Pretty Floral 2-Way Z-Fold - Landscape

I just loved this fold so much, I had to try it with the other orientation! This version also uses the Florals in Bloom DSP and Pretty Floral Bundle. I love how this version turned out, too!

Measurements:

Basic White: 1/2 sheet cut LENGTHWISE, 2 1/2" X 4" (embossed), 3 3/4" x 5" (inside), 2 pcs @ 3 1/4" square (circles), scraps
Florals in Bloom DSP: 2 1/2" x 4", 5 1/4" x 8", 3/4" x 5" (Multi print)
Old Olive: scraps

To Make This Card:

Create "Z-Fold" by folding White card base in 1/2 and then folding the front of card back so the cut edge lines up to the crease. Crease well.
Adhere 2 1/2" strip of DSP to front flap.
Fold the other piece of DSP in half. Adhere to inside of card, making sure the directional print is "right side up".
Emboss the White piece with the Pressed Flower Embossing Folder, and adhere to the "back side" of "Z".
Cut 2 circles from the largest stitched circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies. Set aside.
Stamp the "detail" of the little flower in Darling Duckling. (It stamps all 3 flowers at once.) Stamp off the "solid" stamp in Darling Duckling. Die cut from corresponding die.
Also, die cut the "stem" in Old Olive. Adhere the "calyx" to the flower "bases". Then add Dimensionals to the flowers, but attach the stems directly to one of the die cut White circles.
Stamp sentiment in Old Olive ink onto 1/2" strip of White. Cut ends diagonally. Attach to circle with Dimensionals. Then, add circle to front flap of card.
Attach the larger, White piece to inside of card. Add strip of DSP to the top.
Stamp sentiment in Old Olive ink onto final circle. Adhere to "flip up card" behind other front circle.
Finish front of card with scattered Low Profile Sparkle Dots . I also added several Low Profile Sparkle Dots to the underneath circle.
Oh, and I also added a little Wink of Stella to all the flowers.

Pretty Floral 2-Way Z-Fold

I captured this card on a Facebook Reel! I have no clue what it is called...but I LOVE it!! It's a "Z-fold" card base, with another DSP card inside that flips up! It's really fun to make, especially using the Pretty Floral Bundle and Florals in Bloom DSP! I really will have to try another one!!

Measurements:

Basic White: 1/2 sheet, 1 7/8" x 5 1/4" (embossed), 3 3/4" x 5" (inside), 2 pcs @ 3 1/4" square (circles), scraps
Florals in Bloom DSP: 1 7/8" x 5 1/4", 4" x 10 1/2" (Hyacinth print)
Garden Green: scraps

To Make This Card:

Create "Z-Fold" by folding White card base in 1/2 and then folding the front of card back so the cut edge lines up to the crease. Crease well.
Adhere 1 7/8" strip of DSP to front flap.
Fold the other piece of DSP in half. Adhere to inside of card, making sure the directional print is "right side up".
Emboss the White piece with the Pressed Flower Embossing Folder, and adhere to the "back side" of "Z".
Cut 2 circles from the largest stitched circle from the Stylish Shapes Dies. Set aside.
Stamp 2 Petunia Pop "Hyacinth's" and 1 Secret Sea "Hyacinth". Cut from corresponding die. Set aside.
Die cut 1 small and 1 large "stem" from Garden Green cardstock.
Adhere the large "stem" to one circle. Adhere one Petunia Pop flower flush to the "stem" and then adhere the Secret Sea one overlapping it slightly, with Dimensionals.
Stamp sentiment in Secret Sea ink onto 1/2" strip of White. Cut ends diagonally. Attach to circle with Dimensionals. Then, add circle to front flap of card.
Attach the larger, White piece to inside of card. Adhere the smaller "stem" and then add the final Petunia Pop card.
Stamp sentiment in Secret Sea ink onto final circle. Adhere to "flip up card" behind other front circle.
Finish front of card with bow of Linen Thread and scattered Flat Pearls. I also added several Flat Pearls to the underneath circle.
Oh, and I also added a little Wink of Stella to all the flowers.
