Spinning Slider Card

This interactive card mechanism goes by various names you can call it a spinning card or a slider card or a penny slider card. It is such an easy mechanism that I thought I would share the method. I promise you it is a hit with anyone who receives it. We are all kids at heart and love to play!

1. Choose a rectangular or oblong shape 

2. Mark out the area for the sliding mechanism.- it needs to be large enough to stick a double sided foam tape.

3. Cut out the marked area- make smooth cuts so that your image can slide and spin smoothly

4.Place the image on the cut out slider and check out positioning
5.Use Double sided Foam tape- its the easiest.Give enough room to allow the image to slide.
6.Use a coin or a disc of thick card like I did and stick it to foam tape on the image
7.Stick the Whole slider piece on the card.
