Z Fold Butterfly Card

A couple of night's ago was my card class. We had such fun stamping 6 awesome cards together. Here's one of the ones we made:

I got the idea from Ronda Wade and I love how it turned out. To fold the card base, you just fold in half like normal and then fold your front piece back. So simple and it makes for such a unique card!

 

Stamps: With All My Heart* (118134wood-mount/118623clear-mount)
Ink: Chocolate Chip Classic ink (100908)
Paper: Regal Rose CS (105130), Whisper White CS (100730), Chocolate Chip CS (102128), Apricot Appeal CS (105124), Welcome Neighbor Designer Series Paper Pad (118401 Sale-A-Bration)
Accessories: Beautiful Wings Embosslits Die* (118138), Scallop Trim Border Punch (118402 Sale-A-Bration), Chocolate Chip Sending Love Epoxy Brads* (117272), Snail adhesive (104332)

*Occasions Mini

This week is proving to be super busy. I had my card class; I'm preparing for my Stampin' Up! Garage Sale tomorrow and then I was asked by Stampin' Up! to demonstrate a workshop wow at the Regional Seminar next weekend so I'm busy making samples for that. I have to admit, I'm terrified to demonstrate in front of so many talented demonstrators…but, how do you say no to Stampin' Up!? lol.
