DCC - Slider Card

Fellow Repeat Impressions Rock Star Christy has selected our DCC challenge for this week. Its an awesome challenge - to create a slider card.  What I like best about this challenge is that there are several different versions of a 'slider' card.  In looking at the other Rock Stars cards, it looks like everyone chose a different version of the term slider. You can see them here.

Here is my definition of a slider card. Actually, I have 2 versions of this same card.  I completed the card as seen in the photo here.  I know someone who's expecting a baby, so when I saw this adorable row of ducks, 1612-G Ducks on a String, I knew that's the image I wanted to use for my slider.  I love how the little chain of ducks slide across the card, however, it just seemed like something was missing.  The upper half of the card just needed something.  


After trying a few different ideas, I finally decided to add this little little whale tale accent to the upper left corner of the card.  


I think that's just what the card needed to balance it out.....plus now you can see how the slider moves across the card.   

Here is a close up.


So now its your chance to show us your definition of a 'slider' card - I'd love to see it.  Create your own card, link it here on the Repeat Impressions blog, and you'll be entered in a random drawing for a $25 gift certificate to the Repeat Impressions store.  That's an amazing prize!!! 

I'm also entering this card in the following challenges:
Thanks much for stopping by and I hope you'll play along
