Ninja Swinging Card (IC #6)

Happy Friday!! :o)

Today I want to share with you this CAS (clean and simple), Ninja Swinging Card. :o)

This is a SWINGING CARD. I made this Interactive Card (IC) for my Celebrating 30 Days of Pisces 2019 personal challenge. If you want to find out more about it, just follow the link provided. :o)

This is a sixth type of IC I made for my challenge. I made 15 different types of interactive cards during Pisces period, which was my personal challenge. I completed my challenge, achieved my goals and had a lot of fun. I wrote a short review about the challenge here.

How I made this card...

To make this card I used a super cute Mama Elephant 'Tiny Ninjas' stamp set. LOVE!!! :o)

I colored a Ninja during Kathy's Racoosin 12th 30 Day Coloring Challenge. You can see all my coloring samples during the challenge here.

I stamped the adorable ninja on a watercolor paper and watercolored him using Distress Inks. After drying, I fussy cut the ninja and traced edges with black marker.

I stamped one more ninja on a white cardstock paper, colored ninja with black marker and fussy cut him, this time leaving white thin border around him.

I glued both images together, the watercolored ninja over the black one. I did this because the watercolor paper I use is very thin and I needed thicker image for my card.

Then I prepared a top folded card base and a white cardstock paper panel, both same size.

I cut two concentric semicircles on the panel using EK Success Circle Cutter. Then I cut lines using a kraft knife and a ruler.

I stamped a sentiment on the panel and glued a black thread on the back of the panel with self adhesive tape.

For a slider mechanism, I used die-cut circles in the white cardstock and plastic letter bead. I glued two die-cut circles together. Then I glued the bead on glued circles. I didn't use any special glue. I used UHU all purpose liquid glue.

With all parts ready, I assembled the card. I glued 3-D foams on the back of the panel, placed the slider mechanism on the card base and glued the panel on the card base. I glued ninja on the thread first and then on the slider mechanism.

Lastly, I trimmed excess of the thread and my card was finished. :o)
