Pop Up Z Fold Using Stampin' Up! Nothing's Better Than Stamp

Jun 6

This was the first time I created this Pop Up Z fun fold card. It was actually quite easy to create. I recommend cutting all of the pieces needed first and then stamp the images before any assembling is done. I'm happy this stamp set is a carry over. I've had fun creating the chocolates!

See below for the list of products and colors used. I also included measurements and instructions with several pictures.

Products used can be purchased through my Stampin' Up! on-line store, unless otherwise stated. You can find my website information under SHOP.

DSP: Brights 6 x 6 (retired)
Stampin' Ink Pad: Magenta Madness (retired), Early Espresso, Soft Suede
Adhesive of choice (I used liquid glue)
Paper Trimmer #152392
Bone folder #102300
Paper Snips Scissors #103579

Cutting Instructions (measurements in inches):

Card base, Magenta Madness, 8 ½ x 5 ½, scored at 2 1/8 and 4 ¼
Early Espresso, 3 x 3, need 2 (one will be for the inside sentiment)
Early Espresso, 1 7/8 x 1 7/8, need 2
Basic White, 2 ¾ x 2 ¾, need 2
Basic White, 1 ¾ x 1 ¾, need 2
DSP, 1 7/8 x 5 ¼, need 2
DSP, 2 x 2, need 2, then cut diagonally

Instructions:

Fold the card base at score marks to create a Z fold, set aside.
Stamp images on Basic White and then adhere to Early Espresso. (I did stamp off the chocolate stamps.)
Adhere the DSPs to card base. Make sure you have equal spacing when adhering the diagonally cut pieces to the inside.
Adhere the inside stamped sentiment to card base.
Adhere the 2 x 2 pieces to the front fold. Be careful to line up the points and only placing adhesive on half of the pieces.
Let's work on the last remaining 3 x 3 piece.
- Trim approximately ¾ inch off the opposite side where you stamped the images.
- Using your trimmer to score, line up from corner to corner and score.
- Burnish the scored mark really well.
- Place the piece directly on top of the inside sentiment and then add adhesive to the cut side where you scored and trimmed. Close the card and the piece should adhere nicely to the second fold of the card base.
