, so don't delay booking this fun vacation!  Click on the picture below for more information:


Happy stamping!
