Sometimes I have to keep my holiday cards a secret . . . at least until after Christmas if they contain a Stampin’ Up! gift certificate from a customer’s husband! Sweet guy, no? Now that the holiday has passed, I can share the pix and details!
I began this Z-Fold Card with a 5 1/2″ x 12 piece of card stock. Stampin’ Up! Very Vanilla comes in 12 x 12. Perfect!
Score the short distance of the card stock with a Stampin’ Up! Simply Scored Scoring Tool at 2″, 4″ 8″ and 10″. The Festival of Prints Designer Series Paper for the left and right panels was cut to 1 3/4″ x 5 1/4″ and the center to 3 3/4″ x 5 1/4″. Here’s a helpful video based on a mini Z-Fold Card but is a good visual.
Merry Mini Punches and the Window Frames Framelits Dies from the Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog really put the pizzazz in the sentiment. I used the Festive Paper Piercing Pack that coordinates with the Window Frames Dies. Could any technique with this much WOW! be easier?
