Hey everyone! Thanks for stopping by today. Today, I'm going to be creating a card with the Lawn Fawn Magic Color Slider die. This die is such a fun and easy way to create a DIY interactive card. I love interactive cards!
The Magic Color Slider die set has a lot of pieces, and it might seem a little overwhelming when you first look at them. But I'm going to show you exactly how to use all of these pieces in the video tutorial below. Be sure to check that out.
Once assembled, you're left with a tabbed piece that slides up, revealing a colorful image behind. It really is magical. I've chosen to have my slider reveal a colorful image beneath, but you could try a lot of variations on this. Maybe instead of just color underneath, a whole new scene is revealed. There are lots of possibilities for this die. It's got my wheels turning!
also love this die set because there are several pieces that can be used on other cards as well. The stitched pieces used to cut the window on the Magic Color Slider are great accents for any card. There is also a hello sentiment and a fun banner. These are dies that you can use on so many card projects!
Beneath my slider, I've used my Zig Art & Graphic Twin markers to color my scene on to some Bristol Smooth card stock. This paper is perfect for blending water based markers like the Zigs. I was able to create seamless blends with very little effort. Just remember, using the right paper for the markers you're using is KEY! While the Bristol isn't ideal for Copic coloring, it works like a dream when using these Zig markers.
I finished my card off with a few finishing touches. I added a few black enamel dots to bring in more of the black that is found in my stamped image and in the patterned paper I adhered beneath my heat embossed sentiment. I also added a bit of twine to the top of the slider portion of my card. Look ma! No glitter, no sequins, no gold! Can you even believe it?
Here's a look at the card as it slides up to reveal the colored scene beneath. Such a cool card!
As I said earlier, I'll be walking you through this in the video tutorial below, so be sure to check it out. I've also included links to all the projects used in this project below. I've even listed the marker colors I used individually. :)
Thanks for stopping by today. I hope you've enjoyed this look at the Lawn Fawn Magic Color Slider Die Set. It's a new favorite of mine for sure! Until next time, I hope you have a fabulous day!
