Star of Light Z Fold Panel Card & Tutorial

Following on from yesterday's post... here is another simple Star of Light Small Square Z Fold Card with an added extra panel... so I guess that makes it a Z Fold Panel Card....

Just a die cut largest scalloped and plain square from the Layering Squares Framelits dies... a perfect fit...
Finished off with a Triple 3D Star stamped in Whisper White craft ink on Island Indigo card - and then die cut... 

And a very quick Tutorial for you... from A4 card...
(1) Cut a piece of Island Indigo card 10.5 x 21cm  
(2) Place on trimmer LANDSCAPE 
(3) Score at 10.5 and 5.25cm 
(4) Bone Fold Centre Line (10.5cm) as Valley and Front line (5.25cm) as Mountain

And a quick conversion for you guys in the US with the 8 1/2" x 11" cardstock.... 
(1) Cut a piece of Island Indigo card 4 1/4" x 8 1/2" 
(2) Place on trimmer LANDSCAPE 
(3) Score at 4 1/4" and 2 1/8" 
(4) Bone Fold Centre Line (4 1/4") as Valley and Front line (2 1/8") as Mountain

Though whether the Panel fits quite so well... Mmm not sure... the panel may look a "smidgeon" short.... If not... you need to go to the exact equivalent to our Metric (centimetres) card... which is a 4 1/8" x 8 1/4" piece of card. Landscape- Score 4 1/8" and 2 1/16".  I would appreciate any feedback on this if you try it out....
Simple but very effective...

I really like this card, the possibilities with various dies for the focal point is endless.

Lovely card. I purchased this set for my Christmas cards this year but haven't started them yet. Will have to try your version as well. Thank you!
