Mount this piece onto the card base. Punch a 1/8” hole in the top center of the slider piece and thread your ribbon through. *pulling on the ribbon should make the slider open.

3.     Stamp all the images onto a piece of Solar White cardstock using Memento Black Tuxedo ink. Color the images with the Copic markers. Cut the images out using the matching dies. Cut out a hillside using blue cardstock and a hillside die. * I used the set from Lawn Fawn.
