Z Fold Pop Up Block Card with Gerber Daisy


Hello my crafty friends!

Finally I am back creating cards.  I have missed it but it gets kind of crazy November, December and January.

Susan Tierney-Cockburn did a Z Fold Pop Up Block card last week on her Garden Club 2 "Live" so I decided I would try it - it is fun and easy to create.

My closed card is 6" X 6".  I have used Spellbinders Susan's Garden Gerber Daisy S5-531 from Painters Garden Collection, Ginkgo from Victorian Foliage set Victorian Garden Collection and Ladder Fern from Ferns & Ivy Spring Flora Collection.  The paper is a P13 paper Hello Summer Collection.



Cut white 100# cardstock score at 2-1/2" and 5"  mountain then valley fold
Pattern Paper cut 1 pc cut 2-1/4" X 5-3/4" and 1 pc 5-3/4" square adhered to card base using Clear Double Sided Adhesive.  1 piece of white cardstock was cut 2" x 5-1/2" and embossed.  I used Spellbinders E3D-052  3D Raindrop embossing folder.  Adhered that piece to first section of card base.

Blocks
Block #1  "6 X 5" at 2", 3-1/2" and 5-1/2" 
Block #2  5" X 4" score at 1-1/2", 3", 4-1/2"
Block #3  4" X 3" score at 1", 2-1/2", 3-1/2"
On blocks always score on longest side and they are all mountain folds.
On Susan's video she had a couple scoring areas so I have given you the correct scoring for blocks.  Here is the link where you can follow along to complete card base here

From Spellbinders Susan's Garden Specialty Paper I cut 1 Gerber Daisy and from watercolor paper I cut 2 Ginkgo and 3 Ladder Ferns along with the Gerber Daisy leaves.  They were colored with alcohol markers and Susan's Deluxe Tool Kit was used to shape all.  Here are links to YouTube videos for creating these components.

I added sentiment at bottom of card on 6" X 6" side.

Thanks for stopping by and I sure hope that you have been inspired to make a Z Fold Pop Up Block Card it really is easy and fun.

Please check back often I have 4 or 5 more completed cards to post - this coming week I will start posting cards from Spellbinders Susan's Garden latest release.

Until next time - Happy Creating!

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
