Black and White – Welcome

Another double z-fold card as they are one of my favorite folds and this on is in black and white tones which are also my favorite colors.

To create this card, you just need a few things:

White card stock
Basic Black card stock
Botanical Textures designer series paper
Memorable Blooms stamp set and dies
Two layered label dies
Basic Black ink
Scoring board or paper trimmer scoring blade
Paper trimmer
Adhesive of choice

With your White card stock cut a card base to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and score at 2 1/8” and 4 ¼”. With Basic Black card stock cut a piece to 4” x 7 ½” and score at 3” and 5 1/4”. Cut another piece of White card stock to 1 3/8” x 2 7/8”. With the Botanical Textures designer series paper pack find the black texture piece and the opposite white textured piece. With the black textured piece cut one piece to 4” x 5 ¼” and two pieces to 1 7/8” x 5 ¼”. With the white textured piece cut one piece to 2 ¾” x 3 ¾” and two pieces to 2” x 3 ¾”.

Adhere the black textured designer series paper to the white card base and the white textured designer series paper to the black card stock. One the large portion of the black card stock piece, put adhesive to about one inch of the back of the big portion and center and adhere to the small section of the White card base with the black textured paper. Fold the black piece toward the front and put adhesive on the back and while still folded fold the White card base onto the black to adhere together.

Take the small White cards stock piece you cut to 1 3/8” x 2 7/8” with your Basic Black ink stamp the “Thanks so much” greeting toward the top. Adhere this in the center of the white textured inside panel. Stamp the “I appreciate your thoughtfulness” greeting on a spare piece of White card stock and cut out with your smaller label die, then cut out the larger label die with the Black card stock. Adhere the white label to the center of the black label and adhere the black label to the front center of the white textured front panel.

Cut two leaves from the Memorable Blooms leaf die and one black one. Adhere one of the white leaves to the left side of the card and layer the black one off-set over the white one. Cut the second white leaves to a shorter length and adhere long ways below the label.

Give this diverse black and white double z-fold thank you card to let someone know you appreciate their thoughtfulness and them.

Botanical Textures You Are Awesome Card

Black and white are my favorite colors, so I love this Botanical Textures designer series paper from Stampin’ Up. I also used the new Fancy Boader Dies which are really cute, as well with both being part of the Stampin’ Up Online Exclusives starting in March 2025.

To create this card, you just need a few things:

Basic Black card stock
White card stock
Botanical Textures designer series paper
Memorable Blooms stamp set and dies (leaf die)
Fancy Border Dies
Two nested stitched oval dies
Basic Black ink
Black lace
Paper trimmer
Adhesive of choice
Pop dots

With your Basic Black card stock cut a card base of 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half to 4 1/4 “ x 5 ½”. Cut two white card stock pieces to 4” x 5 ¼” and a strip to ¾” x 3 ¾”. With the Botanical Textures designer series paper, find a piece of the white small leaf paper and a piece of the black small leaf paper. With the white small leaf paper, cut a piece to 2 ¼” x 3 ¾” and with the black small leaf paper cut a piece to 3” x 3 ¾”.

Take the white strip you cut to ¾” x 3 ¾” and use the smaller design Fancy Border Dies die to cut one side of the strip. Take some spare Basic Black card stock and cut out a leaf with the leaf die from the Memorable Blooms die set and then also cut a larger stitched oval with your oval dies. With the smaller oval die cut out with a spare piece of white card stock. With the Memorable Blooms stamp set and your Basic Black ink stamp the “You are awesome!” greeting in the middle of the white oval.

Now let’s put the card together. Take your Basic Black card base and adhere the plain White card stock piece you cut to 4” x 5 ¼” to the front of the card base. Adhere the piece of black small leaves paper to the bottom of the white base and then the white small leaves paper to the top portion of the card. Adhere the white strip you cut with the fancy cut edge facing the bottom of your card. With a piece of black lace, or if you don’t have black lace you can cut a smaller strip of black card stock cut with the same Fancy Border Die. Adhere this to the top portion of your white strip. Take your “You are awesome” white oval and adhere to the center of the black oval and with pop dots adhere your black oval centered over your borders.

With the black leaf you cut out, adhere that to the right side of the White card stock you cut to 4” x 5 ¼”. Then with your Memborable Blooms stamp set and your Basic Black ink and stamp the “Thanks so much” greeting toward the upper right corner. Adhere this White piece to the inside of your card.

There is your lovely black and white Botanical Textures You Are Awesome card to give to someone you care about and make their day!
