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.

Stunning Prairie Grass sunset scene with a masked moon & video tutorial

July 29, 2025

I'm thrilled to share this amazing card with you today. We made it at my July card clubs.

Save

I created a beautiful sunset with stamps, ink and a 'moon mask'. I used Blending Brushes with Secret Sea, Darling Duckling and Timid Tiger inks.

It features the beautiful Prairie Grass stamp set seen here. Since I'm from North Dakota where we have tons of 'prairie' this set was a must have! *Unfortunately it is now out of stock but you can add your email to be informed when it's available. It should be back around August 11th.

After stamping the grassy image we added a post-it note mask made from a circle punch. Then we blended the inks on little by little. It's important to use less ink and more time to get this pretty soft effect.

See the flap on the left side of the card above? That flap holds down the front of the card. So simple but a fun technique. Notice the light sponging on the greeting inside?

Gorgeous Prairie Grass Joy Fold card with video & free project sheet

July 28, 2025

I shared this pretty card on last week's Live video.

Save

Isn't it pretty? The colors include Fresh Freesia with Black accents. All of my projects featured the brand new Prairie Grass stamp set seen here.

I also used the amazing Thoughtful Journey DSP seen here. It's absolutely perfect for scene builder stamps like this one and has some of the best and easiest backgrounds to start with.

This card is called a 'Joy Fold' – who knows why but it's actually one fold name I haven't forgotten. Basically it has two flaps that overlap each other. It gives you multiple opportunities to use your Designer Papers or textured layers.

The embossing folder here is called Glass & Gardens seen here. It's unavailable right now but you can add yourself to the list to be notified when it's back in stock.
