Bee-utiful Accordion Z Fun Fold Card Tutorial

Are you ready to create a bee-utiful handmade card that’s sure to impress? I had so much fun designing this Accordion Z Fun Fold card using the Stampin’ Up! Meant to Bee Scrapbooking Workshop Kit. While this kit is designed for scrapbooking, I love thinking outside the box and transforming kits into unique card-making projects. This one is buzzing with charm!

Why You’ll Love This Card

If you adore bees, fun folds, and a little creative challenge, this card is perfect for you! The Accordion Z Fold is an interactive design that stands out beautifully when displayed, yet folds flat for easy mailing. Plus, the nesting hexagon dies from the Meant to Bee die set are absolutely to die for (see what I did there?). They add an elegant touch that complements the adorable bee-themed elements perfectly.

Fun Features of This Card

🐝 Adorable Bee Theme – Perfect for bee lovers, nature enthusiasts, or anyone who loves a playful design.
🎨 Creative Use of Kits – A great example of how you can use Stampin’ Up! kits in fresh, new ways.
📬 Mailable Fun Fold – The card folds flat to fit in a standard envelope—no extra postage required!
💜 Sparkly Embellishments – Purple sequins add the perfect finishing touch.

Products & Materials Used

To create this card, I used:
✔ Meant to Bee Scrapbooking Workshop Kit – perfect for repurposing into a card!
✔ Meant to Bee Dies – the hexagon shapes make this design pop.
✔ Cute as Can Bee Designer Paper – Instead of the kit, thesis another great option to make this card buzz-worthy.
✔ Sticker Sheet from the Kit – “All the Buzz” is a sticker from this set.
✔ Purple Sequins – a fun embellishment I earned for free from Sale-a-bration!
