New Baby V3 Penny Slider Border SheetCompleted by Jean-Marie Penny

Occasion
Congratulations / New Baby

I printed this onto 150gsm glossy photo paper and mounted it onto 280gsm card using a thin layer of silicone gel.

I left that to dry for about 1 hour. I cut it out and used a craft knife to cut out the white sections.

I used 8 x 1pence pieces and 4 circular double sided sticky pads for the penny sliders. I placed a sticky pad onto 4 of the pennies and placed them behind each cutout space on the card.

I then placed the other 4 pennies on top, therefore sandwiching the baby feet design.

I then used extra sticky DST to attach the 4 mini pictures onto the top pennies. I placed 2 layers of 2mm shaker tape (making it 4mm deep) to the back of the design, close to the edges, so as not to stop the pennies from moving, and around the centre to keep it level.

I then mounted the whole thing onto an A5 card.

A lovely card to welcome a new born.
