Hello and welcome to my blog,
Today I’m sharing another simple Z fold card featuring Back On Your Feet and Forever Fern by Stampin’ Up! – it’s my entry for Global Design Project #297 Color Challenge.
I love this week’s color combination of Fresh Freesia, Blackberry Bliss and Pear Pizzazz – it’s right up my street as I’m a purple girl! As usual the GDP Design Team have created lots of gorgeous projects to inspire us so head over to their.
I recently added the Back On Your Feet stamp set to my craft stash, even though it’s been on my wish list for a while! The critters are so cute and for my card today I used the turtle – the expression on it’s face just makes me smile.
My last post also featuring these stamp sets and the same z fold – below you can see why it’s called a z fold!

Tools:
Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, Tasteful Labels Dies, Blending Brushes, Bone Folder; Take Your Pick Tool, Multipurpose Glue, Dimensionals
Instructions –
Cut and score the card base. Stamp the foliage from Forever Fern around the edges two of the Basic White layers using Pear Pizazz and soften the edges by applying ink with blending brushes. Add to the base and stamp sentiment in Blackberry Bliss on the larger piece. Stamp the turtle on another piece of Basic White in Memento, colour with Stampin’ Blends and die cut with one of the Tasteful Labels dies. Flip over the die with the label still inside and trace around the inside edge with the scoring attachment on the Take Your Pick Tool to add extra dimension. Emboss the smaller layer of Fresh Freesia in the Hammered Metal 3D embossing folder and add ink with another Blending Brush. Before adding to the larger layer with dimensionals wrap ribbon around and tie a bow. Add the label with dimensionals and glue to card base, being careful to add glue only to the left hand side of the panel. Add some in-color jewels to finish it off.
Watch the video below to see how easy it is to make this card. I even show you what to do if you glue a panel on slightly skewiff lol.
