CTMH Holiday Express Red Christmas Train

Hello friends!  How is everyone?  It has cooled down quite a bit in Southern CA; just in time to start getting warmer again tomorrow and the remainder of the week.  I hope you have time to do something fun.

If you are like me, you are trying to finish creating your Christmas cards.  I thought I had enough left over from last year; but once I made my list; I realized I needed more cards.  I really wanted to create a train slider card for my great grandkids; but I wasn't sure if I could do it or not.  

I bought this adorable CTMH Holiday Express Stamp & Thin Cuts last year, I think.  Time flies; so it could have been longer.  I bought it just for my great grandkids; but I wasn't planning on a slider when I bought it.  Lol!  I was thinking something much simpler.  I am glad I tried it.  This one turned out perfect; but my second one, blue train, does not slide as well.  I am keeping it for me.  Lol!  It is strange; because I made the same way.  

I am so grateful to Jessica for her awesome video; which you can find at YouTube Holiday Express Christmas Train Card.  I could not have created this card without her video.
