I Just wanted to share the lovely card we made at our recent class in Hailsham, which was inspired by a Ronda Wade design. It uses a very simple slider mechanism to make a really cute and original card design.  The beauty of this design is that it fits into a standard C6 envelope and as long as your decoration on the front is kept fairly flat it is a standard UK letter rate for postage.  

I have included the instructions to make the card and a picture of the reverse which helps to explain the mechanism.  The key to a successful slide is a smooth ribbon.  I used a retired Very Vanilla Satin Ribbon which worked well and went with my design.  

Hope you like it, the ladies in class certainly did.

We hope this amazing and gorgeous project from Sue has helped inspired you to recreate your own slider card like this and have a play with this fun technique.
