You start with a regular card base (8 1/2 x 5 1/2) and score at 4 1/4. Crease your fold. You will also need two 5 1/4 x 4 pieces of Basic White cardstock and another scrap piece big enough to stamp the first zebra on. In addition, you will need a 5 1/4 x 2" piece of dsp of your choice.
Start with the black cardbase. On the front flap, the right edge, mark 2" from the bottom then make a diagonal cut from the 2" mark to the center score line.
To create the 2nd fold line, score the front at 2 1/4" and fold. Now you should have your Z fold.
You will have 2 Basic White pieces, 4 x 5 1/4 each. One stays whole for the right inside. On the 2nd white piece, mark up 1 3/4" and cut from the mark across to the upper corner.
Set the top piece aside as a scrap.
On the remaining piece measure and mark 1 7/8" from each side. Trim the two pieces at the 1/7/8 marks, leaving a 1/4" piece of white that is trash. The two pieces will be your two remaining sides.
The last thing to cut is your 2 x 5 1/4 piece of Designer Series Paper,. Mark this piece 3 3/4" from the bottom on the right side. Cut from the mark to the corner. You may have to trim this just a tiny bit more to leave an even space on each side.
Now it's time to put your card together. On the spare white scrap, stamp the reared up zebra and fussy cut. Also stamp two of the small party hats. Using Blender Pens or Stamp n Write markers, color them with your choice of colors. These will need to be fussy cut too!
On the larger 4 x 5 1/4 white, stamp in Black Memento the zebra looking over his shoulder to the far right side. He should show completely when the card is closed. Stamp the grass in Evening Evergreen under him. Use a mini dimensional to place a hat on his head. To the far left stamp the second sentiment - It's Time to Celebrate. And directly above the zebra stamp Happy Birthday.
Stamp the zebra looking straight ahead onto the center white piece. Add the grass under him. Stamp the sentiment Kick Up Your Heels agove him. Attach the party hat with a mini-dimensional.
Attach the rearing zebra that you fussycut with dimensionals to the front piece of white. Stamp the stars with Pumpkin Pie 2-3 times from above the nose to the edge. Attach this piece to the front.
Fold the card closed and stamp a few more stars across above Happy Birthday.
Last, add the piece of dsp to the background and you are finished!!
