How to Make a Penny Slider Card

by | Jul 9, 2015 | Copic/Alcohol Marker Beginner, Specialty Projects | 391 comments

These penny slider cards have been around for ages – and since I seem to always be a bit behind the times, it’s about time I made one, dontcha think? With inflation – mine uses dimes. HA! (Well, because they’re thinner, too!) This sweet little shark needed a wave to surf on, and a die seemed just perfect to create a wave to tumble down.

Watch the video below, or click HERE to see it in HD on YouTube!

I hope you enjoyed this little smile as much as I liked making it….when I saw the shark take its first spin it just made my lil heart happy! 🙂 Be sure to go check out the rest of the Waffle Flower release – there’s some fun stuff to be had!
