Fun Fold Friday- Ornamental Christmas Z Fold Gift Card Holder

 


Fun Fold Friday + my Demo Swap! 
It has been a while since I've made a Fun Fold Friday and so I am excited to share with you today's creation! Also, I made this card for Demo Swap. Demo Swap usually comes with a challenge and rules to follow for the card. 
Here is what the card had to have:
💙Z Fold
💙Regals Color Family
💙Use a Die
💙Holiday 
💙Ribbon (I used Baker's Twine)


The front of the card using the tree from the Ornamental Christmas stamp set and I used the Textured Notes Dies to create that stitching border. 


The card opens up to a "Z" fold to reveal the Merry Christmas message and a pocket to hold a gift card in. 
Below is a list of supplies I used to make these card. Just click on the image and it will take you to my online store.

Cherry Cobbler: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2", 4 1/4" x 9" scored @ 3" & 6"
Shaded Spruce: 2 1/2" x 4"
Basic White: (2) 2 3/4" x 4"
DSP: 4" x 5 1/4", 2 7/8" x 3

Steps

  2. Die cut one of Basic White with the Textured Notes Dies (2 1/4" x 3 3/4).  Die cut the star from Gold Foil. 
  3. Stamp with Memento Black onto the die cut Basic White the tree. 
  4. Stamp the other Basic White with Shaded Spruce the "Merry Christmas". 
  5. Use a 2" punch on the DSP 2 7/8" x 3" to create a gift card notch on the top of the 2 7/8" side. 
  6. Assemble: Glue the DSP to the Cherry Cobbler. Z Fold: Front- Glue the die cut Basic White to the Shaded Spruce matte. Use Dimensionals to attach to the front of the "Z" (score is on the right side). Middle- Use tear tape along the sides of the DSP except at the top notch spot. Attach to the middle of the Z Fold. Inside- Glue the Basic White to the final panel. Attach the whole Z fold to the DSP on the 5 1/2" x 4 1/4" of Cherry Cobbler & DSP.
