Since I love buildings (it's the civil engineer in me, LOL!), I wanted to put a building on the front of a card.
This card is 3.75" x 5.5" and will easily fit into an A2 envelope.
Since the card is a little bulky, it's good there is some extra room available!
The house is building2 on the Cricut Winter Woodland cartridge (NOT a 3-d building) and is cut at 4", with all layers, shadow and blackout.
The card is layered with the Basic Grey Thin Ice Paper cut at 3.5"x5.5", white glitter paper at 3.25"x 5.25", then pink cardstock at 3 1/8"x5", then the blue swirls at 3"x4.5".
The two slider pieces are cut at 3.5"x5.5" and the top piece is accented with a "Merry Christmas" stamp outlined with pink Core'dinations paper.
The bottom slider piece can be stamped, written on, etc. to personalize the card.
Below, the card has been completely slid open! So, how do you make this card?
Conveniently, I have made a short video showing you! See below for the video OR click HERE if you are unable to view it!

Oh my gosh! This cartridge is so cute! I especially love the snow flakes. I live in Texas, so we don't get too many of those. I have to make my own. Thanks for the chance to win it!
ReplyDeleteLove the card and thanks for the awesome video because it helps so much to see it in action.
ReplyDeleteI made a double slider card years ago (had come across a tutorial), but it was the only one I have made. So thank you for the reminder about these fun cards! I do enjoy making moving cards, but usually don't take the time to do it!
ReplyDeleteI don't know which I love more, your website or Anna Griffin. You are both wonderful. I have never won anything and this cartridge would be the bomb. Thanks for all you do for all of us! Marilyn in Oregon
ReplyDeleteI have got to try this--never made a double slider card before!! I have made several interactive card before but not recently. Looking forward to trying this one.
ReplyDeleteI have got to try this--never made a double slider card before!! I did make a pop up card after watching your video and love it. Thank you for all your videos they help so much.
ReplyDeleteI am loving the slider card! I made a cool moving card with some playing cards and a brad: http://joanieloves.blogspot.com/2010/02/ghosts-of-projects-past-royal-flush.html
ReplyDeleteI did not know how to do that--usually fancy moving cards intimidate me, but that looks pretty easy to do! And so cute, I'm actually going to try it!

Love the slider card, may have to try that one out! Would love to own that cartidge, great images! Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteIt's a beautiful card, but I'm not sure I'm willing to put that much effort into a card. I'd rather put that effort into a mini album or something more likely to be looked at over and over.
ReplyDeleteVery cool--I have never made one of these.
ReplyDeleteI love this project and am obsessed with that pom pom trim! Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card. I was not familiar with a moving card. I do more scrapbooking than card making, but could be fun to incorporate into a scrapbook page.

What a fantastic card & video! I am very new to the Cricut and cardmaking. Your video was very clear and I think I am going to attempt a double slider Christmas card myself. I had heard the term "slider card" before but your video & blog was the first time I had actually seen one.

ReplyDeleteYour video made this card seem so easy that I will have to try it!

Oh, I remember this video and card but I am still going to watch it again! I have made cocoa sliders and another mini-slider called a wiper card and I LOVE anything interactive. Your double slider card is not only cute, it's genius in ho it works!
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving. Hope you have a great day. I have never made a slider card, it looks so fun. I am going to make it soon. Cards are my favorite craft to do. My cricut is my best friend.
