Good morning :0)
Two posts in two days!!!..... that's unheard of round here, but.....
...... after tuning into Less is More yesterday morning and seeing a sketch staring back at me I knew it was time to put an idea I've had, simmering on the back burner, into action especially with the Giggle challenge at CASology calling to me too.....
This is the first 'slider' interactive card I think I've made (it took long enough so I should remember!) .... the stamps are freebies from the front of Craft Stamper magazine and it is they that set the seeds of creativity!!
Apologies to Chrissie and Jen -The actual imagery fits the sketch at LiM although the raised panel is larger because of the logistics of the interactive piece..... I hope that's okay??
Oh yes, here are the photos of the action in the correct order....
I was torn between using AVAILABLE and FREE.... (vacant just wasn't going to do) I think either would be fun..... this is just the style of card that I'm drawn to in the shops :0)
I don't have the equipment for video tutorials and anyhow this would be an epic so I have shot a few photos of the workings on this card as I assembled it...
That makes it look a lot easier than it was and I suppose if you take out all the phaffing about and having to remake the front panel again!!!.... it was :0)
Okay, that's a lot of scrolling down for everyone for one day!! I just have two more pics to include so I don't get in trouble...

This is just great Jenny, we have a similar sense of humour. Thanks for the photos, I was wondering how you had achieved the slider part.
ReplyDeleteWas just admiring this card over on Flickr, nice to see the "how to" photos here - it's a great card! :)

Lots of love for here, Jenny, and rightly so! What a brilliant giggly card! I'm delighted that you won the CASology challenge!!
ReplyDeleteSo funny and clever!! Totally love it!
ReplyDeleteFabulous! You know I'm a big fan of interactive cards ;)
ReplyDelete:)
Brilliant idea Jenny, and so clever :)x
ReplyDeleteWow, that's fantastic! What a great idea and perfect execution - I think frustrating process was well and truly worth it!
ReplyDeleteWhat an amazing idea, Jenny! Your execution is fabulous too. It's a double interactive card with the heart and the sentiment. Reminds me of the port-a-potties at the ball fields I saw (and thankfully didn't have to use) today ... how they have that slider that goes from "available" to "occupied"!
