Double Z Fun Fold Cards

I have another fun fold card for you today!!  This one is Double Z Fun Fold card that is so easy, but looks so hard - such a fake out!!!

This post also contains affiliate links and I will be compensated if you make a purchase after clicking on my links.  Various companies provided me with some product to create this project.  The opinions I share are solely my own.

Learn how to make these cards in the video below.

I used the wonderful Ida Rose Stamps on the cards.  They are so cute and there is a giveaway going on via my video - so watch the video to see all in the info about the giveaway!!   The first card i made using the Birds of a Feather stamp set.

When it opens it pulls apart to reveal the Double Z portion of the card.  Inside is a sweet sentiment stamps also from Ida Rose Stamps!

To hold all the paper layers of the Z fold together I used my Xyron Tape Runner - a card makers tool!!  

The second card had a cute whale on the front with balloon as part of the air lift Ida Rose Stamp set. 

Check out how this card looks opened up!

I used the same stamp set to make the 3rd card, but this time a cute elephant!

If you notice when the card is opened parts of the center stamped image should not have adhesive, only the left and center need to be stick down.

I of course applied my Xyron Taper Runner adhesive to the whole back section, but the easy fix is the Xyron Adhesive Eraser, it took off my excess sticky stuff so that my card would open!!  Fun fact - this adhesive eraser is about 5 years old - they last forever!!!

So now that everything is stuck to the correct places and not where it should not be, the card can open up to make the Double Z fold like seen below!

These are such cute cards to make that have a big WOW but are really easy to make!

DIY Folded Cone Treat Bags for Party Favors or Teacher Gifts

My kids have teacher appreciation this week at their school and I fully believe that our teachers need all the love and support we can give them!!  So a little extra something, even if it is small, means so much....and even more if it is handmade!!  So I made these fun treat bags filled with a little something for the teachers all made from scrapbook supplies!!

Here is a detailed video on how to make these fun treat bags!

I filled these fun little treat bags with some treats the teachers could keep in their desks and not get yucky, so some tea bags, hard candies, and chocolates...plus a few loose flowers for fun.

Each treat bag is made from a section of 12x12 paper from the American Crafts Pink Paislee Confetti Wishes collection cut down to 8x8 inches and folded into a cone (to learn how please see the video).  I used the Xyron Mega runner to help keep the two side stuck together.  It is amazing how a little strip of glue works wonders!!

To hold the cone together to keep all the yummy treats I punched holes using the W R Memory Keepers Big Bite in the top flap and tied it with some matching colored ribbon complete with a cute little tag that complements each cone treat bag.

The tags are made using the American Crafts Bazzill cardstock papers that match the collections and the stickers and chipboard elements from the American Crafts Pink Paislee Confetti Wishes collection.  Some of the stickers and chipboard stuck out on the sides and were still sticky.  Super easy fix, just get out your Xyron Adhesive Eraser and it removes the sticky from the backs of the stickers that you no longer want sticky.  It is like magic!

I just love this American Crafts Pink Paislee Confetti Wishes collection because not only is it filled with amazing tropical papers, but it also works perfect for birthdays.  I did not use any of the "birthday" elements for this project (you know I will at some point), but I am totally in love with the tropical papers and parrots!!!

The fun thing about these DIY treat bags is you can put what ever you like inside them and make them any colors you want!!  Just switch out the stickers and embellishments on the tags and you have cute little birthday treat cones!!

What would you make for a teacher appreciation gift?
