This is a Z slider card measuring 21 cm x 17.5 cm when finished. Please ~Note all the stamping is done in gold embossing powder.

###Click HERE to see the roses being made.

To make the card base: 

Taking the A4 cardstock and score at 6 cm and at 12 cm along the long edge. Fold into valley and hill folds. 

# This will form the card front foot (6 cm x 20.8 cm) and card front background (17.7 cm x 20.8 cm).

# For the slider, cut 11.5 cm x 7 cm. For the card front cut 14 cm x 17 cm. All the matting layers will be cut at 2 mm smaller each side. 

# Cut one matting layer in each of the red card stock and the design paper found in the paper pad to fit all the card base elements. Ink the edges of the design paper with walnut stain ink. 

# Adhere all the matting layers together, except the top edge of the card front and the first matting layer. This is so you can slide the slider between the card stock layers. If you forget to do this, don't panic. Then you make a band measuring16.5 cm x 2 cm and adhere to the top back side of the card front. Use this for the slider guide 

# Adhere the slider to the top center of the card background front. ( Make sure you do not place the glue and double-sided tape too low. If you do this, the card front will not sit flat when closed. If this happens, make a slider guide for the back and place it lower in the back. ) Adhere the card front to the center of the card foot. Slide the slider in to place. 

Stamp, color and shape the roses, leaves. Arrange and trim the leaf vines as needed for a base for the roses. These are adhered by using the clear drying glue, this is so they can be slide into place. 4 rose cuts are used to make each rose. 3 cuts for the fuller rose buds. 1 cut for each of the small rose buds. The sentiment is cut x 5 from the winter white card stock and the layers adhered with the clear drying glue. The roses are adhered together with the hot glue gun. The hot glue gun is also used to adhere the roses to the card front.
