RHINO READY BUNDLE AND THREE FUN FOLD CARDS

Hi Stampers!
Today let’s take a look at a new bundle from Stampin’ Up!®️ The bundle is called RHINO READY, and includes a stamp set and coordinating dies. As always, the bundle is priced at a 10% discount. The stamp set and the dies can also be purchased separately. The RHINO READY bundle is part of the STAMPIN’ UP! ONLINE EXCLUSIVES. ONLINE EXCLUSIVES products are only available in the Online Store, and new products will be added from time to time. Click  VIEW to see RHINO READY product details. 

Along with a look at the READY RHINO bundle, I have three cards to share. Each card is a different fun fold: a Slide Lock Gate Fold Card, a Partial Front Panel Card, and an Inner Z-Fold Card. Let’s look at the cards:

ASSEMBLY
* Fold the inside panel along the score lines - the 4” score line is a valley fold, the 6” score line is a mountain fold. This forms the Inner Z-fold panel.
* Stamp the rhino image on Basic White cardstock with the Tuxedo Black ink, stamp the other rhino image in the lower left hand corner of the inner panel, and color the images with Stampin’ Blends; stamp the sentiment on the inside panel (refer to photo) and stamp the “It’s a Great Day” sentiment on a scrap of basic white cardstock. 
* Adhere the DSP to the card front by placing adhesive along the sides of the DSP and toward the bottom center only. Avoid the area that will be die cut.
* Open the card base, place the second largest circle die centered in the upper half of the card front, run through the die cut machine. Save the cardstock cut out to mat the focal image. Use the largest circle die to cut out a circle from Basic White cardstock. Place the second largest circle die centered on the die cut, and run it through the die cut machine. This creates the frame for the cards front. Now use the smallest circle die to cut out the rhino image. Finally die cut the Great Day sentiment with the die from the Something Fancy Dies. 
* Adhere the rhino image to its mat. Adhere the frame to the card front around the cut out area, adhere the inner z-fold panel (see card photo for reference) inside the card, press dien the folded half of the panel, and close the card. Put adhesive on the left side of the back side of the focal image and place it inside the die cut area. It should be attached to the folded side of the inner panel.
* Place dimensionals on the back of the sentiment and adhere it to the front of the card.
* Place the embellishments on the card front.
