ZFold Heart Card (Sassy Card Camp, February 7, 2026)

This is a very simple fun-fold design that we made at my table yesterday in Berthoud.  Materials and measurements are listed below.


Card front

Inside

Measurements
* Card base is 8-1/2" x 5-1/2", scored at 1-3/8" and 4-1/4".  The card is folded closed at the 4-1/4" score line, and then folded back toward the front at the 1-3/8" score line to create the center panel.
* White card stock on inside of card is 5-1/4" x 2-5/8".
* Detailed patterned paper is 5-1/4" x 1-3/8" for inside; 5-1/4" x 2-5/8" for front.
* Embossed card stock for center panel is 5-1/4" x 1-1/8".
* Card stock and subtle patterned paper are 2-1/2" x 2-1/4" for pocket die cut.
* Card stock for tag is 2-3/4" x 1-9/16", trimmed at the corners to match heart tag.
* 1/8" ribbon for tag is approximately 5"

Materials
I did a little shopping here and there, including my own immense craft stash, for this card.
* True Thyme card stock, vintage color from Stampin' Up! (card base)
* River Rock card stock, another long-retired color from Stampin' Up! (center panel, tag and pocket)
* Gold Wedding Texture patterned paper for pocket (The Paper Studio from Hobby Lobby)
* Gold Wedding Intricate patterned paper for inside and left panel (The Paper Studio from Hobby Lobby)
* Hammermill White Premium Color Copy Cover Stock (80#) for inside
* Reverse Banner Dies from Fun Stampers Journey for pocket
* Parisian Flourish Embossing Folder from Stampin' Up!
* Heart Tags from TEMU
* 1/8" Red Sparkle Ribbon from Walmart

A Little Mini-Tutorial
* Adhere white card stock 1/8" from fold on inside of card.
* Adhere 5-1/4" x 1-3/8" patterned paper 1/8" from left edge on inside of card (should fit next to white card stock, but if it overlaps the white, that's fine too)
* Adhere 5-1/4" x 2-5/8" patterned paper 1/8" from left side of card front.
* Fold flap to the left over patterned paper and adhere embossed card stock to center panel.
* To create pocket, use liquid glue to draw a fine line along left, right, and bottom edges of card stock pocket shape, leaving top unglued.  Place patterned paper pocket over card stock.
* Use ribbon to tie card stock and heart tags together, and then slide back (card stock) tag into pocket, leaving heart tag hanging free in front of pocket.
* Adhere pocket (but NOT the tag) to center panel with foam tape or hexagons.  Make sure you can slip the tag in and out of the pocket.

That's it!  I didn't add any sentiments to this card because the design is so versatile you could use it for wedding, anniversary, Valentine's Day, or really any non-occasion when you just want to send someone a little love.
