Ep 472: No Cut Fun Fold Tutorial - Accordion Z Fold Cards with Stampin' Up!®'s Friends for Life

When is a Fun Fold Card not a fun fold? Fortunately today's card isn't a problem - for a card with this clever panel, it's surprisingly easy to put together. With the Friends for Life stamps and dies (from the Full of Life Suite Collection), the colors and greetings bring a fun fold to the next creative level.
Start by cutting the card base to 11 x 5.5 inches and score at 1.25, 3.5, 5.25 and 7 inches. Cut the Z fold layer to 6.5 x 3.25 and the panels to 3 inches. Fold the card base in a zig zag manner then add glue to the back outer edges of the scored rectangle. Adhere around the accordion portion of the card and add your layers!

Hi Meg. I love your top.

[@MegLoven]

Thanks so much!!

Hi Meg , making this card on Wednesday

[@MegLoven]

Hope it was a fun make!! Did you see the update to the scoring? I missed a line in the description: cut the card base to 11 x 5.5 inches and score at 1.25, 3.5, 5.25 and 7 inches

[@lynnolsen3299]

I’m new to SU, I have this score board, do you know if we can get more of the markers. Mine are missing.

[@MegLoven]

Sorry, but I don't think the markers are a separate item at this point. If you know someone with a 3D printer, they'd be an easy print!

[@margaretburkett9634]

Ok so I think I did something wrong but when I looked at measurements I think they are wrong for the card base.

[@MegLoven]

Ack! Thanks Margaret - I left one of the score line markings off the directions in my blog - cut card base to 11 x 5.5 inches and score at 1.25, 3.5, 5.25 and 7 inches (the 5 1/4" line was missing - good catch!)
