Tidings & Trimming Wonderful Time of the Year Double Z Fold Christmas Card. Share it on a Sunday

 Good Morning Everyone,

Happy Sunday folk. We are creating  Christmas in September today with our Share it on a Sunday series.

I have made the lovely, and pretty easy Double Z  Fold card and decorated it with the Tidings of Christmas Bundle. I like this style because it's not really fussy with the decoration but it's a really special card to give. I used lots of different patterns on this mainly because I dipped into my scraps but you could do whatever you prefer.

---------------------------------------

Fold and burnish both pieces of Sahara card stock, making sure you create a Z shape ( fold in half and then back on itself).

Now add all the DSP  and white card to the bases. Put the basic white onto the back of the card, and then you will find that all the rest just fit in one place so it's pretty easy to find their homes. Stamp the sentiment onto the smallest piece of Basic White adn alyer onto the Cherry Cobbler card stock, adding this piece to the larger panel on the smaller piece of card stock

Adhere the smaller z fold to the larger one, the larger piece has the bigger back panel to the right, the smaller piece leads with the larger panel. Add liquid glue to the back of the smallest panel on the small z fold piece and adhere to the centre of the larger back panel.

Now, fold all the pieces down, don't worry some to the edges will overlap - then add adhesive to the front piece of the smaller z, making sure you only add adhesive to the section that will be stuck to the other piece, otherwise you will just make a mess and stick it all closed!!

Finally Stamp a stocking and a star and cut using the coordinating dies or if you dont have them, they are a simple enough shape to fussy cut. Add these aroudn the sentiment.

I hope you enjoyed my card today, pleaee take a look at what Donna and Karen have also created for this week's Share it on a Sunday
