Z Fold Cards using Forever Fern Stamp Set and Tree Angle Stamp Set

Z Fold Card Samples using the Forever Fern and Tree Angle Stamp Sets

I am loving this fun fold card featuring a z fold. This is a great card making idea for Christmas, birthdays, or any occasion when you want a little something special. I tried it with the Forever Fern and Tree Angle stamp sets and the Forever Greenery and 'Tis the Season Stampin' Up! paper, but it would work with any stamps and patterned paper. It's such a quick and easy card design that shows off all that pretty patterned paper or scrapbooking paper you have hidden in your stash.

Before I jump into the card samples of this z fold card and the dimensions, I have a couple of Stampin' Up! reminders and announcements.

Time is running out to redeem your Bonus Days coupons. If you purchased Stampin' Up! products in July, you probably have some Bonus Days coupons sitting in your email box. Make sure to use those before August 31!
Second, the new Cut & Emboss machine will be available September 1. I don't have mine - yet - but, I've heard this die cutting machine is amazing. For the time being, only the standard size is available. You'll also be able to get replacement plates including the Specialty plate that you need to use with the new 3D embossing folders. This plate will work in the new machine and your old Big Shot and replaces the old blue plate for your die cut machine.
Finally, watch for details coming soon about a new joining promotion coming in September. If you have ever thought about joining Stampin' Up!, I would love for you to join my team whether you want to make some extra money or simply buy at a discount as a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.
