Slider Card Tutorial and Lagoon Blog Hop

Create a fun slider card with materials from Club Scrap's Lagoon collection by reading on!



What's the Lagoon collection, you ask? Learn more about it HERE, and participate in an inspiring blog hop featuring the kit starting HERE.

I created a 5x7" version of the slider card structure by following a tutorial that involved scoring first and then cutting the score lines.


I installed the art panel to the front of the slider and placed adhesive only on the lower portion of the mechanism to create a pop-up.



I experimented with revising the method of construction and chose to create a standard 4.25x5.5" card by using one of my favorite tools: the 2x8"Acrylic Grid Ruler. Make an adorable pull tab for the slider with the Vintage Botany mini sticker tags.





The fun greetings for the card came from the Lagoon Greeting sheet. The cute fish is included on the Art Nouveau UM stamp sheet.

A video tutorial is worth a million words, so tune in below to learn how to make the card!


And now it's time to swim over to Pam's blog to see what the tide brings in.

Have a creative day!

    OH my GAAAH! How cool! Now I am itching to get home to my craft room to try my hand! (I cleaned it up and organized over the rainy weekend...nothing like creating in a clean space!) I know what I'll be doing tonight!

    Your cards are so clever, the Lagoon theme is adorable! I don't think I could make it in the crafting world without my 2x8" Grid Ruler, one of my favorite Club Scrap tools for sure.

    Adding this to my "Must Try" folder! I have a feeling I'll have to do a trial run on scratch paper first. :)

    I love cards like this that make recipient goggle and ask how you did it and tell you that you're a creative genius. Yes, this is one of those cards!
