Hello and welcome to the We Create May Blog Hop. This month’s theme is “Mother May I.” So, I decided to make a Double Z-fold Mother’s Day Card.
For my card, I used products from the Unbounded Beauty Suite Collection, which is now available in the new 2024-2025 Annual Catalog: the Flowers of Beauty Photopolymer Stamp Set, the Unbounded Love Photopolymer Stamp Set, and the Unbounded Beauty Designer Series Paper.
I have made a Z-fold card before, but never a double One. It’s not as hard as it looks.
Berry Burst card stock is used for the card base and panels. This is one of my favorite Stampin’ Up! colors. Which one is yours?
The floral images were stamped using the Stamp-off technique. This technique involves inking up an image full strength and stamping it off on a scrap piece of paper before stamping. I stamped the flowers on the front panel in Pretty in Pink and the flower on the inside in Petunia Pop. The Mother’s Day sentiment is from the Flower Cart Photopolymer Stamp Set. I used the Dark Petunia Pop Stampin’ Blends to color the Rhinestone Basic Jewels for the bling.
I hope I have inspired you to make your own Double Z-Fold card. To continue along the blog hop, click on the image below to see what my friend Tricia has made for us, or follow the blog hop roll call below.

I’m always impressed when stampers do these fancy folds and make it look easy, I find them intimidating! This is a beautiful card and a show-stopper for sure. Thanks for playing along with us at SUO Challenges!
