Irresistible Z Fold Card

I saw a version of this card and loved the combination of the gorgeous Hello Irresisible DSP with the Brilliant Wings Butterflies Dies! And, then it is paired with a stunning, simple "Z" Fold!  Isn't it just gorgeous!


Measurements:  

  • Basic White: 4" X 5 1/4", scraps
  • Petal Pink: scraps
  • Hello IrresistIble DSP (N): 5 1/4" x 5 5/8" (border), 2" x 5 1/4" (solid)
To Make This Card:

  • Fold the White base in half, then fold the front back on itself, creating a "Z" Fold! Crease well.
  • Take the "border" piece and cut into 3 equal pieces @ 1 7/8" each with the flowers along the bottom.
  • Adhere the 3 "border" pieces, in order, on the first 3 "panels".  Then, add the "solid" piece to the end, leaving an 1/8" border.
  • Next, die cut 2 White and 1 Pink Butterflies.
  • Also Cut 2 small "banners" from the Stylish Shapes Dies. Trim left side so that one banner measures 1 7/8" and the other measures 2".
  • Stamp sentiments in Basic Gray near the right end of the "banner". I used the now, retired SAB Beautifully Happy stamp set.  They just fit!
  • Add the longer one to the "solid" panel with Mini Dimensionals.  Add the shorter one to the 3rd panel as shown.
  • Next add "butterflies" to "solid" panel.  Shape the "wings" a bit and add one White butterfly just above the sentiment, one White butterfly near the top, and then center the Petal Pink butterfly in between!
  • Finish with scattered Brass Butterflies and Pink Loose Frosted Dots!

Glitter Butterfly Side Pull-Out Card

I've had requests to do this card fold in a class, so we will be doing this card, next week, in my Set of the Month Class using the Butterfly Brilliance Bundle!


Measurements:  

  • Bermuda Bay: 1/2 sheet
  • Basic White: 5 1/4" x 8", 3" square
  • Ornate Garden DSP: A - 4" x 5 1/4", B - 2" x 5 1/4", 1/2" strips
  • Gold Foil: 3" square
To Make This Card 
  • Fold Bermuda Bay card base in half. Attach Ornate Garden DSP quarter to front along outside edges only.
  • Cut largest scallop circle through both layers on front of card.  Discard DSP piece, and set Bermuda Bay piece aside to use later.  
  • Fold Basic White card in half, and then again in half, back on itself, creating a "Z" fold. Crease well. Flip over so the "Z" is on the right, and adhere "base" to inside of Bermuda Bay card. Attach DSP strip to outside (or inside) narrow panel.
  • Close card.  Place adhesive on part of the "z" fold that is showing through the circle. Take the scallop circle that you removed from the front and adhere through the opening, lining up the scallops. Add a Gold Foil scallop circle cut from the next size scallop circle.
  • Cut out White Circle.  Set aside.
  • Cut "detail" butterfly from Rainbow Glimmer Paper in area of your choice. Shape wings a little, and attach to White Circle with rolled Mini Glue Dotes.  Attach to scalloped circles on front of card.
  • Attach 1/2" strips of DSP to inside of card, if desired.
  • Finish with Embellishment of your choice on the center circle!
