Happy Friday everyone!! I am super excited about this week's Friday Quickie because they are such FUN, HAPPY Cards!! Nothing better than that!  The Theme is Z Folds and while I know they are not really anything new, sometimes I forget about them and I wanted to bring them back with a little update for you!

So the first gather your supplies:

  • 1/2 sheet (long way–4 1/4 x 11) of Bermuda Bay
  • 3 x 4 1/2 Pool Party
  • 2 3/4 x 4 1/4 Whisper White (x2)
  • 1 1/2 x ? vellum (depending on what word you use)
  • Whisper White Ink Pad
  • Ombre Ink Pads
  • Summer Sorbet and Layered Letters Stamp Sets
  • Embossing Buddy
  • Wink of Stella

Of course you'll fold your card into the z shape.  Then Stamp and cut out the Ombre Snow Cones.  Adhere them to the Pool Party Layer, then to the Z fold card.

Add Wink of Stella to the "ice" and then stamp and emboss your word (Summer in the case of my card) in white.

Stamp the "fun" on the other white panel in the Ombre pads and adhere to center on the inside of the card so it will be hidden by the top layer.  That's it!

  2. Adorable cards. Had to laugh, I never thought about people not knowing what detasseling is. Both of my kids were detassalers, I never had to do it (only time I was happy to have allergies) and my younger sister was one. Another Iowan.
