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 had left-over packets of this card we made for club last month and decided to change it up for a totally new look!

I switched out the He's the Man designer paper to the Texture Chic Specialty paper. I also added a few vellum leaves from the Bough punch and a Gold die-cut accent from the Painted Label dies.

The greeting is from the Good Feelings stamp set; the label is the new Handmade Tag punch in the Holiday catalog.

This card features a die-cut butterfly from the Brilliant Wings dies. The butterfly wing actually holds the left flap closed.

I love the double flap of this fancy fold! Here are all three versions of my 'make-over' cards. I love switching it up to create something totally different and the Texture Chic specialty paper doesn't disappoint!

Unique Silver & Gold Designer Paper technique ideas with video!

August 4, 2022

I played with the Silver & Gold Designer Series Paper on this week's FB Live and this is one of my favorite projects:

My goal was to share different ways to add color to this pretty metallic themed paper. for this card I used our Water Brushes and our 2022-24 In Color ink. I filled the water brush with water, using the largest brush, added a wash of four of the five colors.

This card layout is one referred to as the Stack & Cut technique. You start out with at least 2 pieces of Designer Paper measuring 3 3/4" X 5" and cut using the template below. It's so easy and is a fabulous way to showcase your designer paper.

The sentiment is from the Amazing Phrasing stamp set – a free choice from our Sale-a-Bration catalog. This stamp set is free with any $100 Stampin' Up! order. See all of the Sale-a-Bration free choices here.
