Hi Crafters
Today I am bringing you a card made using the Playful Pets Suite of products. This is a really cute suite featuring a variety of cats and dogs in the style of “Lady and the Tramp” illustrations. As soon as I saw the Shih Tzu on the Designer Series Paper, I knew I had to get it. For anyone who doesn’t know, I have a Shih Tzu Fur Baby called Saffie. She is now 18 months old and long haired.
I found this fancy fold idea of the Inside Z Fold from another Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator called Rachel Tessman. She has a great easy to follow video tutorial on YouTube using the World of Good Suite.
As usual, all the products used on this card are listed at the bottom of the page and each picture contains a clickable link which will take you direct to that product on my online shop.
Card Base
Basic Black 5-7/8″ x 8-1/4″ scored and folded at 4-1/8″

Scrap of Basic Black Cardstock for Black Die Cut Circle

Fussy Cut or Die Cut Image of Dog or Cat from DSP
Strip of DSP Measuring 8″ x 3/4″
- Attach the panel of DSP to the Card Base but only at the top
- Die Cut a Circle from the front of the Card using the second largest die in the Layered Circles
- Adhere the rest of the DSP to the Card Base
- Adhere the Whisper White Card to the inside right hand side of the Card Base, creating a Z Fold with the White Card
- With the Card Closed and using the aperture as a guide, stick the Black Die Cut Circle to the folded back section of the White Card
- Layer the White Die Cut Circle to the Black Circle and attach the image of the Dog or Cat
- Stamp a sentiment on the Die Cut Oval and attach to the front of the Card Base and decorate with a ribbon or embelishments
- Stamp the sentiment on the inside of the Card
- Attach the strip of DSP along the bottom of the inside of the card
- Add a piece of DSP to the flap of an envelope to coordinate with the card
I hope you enjoyed this project, I think it turned out quite cute. I might save it to give to Saffie for her birthday in December being as she inspired it. (Is that a bit sad?)
Anyway, thanks for stopping by
