Welcome
I have made another Double Z fold card, this time as a card for a keen gardener.
The patterned paper was double sided from an old pad by Authentic.
Again I used the seaweed stamp in the background, but this time it was as leaves for the flowers.
The flowers were stamped with one of my original stamp sets by Hero Arts - long since discontinued - stamped in Espresso Ink and coloured with prismacolor pencils, fussy cut and mounted on foam dots.
Another one of my original stamps, the sentiment is from Kiwistamping and embossed in gold.
The addition of the sequins was the final touch.

Why are these stamps discontinued? These are so cool and your card is indeed a weed free garden! :) LOVE the sentiment stamp too! I am enjoying your series on double z cards! :)
Wow! I love the d/p that you used and so creative to use the seaweed stamp as the leaves. It is perfect. Such work to fussy cut all those flowers, but it sure does make them pop.
