in the centre of the patterned paper. 

- Carefully place the second cutting plate on top of the die
so that everything is covered by the plate 
except for one end of the rectangle die.

- Run through the die-cutting machine.

3. Creating the Pop Up Section:

- Using the Mini Score Board create a score line
across the top section of the rectangle to create a fold
(section that was not cut).

- Create a score line in the centre of the rectangular piece.

Score line needs to be approximately 1/4".

- Take cardstock and slide it in behind
the rectangular shape on your patterned paper
until it meet up with the bottom of the rectangular opening.

- Add glue to the 1/4" scored section on the bottom of the card.
Lay the rectangle section flat and adhere the 1/4" section
to the bottom of the green slider piece.

- Flip over the patterned paper, with the slider piece attached,
and add double sided tape to the side
and bottom of the patterned paper.
You want to make sure that you do not add any double sided tape
to the green slider piece or it will not slide.

- Adhere onto the card base.
