I totally forgot I had created this card!! I'm calling it a Center Z Fold Slit Card! I've seen Z Fold Slit Cards, but I wanted this in the center! I used the Country Floral Lane DSP and the Country Bouquet stamp set to make this card...still in time for Valentine's Day! I hope to do a video soon! Stay tuned.
Measurements:
- Mossy Meadow: 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", 4 1/2" x 5 1/2" (extension)
- Basic White: 2 5/8" square, 4" x 5 1/4"
- Petal Pink: 2 3/4" square
- Country Floral Lane (N): 3 pcs @ 1 7/8" x 5 1/4", 1 pc 1 7/8" x 3 3/4"
To Make This Card:
- Begin by cutting slits in the "main" piece. Place cardstock into trimmer with the short side along the ruler @ 1 1/8". Push the blade in @ 2 1/8" and cut slit to 6 3/8". Slide piece over to opposide side and repeat. The slits are done!
- Now, to make the score lines! Turn cardstock 90 degrees, place cut edge at 2 1/8" and score from top edge to cut edge on top, and then score from bottom edge up to cut edge.
- The 2nd score line is @ 4 1/4" and you'll score the entire card!
- The last score line is @ 6 3/8". Score, again, from top edge to cut edge on top, and then score from bottom edge up to cut edge.
- Make accordion folds as shown, creating "pop out" in the center.
- However, this is not, yet, a full card! Take the remaining piece of Mossy Meadow & score along long edge at 1/4". Attach this to the cut card front with Tear n Tape, extending the card! Adhere White piece to this extension.
- Now it's time to decorate!!
- Attach one long piece of DSP to "front".
- Take one long piece and cut it into 4 - 1" pieces. You'll have 1 1/4" left over. Toss this piece. Attach the 1" pieces to the corresponding areas on the card.
- Now, attach the last long DSP piece to the next section, as shown.
- Add coordinating piece of DSP to one panel as shown.
- Next, stamp the "heart"! This is a 2-step image. I used my Stamparatus to do this! I stamped the "leaves" first, in Mint Macaron and then the "flowers" in Petal Pink. Add sentiment in Mossy Meadow.
- Now, attach this to Petal Pink layer, then add to card with Dimensionals as shown.
- Stamp inside piece, as shown, so that it is hidden behind the Center Panel.
- Fold into place, and fInish with Pastel Sequins
