METHOD:
1. Create an 11cm x 14cm white blank. Trim yellow patterned paper to 11cm x 14cm, then fix to the blank. Trim white card to 14cm wide and die cut a grassy border edge, applying green distress inks to it. Stamp on flowers with green, then colour in.
2. Die cut a slot in the centre of the grassy border. Die cut a slider mechanism from white card, push through the slot, fold into place and trim the end to a point. Fix the holder to the reverse. Adhere the grassy border to the bottom of the card using 3D foam pads.
3. Stamp a fairy, present, house, mushrooms, flowers and banner, then colour with marker pens and cut out. Stamp the sentiment onto the banner. Fix the fairy to the left edge of the slider, then add the present. Attach the house with 3D foam pads around the top, bottom and right edges, hiding the fairy. Adhere the sentiment banner using 3D foam pads, then the mushrooms and flowers to complete.
