For today’s card, I wanted to show off the new, online exclusive, Delightful Floral Designer Paper, and the Double Z Fun Fold design would do the trick!
First, I cut a piece of 8 1/2″ X 11″ Thick Basic White Cardstock in half, 4 1/4″ X 11″, and scored it at 2 3/4″ and 5 1/2″. You can use the other half to make a second card.
Two of the panels were decorated with Delightful Floral Designer Paper; 2 5/8″ X 4 1/8″ for the smaller panel, and 5 3/8″ X 4 1/8″ for the larger panel.
Delightful Floral Fun Fold
After gluing the panels, I cut a band for the bottom from Thick Basic White Cardstock, 11″ X 1 1/4,” scored at 5 1/2″ and 2 3/4″. The band was decorated with three strips of Delightful Floral Designer Paper. The long strip is 5 3/8″ X 1 1/8″, and the two shorter strips are 2 5/8″ X 1 1/8″.
Next, I fussy cut flowers from the Delightful Floral DSP to decorate the front panel. And, I added three Tinsel Gems for a touch of sparkle.
The trickiest part of the Double-Z Fun Fold is fastening the band. It seems odd, but the long section of the band is glued to the short front section. I find it easiest to apply glue to the folded band, because this exposes only the part that should have glue. Then, fold the card while adhering the band in place. I suggest having a “dry” run before applying glue.
“Happy Birthday” and “Wishing you all the happiness in the world,” are from the Translucent Florals Stamp Set. I stamped the sentiments in Blackberry Bliss Ink on a solid piece of Delightful Floral DSP, and used Something Fancy Dies for cutting.
The Double Z Fun Fold card, with this amount of decoration, fits nicely inside our Medium Envelopes.
