Z-Fold Butterfly

I've never done a lot of fancy fold cards.  But lately, I've been doing some Z-fold cards.  


And the inside.  Sorry for the blurry photo.  Hope you can get the idea though.


In case you haven't done these... I cut the cardstock at 4 1/2" and scored at 5 1/2".  Then I scored the front piece at 2 3/4" and folded it back.

I saw where someone had done a butterfly like this last week.  I'm sorry that I can't remember who did it.  Let me know so I can link back to your blog.

All supplies are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted

Card Recipe
Stamps:  Petite Pairs, Papillon Potpourri
Ink:  Raspberry Ripple, Gumball Green
Paper:  Whisper White, Gumball Green, Print Poetry DSP Pad
Other:  Elegant Butterfly Punch, Bitty Butterfly Punch, Vintage Wallpaper EF, Square Lattice EF, Raspberry Ripple Ribbon, Basic Pearls

I'm so glad you could take the time to stop by.

Enjoy!

    Very pretty butterflies-I really like that stamp set. Haven't made a z-fold card for absolutely ages.

    I scurried here from the Playground, having never made a Z-fold card - more inspiration from you Bonnie. Beautiful result - right, I'm running back to the Playground now to look at the rest :) Getting my exercise this morning :))

    Hugs, Di xx
