I have made this card specially for the Artful Crafting Challenge #8 : Water Colours (missed all the previous ones due to my laziness :/ )
It's a Magic Slider Card and it goes something like this:
Made a card base for 5*7 inch card, then cut a piece of watercolour paper & Acetate sheet a slightly smaller size. got a butterfly & floral motif for my card (those old embroidery books are a treat since i don't embroidery that much now )
Copied the image on my watercolour paper, coloured it using regular watercolours. added a cubism background.
using double sided tape, I taped the acetate sheet & paper together, then added clips on each side so that it stays on top firmly. then traced the motif on acetate using a permanent marker. so it looked something like the above picture.
added a rivet to tie ribbon.
Inserted both the panels, covered the base with black craft paper. added yellow brads to ensure the slider only slides and doesn't come out :) added sentiments, some handmade flowers and a die-cut butterfly to complete the look.
this is how the card looks when pulled out:
Hope you like my work!
PS: I should really post more often, I am finding it quite enjoyable :D
