Fifth Avenue Slider

I have had such a big weekend, Well the biggest I have had in a few months, But I can say I have had a great weekend. One of my Fabulous Downlines Maree arrived in Sydney on Friday Afternoon from Jindabyne for a weekend of Stamping, Shopping and Catching up. So Friday night she and 9 others come over for a Christmas SAS {which I will show later in the week}, Saturday we went to the Stiches and Craft show were I met up with some old and new downlines {Waving Julia and Kate}, Shopped a little but with all the excitement I left very early and went home for a “Nanna Nap” before Maree come over for a dinner and a Stamping Session that night, Maree and I have these session when ever she comes to Sydney and I try to show her as much as I can fit into 5 or so hours, Then she going back home and shows her Friends and Customers.

One of the projects Maree and I made last night was this double Slider card, Which we watched the SUPER talented Makeesha Byl make it in her presentation at Convention back in May. I made mine a little different but Makessha has a tutorial on her blog showing you how to make one HERE {Thank you Makeesha if you read my blog}. All I did was were Makessha made hers like a pocket starting with 10.5cm x 21cm strip, that she folders in half. I started with a A5 sheet folded in half which is my card base, I also had a A6 Card front {Baja Breeze} that I trimmed a little to show a boarder once attached to the card base. By Doing this it turned it into a Card instead of a pocket.

I think I need to add a tab or ribbon to make it easier to pull, You can see here why they call it a Double slider card.

Inside the card: Because I have “SO” many layers of cardstock on the front of the card, I needed to “weight” the back down so it did not fall over when standing. I have just stamped the 3 flower images from Fifth Avenue Floral on Whisper White and layered that on Kiwi Kiss Cardstock then attached to the inside card. Not sure why I took the photo like this on a angle but you get the gist.
