Slider Card

The holidays are over and it's back to work tomorrow. We took our tree down today and packed up all of the decorations. Yesterday we took a ride to Point Pleasant and poked through a ton of antique shops. We had the best lunch at a place called The Beanery. We ordered a friut and cheese platter and a fresh mozzarella, roasted red pepper, and balsamic foccacia sandwich. We shared both. It was so good it's the kind of thing you know you will have a craving for one day and have to make the trip to get it. They had a dessert menu that looked incredible, but we resisted temptation this time. Then, when we got home, I had time to make some cards. I really wanted to try making a slider card. I saw it on Jennifer Maguire's Blog and it really was easy to make.

I stamped the butterfly on some acetate and then heat embossed it with clear embossing powder. I folded it in half and punched a hole in only the bottom half and slid it onto the ribbon.

I made a few other cards too. For this one I used my Polka Dot Basics stamp set and some paper scraps that have been around here forever.

One last card before I go. This year I am really trying to use the things I already have. This card uses a fabric tape that I have been holding onto for a long time and one of the first stamps I ever purchased, the dragonfly.
