Thanks for looking!
Today's card is a slider card. When you pull on the tab at the top, you get an extra surprise when the hidden tab on the bottom also slides out. How is it done? Smoke and mirrors...and if you don't believe me then you can click on the link for directions!
First, thanks for the comments on my previous post. It is an encouragement to have people say such nice things about my work, especially after taking such a lengthy break to tend to the family. I don't know yet how regular my posts will be now, since we are still settling into our new routine and our health is still...inconsistent.

Jacob was my favorite little pumpkin.
Jacob's first trip to Disneyland! He was 3 weeks old. It was fun to see the park all decorated for Halloween!
His first (and only) ride that day: the carousel! I'm pretty sure it was one of the most exhilarating moments of his life. He likes to live life on the wild side.

Over at Whimsical Scraps and Bugs, our challenge was to use song lyrics, 3 photos, and Storybook for the title (but I didn't remember that part when I was doing this LO--oops!) And, I thought we were supposed to use our Cuttlebug, but it turns out that was from a previous challenge. I think I might be losing my mind.
This page is a little different in that it's not of a 'live' character but of a ride. But, the .svg file I found of Dumbo on Mardenz' blog was just too cute not to make. The title was cut with SCAL using an altered ttf. I do not know the company of the red and white striped paper, but the other paper is from the DCWV All About Boys stack.
These pages were a lot of fun! Thanks to Mardenz for the Woody .svg file. He is very detailed so I cut him out at about 7 3/4". I wouldn't recommend anything smaller. The paper behind him is from DCWV's All About Boys stack. I cut his name from SCAL using a true-type font and colored it to mimic the lettering in the patterned paper.
Here's my most recent layout, completed for the latest Whimsical Scraps and Bugs challenge. We were supposed to use the front of a magazine cover as inspiration for our projects. I focused on having one main picture and a simple clear title.
The next picture shows a bit of the dimension on some of the stars, which I then inked with white to further define the patterns.
