Good Morning Everyone
Happy Friday!
Today I'm sharing a Fun Fold Card with you! I absolutely love creating Fun Folds but they can look like they are tricky to create and some can be, but today I'm doing a basic and simple Z fold which should be a fold in every cardmaker's arsenal.
The Delightfully Eclectic DSP has this gorgeous floral print, which i think works well with the Petal Park stamp set.

-----------------------------------------------------
Take the larger piece of Garden Green card stock and fold along the score line to create your card base. hold the card in front of you with the fold to the left. Take the open edge of the card front and fold back on itself so that it meets the fold line. This just makes it easier to get even panels, if you try to score its hard to be exact due to small increments.
Open the card stock out and add the three DSP panels like this..
Add the thin strip of DSP to the edge of the Basic White panel and then add it to the back of the card for somewhere to write a personal message.
Ink up the leaf image outline in Garden Green and stamp into the centre of one of the remaining pieces of Basic White, stamping the solid in fill stamp in 2nd Generation (stamped off once) Garden Green ink. Layer this to a Garden Green Mat.
Now, stamp the sentiments from Charming Sentiments in Garden Green into the centre of the other piece of Basic White. Take the floral cluster outline and stamp one cluster in the top left and bottom right using Fresh Freesia. Add the infill with 2nd Generation Fresh Freesia, then using your Cajun Craze Stampin Blend, add a little colour to the flower centre. I did this to try replicate the colouring of the flowers on the DSP.
On a scrap of basic white stamp the cluster again using the steps above. Cut out using the Petal Park Builder Punch. Add these with dimensionals to the leaves panel.
Add adhesive to the back of the sentiment panel and glue this down into the centre of the DSP back panel. Then close the card up and stick down the flower panel so it sits directly above the sentiment piece. Place glue to only the section that sits on the thin top panel, otherwise you will stick your card shut.
