Piggin' Skipping Slider card

Hey everyone, 

So today I wanted to share a penny slider card that I've made using Time for Tea Designs Workout pigs.


Firstly I cut a piece of laminate wood effect paper measuring 148mm by 63mm and a piece of silver mirror card to 148mm by 84mm.  Then on the wood effect paper I placed the larger slider element die from the hooray hamsters set roughly in the centre before then running it through my Gemini machine.

 

The idea was to have a pig skipping moving with the slider element, therefore the next step was to colour the pig and skipping rope handles using Spectrum Noir Triblend brush pens and then adhered to skipping rope to the pigs trotters using Gert's glue. Next I stuck down the silver mirror card panel to the top of a 6 by 6 black card blank.

Putting together the slider element you need a penny (well any coin will do but a penny is the cheapest), then I stuck 4 square foam pads across the coin and then stuck another row on top given it slight dimension.  I chose to use square foam pads as I just wanted it to slide back and forth whereas if I wanted it to rotate I would of used round foam pads. 

Then I placed (not adhering) the wood effect paper with gap in the middle on the card where it would sit and then stuck the piece from the middle flat onto the card blank. Then taking the panel of wood effect paper I placed it over the top of the penny with the foam pads coming through the gap, removing the backing paper and then sticking the pig onto the coin


In order to allow the slider element adequate space to move / slide I then put foam tape onto the back of the wood effect paper before then sticking onto the card blank, matching up the small panel already stuck flat so can see behind slider element.


With spectrum noir triblend brush pens I then coloured the additional images I wanted to add to my scene these were already stamped and die-cut using the workout pig stamps and coordinating die set.


After colouring I then stuck down the elements before then die cutting out a speech bubbles using time for tea designs speech bubbles coordinating dies. Once die cut out I then stamped the sentiment 'exercise?? I thought you said extra fries' into the speech bubble using lawn fawn fundamentals jet black ink pad and a small acrylic block.  Finally I stuck the speech bubble onto the card.

 


Here is a video of the slider element in action:

TLC Designs - two cards completed

Hey all! Hope you are all well.  So today I wanted to share two cards I've made using a new company to me (TLC Designs), which I happened to stumble across; the cards are using the company's digital products while I await arrival of my stamps and dies. As with the majority of my blog posts you can find a list of the products used along with a link to them at the end of this post. Pumpkin Gnome Card So firstly for the first card I printed the digital image of the gnome out and then coloured the image using Crafters Companion Spectrum Noir Triblend brush pens, before cutting the image out. I also printed the leaf patterned paper and sentiments which came from the Jack O'Gnome digital stamp set.   On a 7 by 7 inch white card blank I then stuck down the bronze embossed card using red liner tape, which I had cut down to 6 1/2 inches by 6 1/2 inches, before then sticking the leaf patterned paper on top of the bronze card (the leaf paper was 6 inches by 6 inches). I then cut out t

Hey all! So here we are half way through March already and just wanted to remind you to enter into the challenge where as usual it is anything goes, to enter and for more information  click here . Absolutely loving the images I've been able to play with this month on the design team, so much I've made another 2 cards.   So starting with the card on the left the more complex of the two I would say. Firstly I downloaded the digi stamps and printed four images onto a sheet of A4  Color copy 160gsm pape r, which I then cut up to individual toppers.  Using Spectrum Noir Triblend brush pens I coloured in the one of the images, deciding to give the fairy a tanned colour to her skin along with a orange dress and accessories.  I used a spectrum noir clear sparkle pen to go over the fairies wings to give them a sparkle and coloured the bug's wings with a spectrum noir sandstone sparkle pen.   I cut down an A4 piece of super smooth card suitable for alcohol markers to give me a 6 by 6
