Fly away with Mary Poppins/video

 Fly away with Mary Poppins

Actually in my card Mary Poppins is sliding away on my ribbon slider card.

stamps/supplies:  MFP saying Up, up..., Sizzix TH The Park die set

I'm call this character Mary Poppins but, I guess, legally you can't name these dies because she is licensed by Disney.  The die set is called The Park but she does make you think of Mary Poppins.  Anyways I made an old favorite moving card that is a Ribbon Slider card.  

Instructions:

 1.  Make any size card that works for you with a layer for the sliding character.

2. Cut 2 parallel lines 1/4" to 1/2" apart for the moving mechanism on the layer that will have the character. Make
the length of cut to accommodate your card.
3. Cut ribbon twice the size of your card. Cut strip of cardstock to wrap,
and tape ribbon that will slide back & forth on your card.  The ribbon gets tape to the sliding strip only. Make 2
more strip wraps, and tape each one on ends of parallel lines with ribbon
threaded through but do not tape ribbon to strips. These will be end
stoppers.

4. Tape cardstock with sliding mechanism that you stamped scene to base
card.  On this card I cut out a cloud template to create the background.
5. Use mounting tape to attach your image on movable strip which will go
around parallel lines. 
6. Pull your ribbon and see what happens!
Here's a short video I did a few years ago showing how the ribbon slider works.
Another basic card with same The Park die set.

Thanks for stopping by.  Come back again soon.
