craftykarendesigns: Perfectly Pencilled Z Fold Card

Hi Everyone,

For today's Z Fold card I have teamed black and white with a pop of Polished Pink to make a pretty card. I have coloured in some of the flowers with Stampin' Blends and left some in the black and white to make a contrast. I have made this card as a slightly larger than usual 5" x 7" just for a change.

1 piece of polished pink card 4 3/4" x 6 3/4", 2 pieces 2 1/4" x 6 3/4", scrap for the sentiment

1 piece of basic white 2" x 6 1/2", scrap for the sentiment

1 piece of dsp 4 1/2" x 6 1/2, 1 piece 2" x 6 1/2"

Instructions

On the long side score the black card at 2 1/2" and 5", fold and burnish into a Z Fold card.

Adhere the polished pink layers to the card.

Colour in some/or all of the flowers on the dsp as you want. I coloured in all the ones for the front piece and just a few for the inside. Adhere these layers in place.

Stamp a sentiment and some flowers on a scrap of white and then die cut with the middle sized circle die, then die cut the next larger in pink and the largest in black, layer them up together. Stamp a flower on the remaining white layer for the inside and then adhere in place.

Add dimensionals to the right hand side of the back of the sentiment circle and fix to the front of the Z fold so that it overhangs (see picture).

Add some rhinestones and the card is complete.
