Who says you can’t have your cake and eat it too? With these 2 for 1 z-fold cards, you’ll be the overachiever of the crafting world – making two gorgeous cards while everyone else is still fumbling with their first fold! It’s like discovering your favorite coffee shop has been giving you free refills all along, except it’s even better because now you have double the handmade cards to share (I mean, thoughtfully distribute to loved ones).
The real pizzaz happens when you add the stunning texture from the Stampin’ Up! Glass & Gardens embossing folder – because who doesn’t love a card that practically begs to be displayed? This gorgeous embossing folder transforms ordinary cardstock into something that looks incredible, giving your 2 for 1 z-fold cards a classy, boutique feel. The intricate garden design pairs beautifully with the floral elements, creating depth and visual interest that makes both cards look like they stepped out of a fancy stationery shop. Plus, since you’re making two cards at once, you get to enjoy that satisfying crunch of the embossing folder twice – it’s like bubble wrap for crafters, but with much prettier results!
