Thank you Audrie for another great site. I searched for inspiration early this morning and found this photo. My first thoughts were that of a sliding puzzle. I didn't know if I would have time today to play but I thought about this card and worked on it off and on when I had the time today. I really wanted to figure out a way to make the puzzle work. But in the end I gave up. At first I wanted to totally re-arrange all of the pieces... But you really couldn't tell what it was. It wasn't pleasing to the eye either. So it the end I left it all in place except for the one piece that would need to be slid upward to finish the puzzle. I punched 9 one inch squares and temporarily aligned them into a square. I printed and fussy cut the pig's head and quickly colored him with Copics. I glued him over the one inch squares. When dried I turned it over and cut the squares back apart. They fit perfectly into the Spellbinders square with plenty of wiggle room to place my puzzle pieces with a gap around each one. I left one square out to give the look as it could move like a slider puzzle.
