My dad is such a wonderful gardener, I just know he will love these tools too. I love the detail in these tiny tools – I’ve coloured them in with Soft Suede and Gray Granite Stampin’ Blends. This Father’s Day card is a real celebration of neutrals – Early Espresso for the card base, Soft Suede for the front Z fold and the wooden shelves, Basic Black for the hooks and Mossy Meadow for the grass, with a touch of Old Olive, which is actually a Regal but in my head I always think of it as an neutral! There is also Gray Granite in the stone patterned In Good Taste DSP. This is the cutting and scoring template I made for a previous double Z fold card – my front band for this card only measures 1 inch high. I love creating “scene” cards using a double Z fold because it is such an incredible simple fancy fold to make, but it gives you a lot of “wow” factor. Double Z fold cards stand up very well if you like to display your cards. This is what it looks like when opened up and laid out flat.Īnd this is what it looks like standing up for display. This is what it the card looks like when it is folded up to fit inside an envelope. Soft Suede is a great colour for earth, so I’ve created a garden scene double Z fold card using the gorgeous Home and Garden bundle, the Plentiful Plants bundle, the Horizons dies and the soon to be retired In Good Taste DSP.
