Fun Fold Slider Card | Sophisticated Sled

The Sophisticated Sled Bundle (stamps + dies) is my favorite new Online Exclusive product. The ability to stamp and die cut your images or create a sled using the dies makes this Stampin’ Up! combination a winner when creating your winter cards.

One of my favorite products is Versamark ink. This watermark ink pad allows you to stamp directly on colored cardstock to achieve tone-on-tone designs.

Grandparents’ Day Card | Playing in the Rain

Grandparents’ Day is coming up on September 8 and I’ve had numerous requests for card ideas for this occasion. The Playing in the Rain stamp set is perfect for the kids to color.

The coordinating Playing in the Rain Dies made creating the scene quick and easy. My images were colored using Stampin’ Blends alcohol based markers.

The top area of this slider card provides the perfect spot for coordinating images or a greeting. Here I’ve used the Softly Said greeting stamped in the same Boho Blue as the cardstock. It provides a more vibrant color versus the the Versamark ink used for the daisies.

Instead of threading the ribbon for the pull out tag, I opted to use a few Glue Dots to attach the ribbon then stapled it in place using this mini stapler HERE.
