1

Stamp ‘LOVE’ at the bottom of a white stitched dot square and colour using markers. Layer onto a slightly larger pink square then onto a 9cm square of white cardstock. Stamp a hippo onto white cardstock, colour using markers and cut out. Attach using 3D foam pads.

2

Layer a 13.5cm square of stripy paper onto a 14cm square of pink cardstock and turn over. Place the sliding element into the centre of the panel, mark with a pencil at the bottom of the element and mark 0.5cm in from each end of the top side of the element.

3

Remove the sliding element and draw lines from the lower edge pencil mark up to the marks at each side, stopping 1.5cm from the top of the panel. Cut along the lines then erase any pencil marks.

4

Cut a 1.5x11cm piece of acetate. Attach with tape to the reverse of the sliding panel so it is near the bottom, ensuring the tape is just over 0.5cm from each side of the panel. Turn the panel back over and slot the sides of the acetate into the slits. Use masking tape to hold the element in place temporarily.

5

Turn the panel over and place double-sided tape, with the adhesive facing upwards, under the acetate, right up to the sides of the sliding element. Press the acetate onto the tape to secure.

6

Cut a 9x12cm piece of white cardstock and write ‘pull here!’ across the top. Turn the tab over and lay it centrally onto the panel so it will be held in place with the double-sided tape. Trim any acetate visible at each side. Attach 3D foam pads around the edges ensuring it is near the slits but not touching them.

7

Attach the panel to a 14.5cm square white card blank. Remove the tape and slide the panel upwards. Stamp the other sentiment at the bottom of a white square. Stamp a hippo over the sentiment and colour using markers. Attach to the card blank inside the slits to finish.
