Hello! While I was debating about whether or not I wanted to purchase the Hand Penned bundle and papers from Stampin' Up, I had already ordered the 'Memories & More' card pack from the suite. I really like the Memories and More card bases from them - they are nice and sturdy, & gave some kind of pattern on the card front with coordinating envelopes. They are also a nice size - 4-1/4 x 6-1/4" ... meant to add a 4 x 6" photo to if you choose to. Which I don't, ha ha.
Once I got the cards though, I decided that I would need the coordinating patterned paper as well ... I was still debating about the stamps & dies. For this Anniversary card, I pulled out both the Hand Penned Memories & More card & envelope as well as the patterned paper and a coordinating card stock. Everything that is available is linked below. Since I rarely post my cards in the same order I make them, you will know that I did finally decided to purchase the Hand Penned stamps & dies and used them to create a 5 x 7" Tower Pinwheel Card! you can see that one HERE.
For my Z-fold card today, I first folded the card 'inside out' so the polka dot pattern was inside the card on the right. Then I scored the left side of the card at 2-1/8" (half the width of the card front) and folded the right edge to the front along that score line. That created my Z Fold card base, that was all white except for the green polka dotted pattern inside.
