I finally used this ADORABLE stamp set from a Mermaid Mystery Bundle from The Sassy Slub called Kiss The Girl! I just love these two together in their boat and used it to make my project for this week's Craft Roulette. The parameters were to make a Z-Fold Card (see below); use the colors of a green background + two; include rocks as an element; and finally something that floats.
I saw this unique fold on Pinterest so I tried to re-create it with an A2 top folding card base in white cardstock, then I trimmed the green cardstock to be 4" wide and scored at 5-3/8" in height, then again at 2-11/16". I know, confusing... But I wanted to create a white outline on the top and side so I only wanted 1/8" extra for the top (rather than 1/4" like I did off the sides to create a 1/8" border on both sides). Then I scored the leftover piece in half to create the "z" fold of the green cardstock.
The background is green and I added green tree branches/vines like the movie and my other two colors are red and blue. I included rocks sticking out of the water and the boat is floating while these two gaze into each other's eyes!
What do you think? Did I meet the parameters?
