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.

New Product Sneak Peak; the incredible Sun Prints suite!

April 7, 2022

Today I'm sharing a pretty card made with two new In Colors, a new stamp & die bundle, embossing folder, ribbon and Designer Paper! Whew!

The new In Color I used here is called Orchid Oasis. The greeting and one fern image are stamped with another new In Color called Starry Night. They coordinate beautifully!

This card is a sketch my Flowerbug's Team is currently creating with. We have bi-monthly challenges of sketches or color combos with prize patrol. I thought this sketch would work well with some of our brand new product.

Save

The Nature's Prints stamp set comes with beautiful ferns, leaves, a flower, an ink splat and gorgeous mixed font greetings. It will be super popular! In fact I may feature the Sun Prints Designer Paper in a card kit to go in May; I love it so much!

It's hard to see the fern background on the White layer here. I sponged a bit of Orchid Oasis ink onto the textured fern CS. I wrapped the new 1/8" Orchid Oasis metallic trim around it and added a bow on the right; just like the sketch above. The white embellishments are the Classic Matte dots in the current Jan-June mini catalog.

You can see a peak of the pretty Sun Prints Designer Paper in the background. It is filled with botanical prints in Navy, Pacific Point, Starry Sky & Gray Granite. I'll share more projects featuring this suite next week.
