When preparing supplies for my August 11th blog post, I put together a card base and a few layers for my metric version of that card. It helps me to do that when I write out measurements, because the metric measurements go with a completely different base cardstock size (A4 vs. Letter). Some people don’t realize that, but that is why you can’t just do a straight conversion from inches to centimeters or vise-versa.
Anyways, I decided to take those pieces and put together a cute mouse and cheese version of my Simple Slide-Out card as I was inspired by how Diana Gibbs turned that squirrel from the Nuts About Squirrels Stamp Set into a mouse in one of her recent cards. Click here to see it. (Thanks Diana for the fun idea!)
Products I used… See the bottom of my post for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store. Pictured here are a few of them.
Do you see how the squirrels became the mice? Too fun, right?

Tips
Die-cut the circles from the So Saffron layer to make the cheese. Then use temporary adhesive (I used Dotto) to attach this piece to the smaller So Saffron layer, and use the Blending Brush to add Pale Papaya Ink within the circles which will also add a bit of color to the edges of the circles on the larger layer.
After stamping the squirrels onto Basic White scraps, use the Basic Black Stampin’ Write marker to draw a curved line along the inside of the lower portion of the bushy tail to make a skinnier mouse tail. Extend the whiskers a bit, too. After coloring with the Blends Markers, trim around the critters. Leave a white edge (much easier for cutting around the whiskers) and just come closer in when cutting away the lines from the original tails.
Remove the acorn from the one critter, then cut the portion of the acorn that shows the little hand.
Make a wedge of cheese with one of the leftover little circles from die-cutting the So Saffron piece, cut into the left arm of the mouse a bit, tuck the cheese in, and add that extra hand so it peeks out from behind. (Use the Multipurpose Glue to connect these pieces together.
Peel away the die-cut layer from the smaller So Saffron layer, and prepare all the other card layers: stamp sentiments, tie on ribbon, fold on score lines.
To make the pocket for the gift card, use a thin line of glue as shown below.
Attach all the inside layers. Watch my video for tips on the card assembly.
Add LOTS of Dimensionals to the backside of the cheese layer. (I even used the Mini Dimensionals.) Then attach to the front of the card.
Create little angle-cut strips from the small length of ribbon and the narrow designer paper, and tuck under the sentiment strip. Be careful to add this assembled strip just to the die-cut layer and avoid the holes.
Then just attach that other cute little mouse.
Add a gift card, and send it to someone special for their birthday!
Even your lactose Intolerant friends will get a kick out of this card.
A big happy birthday to anyone who shares this day with me! It’s Friday, but those of us who were born on the 13th of any month aren’t bothered by that, right? Tonight my husband and boys are celebrating with me by taking me out to dinner! I do love Panera (as you can see by the gift card in the photos), but we are trying out a new place. I’m excited!

There is a stamp set that debuted in the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog called Nuts About Squirrels. And the illustrated images are super adorable. I fell in love with it right away when I opened the publication.
In fact the Simple Slide-Out Card I am sharing today was one that I made right when all my new products showed up during preorder time last month. And I’m thrilled that I’m finally able to share it with you.
I just showed live on YouTube about an hour ago step-by-step directions for creating this interactive card featuring the Nuts About Squirrels Stamp Set, the Beauty of the Earth Designer Series Paper, and the Subtle Shimmer Sequins. And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.

Welcome to our All Star Tutorial monthly blog hop for the Hand-Penned Suite!
Be ready to be immersed in this fantastic suite with all that we have to share. In addition to the suite products, you’ll also notice now that there is an addition pack of beautiful black & white designer paper now out there called Beautifully Penned. This paper coordinates well with this suite and is free with a qualifying order (in the US that amount is $50 not including shipping and tax). I didn’t use that paper in the card I’m sharing today, but I did in my exclusive tutorial project (see below for details on how you can get that tutorial bundle).
A few hours ago I shared live on YouTube step-by-step directions for how to make a Double Slider Card using the Hand-Penned Petals Stamp Set, the Penned Flowers Dies, the Hand-Penned Designer Series Paper, the Gold Metallic Specialty Paper, and the new Brushed Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots. It looks like a complicated card, but it’s done with a super simple mechanism – a loop of thin plastic! And now I’m sharing that video here in my blog post. Be sure to watch the video by clicking here (or you can just click on this image below if you are already on my blog post), scroll through the close-up photos that follow, check out the measurements & products list below, and then let me know if you have any questions.
I hope you enjoyed what I shared in this video (and the peek of the Beautifully Penned Designer Paper!). Below are measurements, close-up photos, and a product list for what I demonstrated. (Please subscribe to my YouTube channel so you can get updates when I share and go live).

I’m sharing a couple cards with you today that look a bit similar. I made the second one (the spinner card) first. And then I made this non-spinner simpler version (which I’m sharing first). This is a very easy card to make. I made multiples so I could send them to achieving team members.
Products I used… See below for a complete list of products linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Measurements
Early Espresso Cardstock
5-1/2” x 8-1/2” scored parallel to the short side at 4-1/4″
Pale Papaya Cardstock
3-3/4″ x 5″
Scrap for stamping and die-cutting sentiment piece
Calypso Coral Cardstock
3-3/4″ x 5″
Basic White Cardstock
3-5/8″ x 4-7/8″
Pear Pizzazz Cardstock
Scrap for stamping and die-cutting leaves
You’re a Peach Designer Paper
3″ x 3-5/8″
Tips
Die-cut a double leaf and two single leaves with the Give It a Whirl dies to create the look of a branch.
Attach the sentiment strip and the Calypso Coral layer with Dimensionals.
I really like the Early Espresso as the base layer on the card above and wish I would’ve done that with the spinner card (below). But this spinner card was the one I started assembling in just a couple hours time when I first got my Give It a Whirl dies…I wanted to have a quick sample of how to use the dies when I featured this die set in my box opening event with my demonstrator group the day my order arrived. It didn’t turn out bad. In fact, the card is quite cute. And I love the way the sentiments from the Sweet As a Peach stamp set fit the window so well. I guess I would just change the card base to bring in a bit more Early Espresso color. Do you agree?
The Give It a Whirl dies allow you to spin the circular layer underneath and show different things through the window. For this card I used three different sentiments in the You’re a Peach stamp set. So these next three photos show the three different views.
Measurements
Calypso Coral Cardstock
5-1/2” x 8-1/2” scored parallel to the short side at 4-1/4″
Pale Papaya Cardstock
3-3/4″ x 5-1/4″
4″ x 4″ scrap for die-cutting spinner layer
Calypso Coral Cardstock
3-3/4″ x 5″
Basic White Cardstock
4″ x 5-3/8″ for die-cutting the top layer for the spinner
Pear Pizzazz Cardstock
Scrap for stamping and die-cutting leaves
You’re a Peach Designer Paper
3-1/4″ x 4″
Tips
Attach designer paper to the white before die-cutting. Then die-cut the rectangular window.
Attach top layer of the spinner to the spinner layer with a brad.
Spin the spinner and stamp sentiments. Then add this whole layered section to the front of the card using Dimensionals in the four corners.
Die-cut a double leaf and two single leaves with the Give It a Whirl dies to create the look of a branch. (I also did this for the inside of the card (not shown).
Tomorrow at 11 AM Central Time I’m going to share a more advanced spinner card with the Give It a Whirl dies and the adorable Sharing Sunshine stamp set. Hope you can tune in to this YouTube live!
