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.

Dragonfly Garden Quick Fun-fold Card with video!

June 15, 2021
We made this pretty dragonfly card at last month's Card Clubs.

I knew I wanted to use the new In Color shimmer vellum and thought the Dragonflies punch would work perfectly. It sure did! I wish you could see the shimmer in person; it's beautiful!

Save

They had a choice of Polished Pink or Fresh Freesia for their card and could punch a variety of colors for their dragonflies.

Save

We used the Dragonfly Garden stamp set which is bundled with the Dragonflies punch in the bundle seen here. See how the wings are curled? The bone folder works beautifully for this. *Watch the video below to see how it's done.

Tip: I recommend using Stazon Black ink when stamping on the vellum so it dries quickly. Vellum paper doesn't 'absorb' ink easily so it can stay wet a long time.

Save

Below are the measurements for you and Download May Dragonfly Garden fun fold here
- Black base 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"
  Fresh Freesia or Polished Pink 3 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
  In Good Taste Designer paper 3" X 5 1/4"
  White strip 1" X 3"
  Shimmer Vellum scraps for Dragonfly punches

Plentiful Plants Cards

June 14, 2021

I took some time to play with the new Plentiful Plants bundle last week and came up with these cards:

Save

Can you believe that both the brick, the pots and leaves are all cut from the designer paper? I did stamp the plant on the left but the others are all die-cut from the Bloom Where You're Planted DSP. I love when Stampin' Up! gives us paper and dies that coordinate.

Save

The bottom Soft Succulent CS is made with the Stitched Leaves die; one of my new favorites! See it here.

~~~

This next card also features the Bloom Where You're Planted DSP.

Save

Each of the three plants & pots are from the DSP except for the bowl in the center. That is a die-cut made from Cinnamon Cider CS. I placed them on a die-cut from the Hippo & Friends dies. I sponged the bottom with Cinnamon Cider ink.

This card is 4 1/4" X 11" and scored at 1 1/4" and 6 3/4". The right flap is glued down and has a 1" X 4" Soft Succulent strip adhered to it. It was textured with the Macrame 3D embossing folder seen here.
