| Slider Card |
Interactive Cards are fun to make and receive.They are fairly simple to make too!Here is Santa Claus sliding across the card.
 |
| Interactive Slider Card |
I added a slider mechanism to a side step card to make Santa slide across a Christmas themed landscape.

I handcut a snowman and a house for my Christmas theme.Since I love a bit of texture layered corrugated paper for the chimney and the door of the house.The snowman's hat is also cut from a scrap of corrugated paper.

Here is the template of the house I made.

The berries and holly are homemade embellishments from lightweight
play-dough [Amos company] to which I added a bit of glitter!I also added glitter to all the punched snowflakes.

Interactive Slider Sidestep Card Instructions
I made the side step card following the instructions
here
Cut a slot on any one of the side steps of a Side step Card as shown. You need to use a craft knife to cut a slot as long as you like and wide enough to hold your slider mechanism.
 |
| Slider Card |
Decide on the position of you sliding image.
Take a small piece of double sided foam tape [should be big enough to get a good adhesion but not too big as to hinder your sliding movement on the slot]
Stick your double sided foam tape to the back of your sliding image and place it on the slot of your side step card.Stick a piece of card stock on the other side and your slider is ready!
You can use a
Coin instead of the card on the back of your slider. If you are using a coin Santa will slide back and forth on tilting your card due to the coin sliding. I somehow dont like using a "Penny" slider as it adds so much unnecessary weight to a card and your adhesive has to be really strong too if you are using a coin.
Here is a link to an awesome slider card tutorial by my blogger pal Lisa:

How nice and colourful... love all the detail. I love Amos clay too. Had been hoarding it for years and just discovered last night that most of the tubs have dried up. And I would not let Zeenya use it for all these years, hoarding it. Lol. Wish I had let her use it.
