Z Fold Card


Hello everyone. Today I am sharing with you a z fold card that I created for the JustRite Stampers latest challenge. For this challenge you are asked to create a card with "More Than One Fold".

I have seen a few versions of the z fold card, and this was a design that I prefered. To create this card I followed a tutorial posted on Sweet Designs by Cheryl. She has some written instructions and a video tutorial to follow.

The instructions are very clear. My only advice is to use repositional tape as you cut each of your patterned papers and cardstock for layering as you can easily make a mistake! I applied repositional tape and placed each piece in the correct position as I went. I was going to apply a strong adhesive but decided against it until my layout was complete for each section.

Here are some close ups of each of the panels...


Front panel....

Inside panels....



The back panel.....
There is a insert to the back panel for a special message. I stuck a flower a flower at the top of this to act as a type of tab/pull.



Supplies:

Stamps: JustRite Stampers Vintage Labels and Friendship Blooms

Ink: Distressed ink walnut stain and old paper

Paper: Pink Paislee Butterfly Garden, Stampin' Up! cardstock, DCWV neutral stack

Other: Spellbinders Nestabilities classic ovals large, floral ovals, classic squares small, scalloped squares small and labels six, Spellbinders Shapeabilities butterflies,  Die-namics fancy flourish and leafy flourish, Martha Stewart branch punch, Kaisercraft Madame Boutique die cut and paper blooms, Hooked on Craft flowers, Ruby Rock-It floral, paper doily, seam binding, liquid pearls bisque

Thanks for stopping by!
