Double Z Fold Cards with Painted Pumpkins and Poetic Petals

Did you play along with my Mystery Monday Stampin’? If you followed the clues you would have created a Double Z Fun Fold Card similar to these.
Mystery Solved!
Stampin' Up! Double Z fun fold cards with Painted Pumpkins and Poetic Petals-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
This fun fold card is double the fun! It’s two Z folds in one card! You can see from the photo below how it got it’s name.

I had so much fun playing with lots of new products! Let’s take a closer look at each of today’s cards.

This fall thank you card showcases the New Painted Patch Designer Series Paper.

Pumpkin spice has nothing on the Painted Patch 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper. This pack is bursting with painted pumpkins, cheerful gourds, leafy sprigs, and all the cozy fall feels in a fresh, on-trend color palette. Flip each sheet over for easy-to-use patterns that make cards, tags, and gift packaging come together faster than you can say sweater weather.

I used three different patterns on my card. The pumpkins on the front are die cut from the DSP with the Painted Pumpkin Dies. I adhered these to the 2 2/4 square I cut using the New Tile Garden Dies.

Here’s a look at the NEW Painted Pumpkin Dies.

Create your own slice of autumn with the Painted Pumpkins Dies. Fall favorites, leafy vines, and a sweet little fence come together to create layered scenes that feel straight out of a crisp fall day. Think playful, dimensional, and just the right amount of seasonal cute.
These dies are available as a bundle; however, I didn’t purchase the coordinating stamp set as these dies can easily stand alone. I can’t wait to create with the fence/gate! So many fun possibilities!

The Tile Garden Dies are versatile squares and a “must-have” addition to a crafter’s toolkit.

Tile Garden Dies make it easy to add layered interest to your handmade cards and scrapbook pages. These dies come in varying sizes and edge patterns for lots of options for creating frames, borders, and layers.

Here’s a few more photos showing the Double Z fold. It stands and displays nicely!

The sentiments are from a NEW Online Exclusive Samp Set, Thanks & Giving. I will include the links below for all the new products I used on today’s cards.

I really love this DSP for fall! You know what I always say…Every card needs a coordinated envelope. It’s so easy to add a 2 1/4 x 6 piece of DSP to an envelope flap and trim. For this card I used 2 pieces together.

My second card showcases more New products from the September – December Catalog and September Online Exclusives.
Stampin' Up! Poetic Petals, Words & Wishes, and Soiree Salutations fun fold thank you card with Mosaic Garden Designer Series Paper-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
This card features the New Mosaic Garden Designer Series Paper.
Stampin' Up! Mosaic Garden Designer Series Paper-visit juststampin.com for inspiration, ordering information, and more-Jeanie Stark StampinUp
Bring artisan elegance to your paper crafting with the Mosaic Garden 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper. This paper features tile-inspired artwork: soft watercolor florals framed like hand-painted ceramic borders, subtle all-over patterns reminiscent of decorative tiles, and organic brushstrokes. Use large pieces as backgrounds on cards and scrapbooks or cut smaller pieces to use as accents.

One of my favorite new products is the Poetic Petals Dies. This is an online exclusive so you won’t find it in any catalog. Be sure to browse all the new Online Exclusive products!!!

A little detail around the edges can change the whole feel of a card. The Poetic Petals Dies include square dies with decorative edge details and floral centerpieces that create full frames or peek-through windows. Use them to frame sentiments, create openings, or add a little extra interest wherever your project needs it.

I went a little “rogue” with this card and added an extra layer behind the die cut flowers on the front and inside of my card. This time I cut the 2 3/4 squares using the stylish Shapes Dies then cut my floral die from the center creating a nice sized border.
