Inked Botanicals Diagonal Z-fold card; with a free printable project sheet!


Each month at my local Card Clubs we make at least one fun fold card.  Here's the  pretty card we made in August: 

It's called a Diagonal Z-fold card.  You might think it looks a bit intimidating but it's really not.  I shared how to make it in a recent video seen here.  Plus I have a free project sheet for you as well!  Download Diagonal Z-fold card

I textured the Lost Lagoon layer with either the 3D Basics folders or the Painted Texture 3D folder.  

My colors include Lost Lagoon, Pretty Peacock and White with a bit of Vellum added with the die-cut leaf (Gorgeously Made dies).  The other sprig and leaf are from the Bough punch (temporarily out of stock). 

Below is the template I made.  You start out with an 8 1/2" X 11" sheet of card stock.  Make a mark at 3" down from the upper right and 3" up from the lower left.  Cut in half on the diagonal.  

Then place the flat side of the card stock on your paper trimmer or scoring board and score at 4 1/4" and 8".  That's it!  

To create the diagonal layers for each area you start with full rectangles like a normal card and cut off the upper portion at an angle. Measurements are given in the project sheet above.  

I've used the Inked & Tiled stamp set a lot; I love the images and the greetings fit in the Double Oval punch perfectly! 

The designer paper is the Inked Botanicals seen here.

  • Notes of Spring tutorial is available!


    Each month I collaborate with other Demonstrators to create a Product of the Month (POM) tutorial. Everyone who purchases the POM from me will receive it free!
    How it works: you can redeem any of the Product of the Month items for just $5 once your order reaches the $75 mark.

    Here’s a peek of the 12 projects in this tutorial:

    The March POM is the Notes of Spring stamp set seen here. It’s a 2-step stamp set that includes greeting images too!

    I’ve sent this tutorial to each of my customers now, but the offer never ends! If you order it and the set is available, I’ll send it to you.

    There is one other POM available – the Painted Illusions DSP seen here.

    These items are available while supplies last; once they’re gone they will not return. So get them while you can!

    Starting April 1st we’ll have a new POM to choose from; the Eyelet Bloom dies.

    Its intricate pattern creates a full background that fills large areas beautifully for a polished, handcrafted look in one easy cut.

  • Neat Fun Fold card with video & free project sheet


    I shared this neat fun fold card on last week’s video. It is the standard size card but shows off your designer paper so nicely.

    The 11″ X 4 1/4″ piece of card stock has an extra score line on the front left. This gives you a spot for a DSP strip and to adhere a 4 1/4″ piece of DSP under that flap. It opens fully because the DSP is only attached to the scored flap. So cool!
    My colors include Misty Moonlight, Strawberry Slush & Crushed Curry; taken from the designer series paper. The little butterflies dies are from the Cutest Crew dies. That greeting is from the Springtime Scenes dies.

    I used the new Homemade Sweetness DSP here with the greeting from the Cutest Crew stamp set. The checked Misty Moonlight ribbon is in the suite with the Homemade Sweetness DSP. There is also a stamp & dies bundle and gems. Here’s a link to the DSP:

    I did create a free project sheet for this card so you can make this fun fold too. Click here to access it.

    Below is the video tutorial for this sweet card; I hope you watch it.

  • Cutest Crew card swap


    Here’s the card I made for our latest Team card swap. What do you think of the color combo?

    As you can see, I used the Cutest Crew bundle here. I’m a cat owner so I chose the cats. My colors include Crushed Curry, Smoky Slate, White and Basic Gray.

    This adorable bundle is in our Online store and was available last week but now the dies are out of stock again. I have a feeling this is how it will be for awhile. We all love our pets! You can see the Cutest Crew bundle here or the stamp set alone here. *Be sure to add your email to the product page so you get notified when it’s back in stock.

    The largest card base is Crushed Curry and the next layer is Smoky Slate which is the part that opens.

    I colored in the images with Blends markers. It was fun to color them in cat like patterns.

    Thanks for stopping in today! I hope you like my cards.
