Today I have made a Z fold card, I love making these in all their variations. This one I have adapted from a card that I saw on Mixed Up Crafts and I have used the stunning Pressed Petals designer series paper and the Daisy Lane stamp set.
Materials
1 piece of merry merlot card stock 10" x 7"
2 pieces of rococco rose card stock 2 1/4" x 6 3/4", 4 pieces 2 1/4" x 2 1/4", 1 piece 2 1/4" x 1 3/4"
2 pieces of Pressed petals dsp 2" x 6 1/2", 4 pieces 2" x 2", 1 piece 2" x 1 1/2"
1 piece of whisper white 2 1/4" x 6 3/4" for the back to write your message
For the topper: 1 x 3 1/8" square merry merlot, 1 x 2 5/8" square rococco rose, 1 x 2 1/8" square dsp and 1 x 1 5/8" square whisper white
Merry merlot ink
Daisy Lane stamp set
Trimmer
Scoreboard
Layering square dies
Die cutting machine
Multipurpose adhesive
Dimensionals
Pearls
Instructions
Put the long edge of the merry merlot card stock to the top of the scoreboard and score at 2 1/2", 5" and 7 1/2". Turn to the short side and score at 2 1/2" and 4 1/2" between the first and last score lines only.
Put the card in the trimmer and cut the two lines that you have just scored at 2 1/2" and 4 1/2" to give you two long slits, horizontally across the card.
Fold along the vertical score lines at 2 1/2" to make a mountain fold and at 5" to make a valley, don't score the line that is at 7 1/2". Push the centre section out and burnish the fold (it will look like a centre step card on its side).
Adhere the dsp layers to the rococco rose layers and then adhere them all to the card base. This will leave the front centre section for the layered squares. Die cut the squares as detailed above and layer them up, then stamp a sentiment on the whisper white layer and add that to the centre with dimensionals. Decorate with a pearl at each corner of the rococco rose layer.
Adhere the whisper white layer to the back of the card to write your message.
I hope you like this card and will give it a try.
Happy crafting,
Karen XX
