Spotlight on Nature unique Z-fold card with video & free project sheet

I shared this unique & easy fun fold card on last week's Live video.  

Spotlight on Nature club cards Save

It doesn't look like a fun fold card does it?  I featured it at my May Card Clubs.  I love the way the detailed die is popped up on Dimensionals which shows off the die-cut pattern. There's a simply trick to stamp over the die-cut after you cut out the die shape; watch the video to learn how. 

It features three new In Colors and the Spotlight on Nature bundle. The colors include Pretty in Pink, Shy Shamrock & Peach Pie. I colored in the butterfly & flowers with Pretty in Pink & Peach Pie blends.  Want to know how to do this?  Watch the video here or below. I love combining two colors like this!

The Spotlight on Nature bundle is out of stock right now but will be back in a few weeks. It is discounted an extra 10% in June too! See it here.  

SPOTLIGHT ON NATURE BUNDLE Save

I'm calling it a Z-fold because the inside White layer is folded like a 'Z'. It connects the card front and the card base & opens like this:

  • LOTS of beautiful Flowering Zinnias card swaps by my Team!

    I'm continuing to share our March card swaps made by my Flowerbug's.  Our theme was Online Exclusives and many of us chose the Flowering Zinnias and the Simply Zinnia bundle for our cards. 

    *Currently the Flowering Zinnias Suite and bundle are unavailable.  The Simply Zinnias stamp set is out of stock and expected back in around March 25th.  The Shiny Sequins are also out of stock but expected back in April. 

    ~~~

    First is a pretty card made by Karen G.  

    March Karen G Flowering Zinnias Save

    She showed off the beautiful Flowering Zinnias designer paper AND the Berry Burst & Old Olive glimmer paper seen here.  It also includes a sheet of White in the pack.  This designer paper pack includes two sheets of paper perfect for an easy card front. 

    The greeting is from the Simply Zinnia stamp set. Her colors include Flirty Flamingo, Old Olive and White.

    Next is a fun fold card made by Karen A. 

    March Karen Flowering Zinnias Save

    She tore the Flowering Zinnias designer paper into strips and added to her card front.  What a great layering technique! She used Black, Petal Pink and Lemon Lime Twist here.  It's actually a special fun fold that twists!

    March Karen Flowering Zinnia Save

    This is one of those cards you have to see in person or on a video; it's very cool! 

    Measurements:

    • Black card base 11" X 4 1/4" score at 5 1/2".  Then make a mark on one side at 4 1/4" and score diagonally to that line.  You'll fold the card on that diagonal back to the top and add the Green layer to it. 
    • Lemon Lime Twist 4" square
    • Petal Pink 3 3/4" & 1" X 4"
    • DSP strips measure 3 1/2" across.  The vertical strip on the side is 3/4" X 3 3/4"

    Next is a neat card made by Rita. 

    March Rita Flowering Zinnias Save

    She used the Flowering Zinnias designer paper and a window sheet layer to create a peek-a-boo card. The sentiment is from Forever Fern (now retired) stamped on a Hexagon punched piece. The flowers are fussy cut from the designer paper. 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 4 1/4" X 7 1/2" score at 5 1/2"
    • DSP – 4 pieces at 4 1/4" X 2"

    I love seeing what my gals make! Many times I'm reminded of neat card folds, layouts or techniques. 

    Next is a pretty card made by Ginny who focused on the Simply Zinnias stamp set. 

    March Ginny Simply Zinnias Save

    She used Blends markers to color the pretty zinnia image.  Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight & Pumpkin Pie are her cardstock & Blends colors.  She popped up the top two layers on Dimensionals; what a difference this makes! 

    I'll share more team swaps next week!

  • Beautiful Online Exclusive card swaps

    We held our monthly Team Gathering and our swap theme was to feature Online Exclusive products.  Honestly our current line of OE products is amazing. Did you know there are over 90 items?  Be sure to check them out here.  

    Joan made this first one with the In My Heart stamp set seen here. 

    March Joan Save

    Her coloring is amazing! I believe she used Blends markers for the scene. She used two sizes of the Deckled Circles and her background is made with the Foursquare decorative masks seen here. She used a Blending Brush with Orchid Oasis ink to create that gorgeous, striking background. Her colors are Orchid Oasis & Sweet Sorbet – both of these In Colors are retiring in early April! 

    Here's how she finished the inside:

    Next is a stunning card made by Tracey. She chose the Courage & Faith stamp set in the Annual catalog; see it here.

    March Tracey Meandering Meadow Save

    I just love how this layout shows off the pretty Meandering Meadows designer paper! 

    Measurements: Each of the designer paper pieces are 2 1/2" X 1 1/4". This allows you to make two cards with each 6 X 6" piece of DSP.  The greeting is stamped on a the Scalloped Contours diecut seen here.  

    Next is a wonderful card perfect for either guys or gals. It features the Trucking Along bundle seen here. 

    March Candy Trucking along Save

    I love the stamped and textured background! She also used the Deckled Circles (in low inventory) and the Basics 3D embossing folders – both can be seen in our Online Exclusive line here.    The greeting die-cut is from the Perennial Postage dies

    Stay tuned for more swaps tomorrow!
