This weeks Southern Belles challenge was to make a card with an unusual fold, which got me thinking back to a card class I taught about 4 years ago which was a card called Fold Out Z Cards. So here is two cards I have made with this unusual fold.

Here are the Instructions:

Cut a piece of cardstock 7¼” x 9¼”, from the left side score at 2½” and 4¾”. Fold the first score (2½”) to the back and the second score (4¾”) to the front forming a Z. Using Bone folder crease well and unfold and lay out flat. Cut two 2½” x 7¼” strips of pattern paper or coloured cardstock. Adhere one on the left edge of the card and the other on the right edge. Cut 3 circles 2½” in size from cardstock and embelish with your chosen stamp image. ( I have also used the 1¼” Circle Punch and 1 3/8″ Circle Punch to place on top of the 2½” cut circles). Once you have adhered your circles together, Adhere circles down the centre of the first fold. Cut along the outside right half of the circle with a craft knife. Fold card back into the Z fold and your finished.
