A neat Tower card with video & free project sheet with Peaceful Garden

December 3, 2025

I just love this fun fold ‘tower’ card layout! It gives you lots of opportunities to feature your designer paper.

I featured the Peace on Earth bundle and the Modern Garden designer paper. The colors include White, Secret Sea and Silver. The Peace on Earth bundle was a ‘must have’ for me because of the pretty greetings and layering die-cuts. I like that the greetings include more than just Christmas making it quite versatile.

This Tower card fun fold is made with a 11″ X 4 1/4″ piece of card stock but scored 5 times across the long edge. Then you simply adhere the ends together and allow the other end to open. Genius!

Note how the center panel swivels a bit…. I stamped one card with a holiday greeting and the other with a sympathy greeting. You can see the back side of the Holiday card here. I pulled out a Paper Pumpkin stamp set to fit.

I love the textured embossing on the left White panel. That is from the Peaceful Greenery embossing folder seen here. I used just the side of this folder to achieve the textured edge.

I created a free project sheet for this card; simply click on this link to print or download it.

Here’s the tip on how the front panel swivels a bit on the fold. So easy to achieve!

It’s two strips of card stock about 1/2″ wide and 1″ long folded in half. Each half is adhered with the fold on the main card fold.

Below is the video tutorial for this card, another pretty Christmas card and a candy bar treat holder.

I used the Best Dressed Designer paper seen here but you can substitute other paper, colors, stamps and punches. The stamped greetings are from the Peaceful Moments set here. I use this stamp set so much; the sentiments are wonderful.

After the video many people share their finished cards. It's so fun to see what products everyone uses and how similar (or not) they are to mine.

This card literally took me 5 minutes to make. Here's the steps:
1. Cut a White card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
2. Cut the See a Silhouette DSP to 4" X 5 1/4". Adhere to the card
3. Die-cut two pieces a White 2 1/2" X 4" stitched rectangle and a Black Ornate Frame.
4. Stamp the greeting and leaves in Black Memento ink. Add the flowers in Poppy Parade ink. Adhere to the card.
5. Stamp the 'I miss you a lot' greeting on a scrap of White. Punch out with the Classic Label punch. Add with mini dimensionals.
6. Add a few rhinestones. Done!
You can see the See a Silhouette stamp set here and the Ornate Frames dies here. Remember that if you order any Ornate bundle from me in April you get a free 3 cards pre-cut kit! Details below:
