Swinging Z-Fold Card



It's always fun play around with fancy fold cards, and today, I've made a Swinging Z-Fold Card .






From the front, you can't really tell the cool layers that are waiting to be discovered...


As you open the card, the butterfly swings out - revealing this gorgeous inside.




I used the Diamond Strips and Accents to add this dimensional border to the small panel, and used the offcuts from this to create the chevron pattern on the right (over my Fleuriste Newsprint stamp)


Doesn't this look like fun? I hope you will give it a try!
