Rain Is Glitter Z-Fold

Hey everybody, happy Wednesday! And Merry Christmas to those who celebrate! I hope you’re having a fantastic week. I’m up on the Love From Lizi blog today with a tutorial for making a triple Z-fold, my debut project as a new design team member, and I’m over the moon excited! This card features our awesome Rainbow Wishes stamp set (from our newest release) along with the coordinating Nimbus Stencil, Winter Warmers 6×6 Patterned Paper Pack, Stitched Rectangles Nested Cutting Dies, and Mini Pearl Strips. You know how I love fun folds, and this one is pretty high up there on my list of all-time favorites, so I thought it would be a great design for my first Love From Lizi project!

I started by stamping the cloud and raindrops along with the sentiment from the Rainbow Wishes stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Solar White cardstock. I cut it with a Stitched Rectangle Nested Cutting Die and then stenciled the cloud with the Nimbus Stencil, a Catherine Pooler Detail Blending Brush, and Catherine Pooler Tranquil ink. I added a tiny dot of glue to each raindrop and sprinkled on some Stampin’ Up Dazzling Diamonds glitter.

While the focal image was drying, I die cut a slightly larger rectangle using the same Stitched Rectangle Nested Cutting Dies. I cut the card base and strips from CutCardStock Basis Pink, along with layering panels from coordinating prints in the Winter Warmers 6×6 Patterned Paper Pack, and then assembled the card. The finishing touch was adding some Mini Pearl Strips across the top and bottom of the card front.

I cut the back panel from Solar White cardstock and embellished it with strips of the patterned papers used on the front. I stamped a sentiment from the Rainbow Wishes stamp set in black ink and adhered the panel to the back of the card.

Crazy cat lady and crafting junkie! We care for 15 feline rescues and just added a Forkie pup to the tribe (Frenchie + Yorkie)! I’m addicted to stamping and love making cards, ATCs, and 3-D projects (especially paper shoes, paper purses and mini albums). I also dabble in mixed media, art journaling, altered art and custom jewelry. If you’re looking for me, I’ll either be in my studio or getting some kitty or puppy lovins! ;)
