Today I am sharing a double Z fold card made for another of my oldest and loveliest friends. We have been friends for over 40 years!

Making this gorgeous card

I started by cutting a piece of Thick Whisper White cardstock 11” by 5½” and another piece 9¼” by 4¼”. Using my Simply Scored Scoring Tool I scored both pieces at 2¾” and 5½” on the long sides. I chose 2 of the gorgeous pieces of the Tropical Escape dsp. I cut 1 panel at 5¼” by 5¼” and 2 panels at 5¼” by 2½” and adhered the pieces to the larger Thick Whisper White card base. This dsp is stunning and I love the green and pink colour combination.

I took the detailed square die from the Tropical Thinlit dies and using my Big Shot I die cut it for Soft Sea Foam cardstock. I then cut a square of Granny Apple Green cardstock 2 ¾” by 2 ¾” and added it behind the Soft Sea Foam piece with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. This piece was then added to the front of the smaller Thick Whisper White panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I cut 2 panels of Granny Apple Green cardstock 2 ¾” by 2 ¾” and round the top corners with the Detailed Trio Punch. I cut 2 panels of Whisper White cardstock 2 ½” by 2 ½”, round the upper corners as before then stamped one of the leaves from the Tropical Chic stamp set in Granny Apple Green ink in the upper right or lower left corner. These panels were then adhered to the Granny Apple Green layers and glued the Thick Whisper White piece.

I stamped the flowers in 1^st and 2^nd generation Flirty Flamingo ink onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock and die cut them out with my Big Shot and the Tropical Thinlits. The flowers were then added with either Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive or Stampin’ Dimensionals to the 3 front panels of the card. I also cut an extra leaf from Granny Apple Green cardstock and added it to the die cut panel.

The sentiment from the Dragonfly Dreams stamp set was stamped in Granny Apple Green ink. The smaller panel was then added to the larger panel with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I love this style of card. I added a scattering of Love What You Do Artisan Pearls to the card front.

I used my Envelope Punch Board and some retired Flirty Flamingo dsp to make an envelope for the card.

I am really happy with this card and I really hope Lyndsay likes it.
