Simple Thank You Z-fold card

It's Monday and I am home in Dallas--there is nothing like sleeping in your own bed. 
Here is a simple Z fold card I made this weekend--the paper is DCWV Fall stack. 
The sentiment is from the Bountiful Blessings stamp collection from the Pink Cricut (Sarah).  These mocha pearls match the copper printing perfectly!!!!!  A little faux stitching to finish off the outside.
On the inside of the Z fold I placed a cream sheet of paper cut to fit and added another stamp from the same collection and plenty of space to write a message.

Hope you liked this simple card--I will announce the winner of the stamp set from the Thankful blog hop this weekend!  Welcome to all the new followers--I am so looking forward to sharing with you all! 
This week is crazy busy!  I went to Archivers this weekend and did the make and takes and bought way to  much stuff--that I have to share cause I think you all will want some of it! Check back on Tuesday for a super cute treat holder for the holiday season!
Make it a great one

    Bryan,

    It was funny to hear you call your beautiful card "simple", because I think the z fold makes it seem so fancy!!! ;) I love all the details (the copper brads and the way the ink matches perfectly, your choice of papers, the stamp on the inside, ...)!

    Thank you so much for sharing (& enjoy your time at home!),

    Jennifer

    I'm with Jennifer I was saying the same thing about your card being simple. It's not to me.. LOL. It's awesome! I'm loving the colors.. LOVE the sentiment stamp and the pearls are a perfect color. TFS! Glad you got to rest at your own home :)

    I love your card! The papers are just perfect for this and the stamped sentiment is wonderful! I need to go research for instructions on making a Z fold.

    I agree with the other comments, it is ELEGANT (certainly NOT simple). The design, paper choice, and matching tones of brads and ink make it simply outstanding!

    Thanks, as always, for sharing your creativity with us, Bryan!
