Hi, Today’s card was inspired by my good friend Carol. She and I share ideas and cards that we fall in love with over on Instagram and or Pinterest very often, and as soon as I saw the video she sent me I knew I wanted to make one. The video is in Spanish mind you but it is pretty easy to follow. Carol is a retired Spanish teacher so she had no trouble at all. LOL Let me just warn you that once you make one of these you will want to make more. I have made three so far with hopes to make more.
My card was made with The Paper Players Tic Tac Toe Board in mind. I have selected the middle row of Red, Fancy Fold, and Twine.
HERE you can see how to make this card. And below are a few photos of the inside and the side view of the sliding circle. Rest assure the Gingerbread men and houses are NOT black as they appear in the photo, Just a chocolate brown. Paper piecing the candy canes back together on the circle closer was a tad easier than some of the intricate parts of the Gingerbread men. LOL
A Few Card Details: Cardstock-Stampin Up, Candy canes and Gingerbread men dies are Impression Obsession, The sentiment inside is Stampin Up as well.
Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day! Nanc’

That slider could even be an ornament as a keepsake.

Oh my that is so clever Nancy – I’ve never seen that kind of fancy fold closure before! I am going to have to give that a try – I might even have some of those papers too! Thanks for sharing with us over at The Paper Players this week!
