Double Z-Fold Peony


Welcome my fellow paper gardeners!

Today I have created a Double Z Fold Card which Susan did on her Facebook Live - Susan's Garden Club last week.    I have chosen Susan's new Spring Flora dies Peony, Lily of the Valley and Ferns & Ivy.  You can find it here.

Here are the dimensions for cutting pieces I copied from Susan's page.


Assemble card base per Susan's instructions.  Your layers should be adhered before attaching the second Z Fold piece.

From Susan's Garden Club Specialty Paper I cut 1 Peony and 2 Buds colored with Copic Marker RV09 then shaped using Susan's Garden Club Deluxe Tool Kit (Susan's YouTube video for Peony can be found here ).  Cut leaves from green cardstock shade and shape.

Cut Lily of the Valley flowers from Susan's Specialty Paper and leaves and stems from green cardstock.  Shade and shape using Susan's Garden Club Deluxe Tool Kit.  (Susan's YouTube Video for Lily of the Susan's Garden Club new Deluxe Tool Kit ( Susan's YouTube video for Ferns & Ivy can be found here).

Once card base is completely assembled use Bearly Art Precision Glue to assemble bouquet starting with the ferns.  Once bouquet is assembled add Lady Bug.

Thanks for stopping by today I do hope it has been an inspiration.  This card fold is fun and easy to create.

Below you will find links to products I used.  If you make a purchase through any of my links I receive a small commission which helps cover cost of supplies but does not cost you any extra.  Thanking you in advance for any purchases.

Until next time - Happy Crafting!

Good Morning Everyone!  Sorry it has been so long since I have posted but I have been busy getting ready to go to Creative Keepsake Convention and then going to convention. I had a great time taking classes, shopping, eating and enjoying great friends. My post today is using one of Susan's Garden new dies and one of Karen Burniston's pop up dies.  It was hard to get a good clear picture because of the shine from the glitter. Card base is an A2 size card (4-1/4 X 5-1/2) 1.  Panel is made by using Karen Burniston's accordion rectangle die.  Attach a piece of sticker paper  4-1/2 X 5-3/4 to a pc of white cardstock the same size using clear double sided adhesive. Cut 1 frame from this.  Cut the rectangle and tabs from center of frame and the long tab on the left edge of the frame. Run this frame through Sizzix machine using Hearts Entwined embossing folder (or other embossing folder of your choice)  Peel the paper from the front of the frame ( protective paper covering adhesive

Family Birthday Cards

Welcome my crafty friends! Today I have a couple birthday cards I did for our grandson and my hubby.  Our grandson and hubby share their birthday - grandson was best birthday gift ever. Our grandson turned 18 and he loves to fish he has a boat and fishes when he is not working.  Hubby turned 79 and loves his John Deere tractor.   Cards are both 6" X 6" and I used a combination of dies and Cricut to make my cards. The pop up mechanism was same for both it was an old die set of Karen Burniston when she was with Elizabeth Craft Designs - Bathtub Pop Up.  Another time I would reshape the bathtub into a boat but I had already hand cut the boat then went looking for a die set that had a pop up mechanism to use kind of like putting the cart before the horse. KB Riley  1003  Word 2 Birthday, 1031 Numbers and 1049 Camping Charms  were used.  The fisherman, fish and the silhouette of boat and fisherman were cut on Cricut.  Hooked On Fishing was  cut from a top strip of design paper fro

  Hello my crafty friends! Another Breast Cancer Survivor card that I created in October.  Once again I used Spellbinders Susan's Garden Sunflower, Acacia and Berry Branch and for this card Spellbinders Amazing Paper Grace Lisette Oval Shadowbox Frame die set. My card base is 5" X 7" made from 100# white cardstock.  Embossed layer is 4-3/4" X 6-3/4" white cardstock.  I used a swiss dot embossing folder (it is an old 8-1/2" X 11" embossing folder - I have used it so much it is taped together now).  This piece was attached to card front using Clear Double Sided Adhesive .  Using the Lisette Oval Shadowbox Frame 2  largest dies I cut 1 from pink cardstock adhered to card front using Bearly Art Glue.   I printed sentiment on white cardstock then die cut using the next 2 dies from Lisette die set then attached to card front using dimensional tape. Susan's Garden Sunflower S4-1177 from Garden Favorites Release was cut from Susan's Specialty
