A Zoyfold Card - What's a Zoyfold??

Hello all - I came back Sunday from my two week holiday in AZ &, of course, picked up some bug along the way. Have felt good, except for coughing periodically. Much better today than I was earlier in the week- yay. Well enough to watch Craft Roulette Episode #249 tonight and finish a card. I just didn't get it uploaded before the show ended, oh well - still good to upload through Thursday if you're a member.... (details HERE).

Here's what I made:

Supplies: Paper - Neenah Solar White;

Basic Grey Juniper Berry; BoBunny Black Tie Affair

Stamps - Hero ArtsBasic Grey collab Happy Holidays (retired) 

Dies - Sunny Studio Layered Snowflake Frame

Other - Recollections gems

Host Mary Gunn FUNN had Lydia Fiedler (Understand Blue) as her guest. Anyone on Splitcoaster Stamper knows Lydia. She does video for Hero Arts, as well as her own. Here's what the wheel spun for us:

• Project - Zoyfold: Say what?? Well, the wheel did it - landed on Zoyfold for project - yikes!! What is it? It's a card format that Mary and a CR member made up combining a Z-fold with a Joy-fold. 
• Colors - Elegant: Black and white seem elegant to me.
• Element - Front Door: Stamped house has a front door.
• Random - Three Circles: Stamped panel below the house has three circles.

First you fold back the front of an A2 card to form the Z, then add a panel to fold in from the right for the Joy-fold. I scored a small panel at 1/4" and adhered to the right, then added patterned paper to the card's inside to cover the tab. Trimmed patterned paper to 2 1/8 x 5.5" for the front of the Z tab. 

I'll add a block of white for the inside sentiment later or else write on the back. I added three die cut snowflakes; one at left is glued only to the left so the Joy panel can slide under it. Holds it down - sort of - probably needs a bigger snowflake!! To finish off, I added gems to the snowflake centers and to the centers of the small flowers in the circles.

Here's a view from the front with the card standing up:

I'll add my card to the January We Love Stamping Challenge since my Joy panel is stamped. Will also share my Christmas card at the January Merry Little Christmas Challenge #60.

That's it for today - hope you have a great weekend! Thanks for stopping!!
