Description:

This swap is for a Halloween themed slider MB (32 ct or approximate). Please fill it with Halloween themed goodies for your partner! If you haven't made a slider matchbox, they are pretty simple. There is a photo on my Flickr of my first one. I did not put a "topper" on mine as in the tutorial, but made my slider the same sized as my MB.

The tutorial is here

I'm not sure how a slider MB is different from a regular MB?

Moosey, I think when you pull out the drawer, a "note" ejects (slides) out the back. At least that is what I gathered from the video. The box is stunning, but after the freaking fan, I amy have to skip this until my brain is no longer mush...however...I will add that @spotteddogs said the magic word "Halloween"...so I will watch for now.

I dont like video tutorials...I dont have the patience:D I'll google and see if I can find another tutorial that will show me the trick.

And with me around your brain will be mush permanently;):P

The tutorial has both step-by-step and video. I followed the step-by-step, until it was time to attach the slider, then I thought the video was more helpful at that point. Hope you both join!!!

I just get so impatient with video-tutorials - when I have understood something I'd like to go to the next point immediately;) But I might just have to watch it as I couldnt find any other tutorial picturing it better.

Perhaps "someone" could take better pictures putting their's together? O:)

I love the concept but the execution is WAY beyond me! lol

spotteddogs 07/22/2012 #

"Someone" only did one, so wasn't sure it wouldn't even be picture worthy!!! :)

Moosecastle 07/23/2012 #

Practise makes perfect?? ;)

Paige1900 07/23/2012 #

LOL Moosey, you make me smile, even if you did flake/flack on the lunch date with me. :P

Janet - I will join...it is on my watchlist, because my dash is making me a little nervous right now.

@TerryF the "execution" is beyond me as well...BUT I will attempt it.

Moosecastle 07/23/2012 #

I'll come over there and flog you if you don't behave!! :D

TerryF 07/23/2012 #

It looks pretty darn wonderful to me, "someone"! (";)

CajunLady 07/23/2012 #

Could an already made matchbox be used then just do the other stuff to make to work?

spotteddogs 07/23/2012 #

@CajunLady - I thought about trying that as well. I think it would work fine.

@TerryF - Thanks for the compliment!!

dkay 07/26/2012 #

I think I can. I think I can.... I got it on my watch list.

snoop 08/ 6/2012 #

I think its beyond me too,but I'm going to try it if it works,I'll sign up. The video makes it look easy

What I won"t do for a Halloween swap,lol

Made my first matchbox today. Want to do more but I'm wary of the slider part

ArtsOnFire 09/ 7/2012 #

I, like Leashah, made my first matcbox today. Two of my scores were off (I don't have a score-pal, lah tee dah) and my tape securing the slider bit to the bottom of the box failed after four pulls. I remain UNDAUNTED! It is paper, I am human; I shall prevail!!!

spotteddogs 09/ 7/2012 #

Alicia - I know you are WAAAY more talented than I am, so if I can do the slider part, I know you can!!!!

AOF - I've only done two, the first one wouldn't operate unless you pulled on the box handle and the slider tag together!! I couldn't figure out what went wrong, but the next one worked great! You shall prevail!!!
