Let's Have Fun Making Sliding Page Elements

 Hello! I have a new page for you today.

I'm trying something new inspired by someone in my community.

It's a page with sliding elements. It's the first time I'm trying this and it worked so well.

It's worked so well and I LOVE IT!!


For this page I used the Pretty Little Studio - Sun Kissed collection which you can see here. 

And if you'd like to see this page coming together and see how I made this page more in depth, there's a video here. 
 


We were in Florida on this day, in the Silver Springs State Park. 

We had a trip on clear Kayaks in the Springs and it was amazing. I wanted to capture it all on this page, in my HUGE journal that I recently made.

To make the Manatee embellishments I just googled and printed. Cut them out and then went over in pencil to make them look more handmade. I love how they came out.


 


I wanted to make them move up and down on the page, so I stuck them on a strip of the paper and made some incisions in my paper that I stuck in my journal and threaded it through. Now I can move it up and down.


I wanted to make another sliding page on the other side, but this time to make more space to include extra photos and journaling.


So I created my regular page and then cut a strip of extra paper and slid it behind my photo. I added journaling to this here.


Then as you pull the strip up, there's extra photos underneath.


And I used another of the cute handmade manatees to the top : )

I also used the little mini alpha stickers here for my titles.



The papers are so much fun, I was also able to cut out lots of bits and pieces to make my own embellishments too.


I love how this page turned out and I had so much fun making it.

I hope you feel inspired today. I encourage you to give this ago.

Here's the video. 


Have fun.
