Best Dressed Handbag Z Fold Handmade Birthday Card

Good morning everyone,

I hope you are all well? Dave is now working full time from home, because it makes no difference, it can all be done on the laptop, he might as well stay here. This has kinda put a dampener on my crafting though as I've had to give up my craft table!! But I do have a few projects ready to show, and I will get a smaller  amount of crafting time on an evening.

Today I have this lovely Z fold card decorated with gorgeous handbags from the Best Dressed DSP!!



Measurements

Gorgeous Grape Cardstock
1pc - 4 1/8" x 10 3/4", scored at 2 1/8" & 5"
1pc - 2 1/2" x 3 1/2"
1pc - 1 1/8" x 2 1/8"

Purple Posy Cardstock
1pc - 3 3/8" x 2 3/8"

Whisper White Cardstock
1pc - 1" x 2"
1pc - 4" x 2 3 /8"

Best Dressed DSP
2pc - 2" x 4"
2pc - 2 3/4" x 4"
1pc - 4" x 3 1/4"
Several fussy cut handbags, I used 10.

Take your piece of Gorgeous Grape Cardstock and fold along the 5" score line towards the right, just like you would a normal card, then fold on the 2 1/8" bavk on itself towards the left so the cardstock is now like a zig zag.

Add the largest piece of DSP to the inside on the card, edging it up towards the right hand side, then add the piece of whisper white that measures 4" x 2 3/8" and butt this up against the best dressed DSP to create a panel to write on. Next add DSP to the remaining two panels to the left then add the two panels to the reverse of these sections.



Above is what one side should look like, and the two panels to the left should have DSP on the back too.

Layer up the largest gorgeous grap, purple posy and remaining DSP. Place adhesive to the bavk of the left hand side ONLY. Then close the card and adhere to the left hand panel, making sure all of the adhesive sits on the panel beneath, if you go over then the card will get stuck together and you won't be able open it!

Stamp the sentiment onto the 1" x 2" then layer it into the corresponding mat and add to the top corner of that panel. Then decorate with the fussy cut handbags.
