Instructions: This Z slider card measures 17.5 cm x 21 cm when completed. NOTE: All the stamping is done with the gold embossing powder.
To make the card base: Taking the A4 cardstock and score at 6 cm and at 12 cm along the long edge. Fold into valley and hill folds. This will form the card front foot (6 cm x 20.8 cm) and card front background (17.7 cm x 20.8 cm). For the slider, cut 11.5 cm x 7 cm. For the card front cut 14 cm x 17 cm. All the matting layers will be cut at 2 mm smaller each side. Cut one matting layer in each of the Lilac card stock and the design paper found in the paper pad to fit all the card base elements. Ink the edges of the design paper with walnut stain ink. Adhere all the matting layers together, except the top edge of the card front and the first matting layer. This is so you can slide the slider between the card stock layers. (If you forget to do this, don't panic. Then you make a band measuring 16.5 cm x 2 cm and adhere to the top back side of the card front. Use this for the slider guide; adhere to the back of the card front. Fixed.) Adhere the slider to the top center of the card background front. (Make sure you do not place the glue and double-sided tape too low. If you do this, the card front will not sit flat when closed. If this happens, make a slider guide for the back and place it lower in the back.) Adhere the card front to the center of the card foot. Slide the slider in to place.
Make and adhere all the embellishments to the card front by first, stamping, coloring, shaping the roses and leaves. For the heart frame, die cut x 4 and adhere together. Apply the clear drying glue to the frame top then dip the frame into the glitter. Put aside to dry. For the sentiment, cut 5 layers from the winter white card stock and cut 1 layer from the Lilac. Adhere all the layers together to form 3d chipboard letters.
Adhere all the embellishments with the clear drying glue except the roses. These are put together and adhered to the card front with the hot glue gun.
Adhere first the heart frame then arrange the leaf vines. Trimming as needed as you go. Make the placement of the roses. Slip the letters for the sentiment under the leaves and swirls as seen in the photo.
