Refreshed Beauty Z-Fold Card

This lovely Z-Fold card is made using the Refreshed Beauty designer series paper from Stampin’ Up online exclusives from early 2025. 

Other items you will need for making this card are the following:

  • Granny Apple Green ink pad
  • Stamp Set for a greeting (I used Cheerful Daisies)
  • A stamp block
  • Dies for labels (I used Sentimental Park dies)
  • Paper trimmer
  • Your preferred adhesive
  • Pop Dot adhesive


For the card base I used Peach Pie cardstock.  This is cut to 4 ¼” x 11” then folded in half to make a card of 4 ¼” x 5 ½”.  Now fold the front portion in half again making the front 2 ¾” x 4 ¼” with the back remaining the 4 ¼” x 5 ½”, this gives you the Z-fold. 

Then cut a piece of designer series paper (the yellow with birds) to 4” x 5 ¼” and two other pieces of designer series paper (I used the peach and a piece of the green with flowers) 2 ½” x 4 ¼”. 

Take your card base, adhere the large piece of your designer series paper (yellow piece with the birds) centered on the back of your card base.  Adhere the two other smaller pieces of designer series paper to the front (piece chevron) and the center (green floral) section of your card. 

Die cut out two labels from white and a background label from Peach Pie card stock.  If you don’t have dies or a die cut machine then just cut some rectangular pieces that will layer.  For the front, stamp your greeting of choice (mine was “wishing you the brightest birthday from the Cheerful Daisies stamp set) with the Granny Apple Green ink on one of the white labels and adhere to the background label piece. 

Turn your label over and place pop dots on the right half of your greeting label and adhere the popped dot portion to your front, centered in full card when closed.  Then place your other white label on the back portion of your card for signature space but make sure it is also centered and doesn’t show when you close your card.  You can also add an inside greeting if you choose, just make sure to leave enough room to sign the card. 

Your card is now finished and ready to send to a friend for a birthday surprise.
