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

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

Save

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.

• Double-Decker fun fold card with video tutorial and free project sheet

  October 6, 2023

  ---

  Here's the second card we made at my September card clubs. It's a 'Double-Decker' fun fold card.

  It features the pretty All About Autumn specialty paper that is so popular it's been hard to keep in stock! It should be back around the middle of October.  See it here.

  For the circle die-cuts I chose to use both Stylish Shapes for the Vanilla circles and Deckled circle dies for the Early Espresso circle.  The die-cuts in Vanilla & Copper Clay are from the Magical Meadow dies.

  The greetings are from one of my favorite stamp sets in the Holiday catalog – So Sincere.

  Here's the free project sheet for you: Download Sept '23 Double Decker card

  A double-decker card is where the center layer is popped up by a small box attached to the inside, back of the card like this.

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  You need to adhere the back layer before adding this box. Then you top it with your center layer; for my version it's a piece of designer paper.

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  I added a second circle to the inside designer paper layer for signing.  But one of my smart customers thought of adding it to the back so it doesn't cover up any of the pretty paper. A great idea!

• A Stunning fall card with Gorgeous Garden; with a video tutorial and free project sheet!

  October 4, 2023

  ---

  Check out this fabulous, colorful autumn card we made at my September card clubs!  

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  We added fall colors to the die-cut using Blending brushes. 

  This die-cut is in the Gorgeous Garden dies seen here.  This is the leaves die and there is also a floral option as shown below. 

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  **Check out these other projects featuring these dies – here and here.

  If you're interested in these dies now is a great time to purchase them.  Add on another item or two and you'll qualify to receive a Mystery Box from me!  *see details below

  The card base is Vanilla as well as the die-cut.  Ink colors include: Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie and Wild Wheat.

  We started with the two darkest colors – Cherry Cobbler and Old Olive, adding a few splotches of color leaving many open areas for the remaining two colors. I prefer to add the lightest color of Wild Wheat last, so it can fill in any open areas without covering up the previous colors. 

  Watch the video here or scroll down to see it below.

  The stamps & leaf die-cuts are from the Autumn Leaves bundle seen here.  It's a big favorite of mine this season.  

  
  
  
  
  Save
  

  The die-cut is almost the entire card front except for a thin edge. I added a strip of Cherry Cobbler to the left side. The greeting is stamped on a Tailored Tags die-cut. The leaves are from both foil and Oxidized Copper papers.  *The Oxidized Copper paper is back in stock!
