For security reasons, what you're suggesting is something I STRONGLY ADVISE AGAINST.

I understand but I need to do this, admin wants to get a copy of the order information. Can you please let me know how to do this?

Admin already gets a copy of the order confirmation at whatever email address you set in Admin->Configuration->Email Options->Send Extra Order Confirmation Emails to xxxxx

Re: Add Order Information in EXTRA CC ORDER email

The whole idea behind the SEPARATE email is to keep the credit card details SEPARATE. They should NOT be combined with other details. They should NOT be printed along with ANY other information. The info needs to be used ONCE and then destroyed. If you combine them then you're not properly destroying the data.
The closer you pull the details together in email (which has ZERO security), the more risk you open yourself up to.
Does your credit card company (merchant account provider) KNOW you're handling transactions this way?

In fact, the whole "email credit card middle-digits" option is going to disappear in all future versions of Zen Cart because of the security risks, and due to the requirements dictated by credit card companies. I suggest you start moving towards a credit-card handling solution that can be used directly on your store, such as the live gateway option offered by your merchant account provider. That will take off a load of administrative work from your staff who are wanting all these details on the same email.
