I wanted to share this card I made for a very special lady who's turning 95 this month.

My friend is amazing. One of her favorite activities is making cards, so
I hope she likes this one!

I used the Abundant Beauty Masks, Blending Brushes & Very Vanilla
cardstock to create the sunflowers, then fussy-cut them. Colors are
Lemon Lolly, Daffodil Delight, Pumpkin Pie, Pecan Pie & Early
Espresso. The inside & outside sentiments are from a new stamp set
called "So Sincere".
The beautiful paper I used for the numbers and strip along the bottom is
Oxidized Copper Specialty DSP.

This fun fold is one of my favorites, the Double Z-Fold. The base of the
card is 4-1/4" x 11" (Daffodil Delight) scored at 2-3/4" & 5-1/2".
The band along the bottom is 11" x 1-1/4", scored at 5-1/2" &
2-3/4".
The two patterned designer papers I used are retired, but you probably have
some others that would be lovely on this card style! The 2 yellow panels
are 2-1/2" x 4" and the large brown panel is 5-1/4" x 4".
The Oxidized Copper strips are 5-1/4" x 1" & 2-1/2" x 1" (2 pieces).
The trickiest part of the Double Z-Fold is fastening the band. The long
section of the band is glued to the short front section. The easiest way
to to apply liquid glue to the folded band, as that exposes only the sections
that should have glue. You'll want to fold the card closed while
adhering the band in place. Definitely have a "dry run" at it before
applying glue.
