Luxe Foliage Window Z-fold with free project sheet & video tutorial

September 28, 2026

I just love this card I made for last week’s video! It features the exclusive Luxe Foliage specialty designer series paper.

Gorgeous, right? I cased this fold from my friend Susie Wood. I get so many fun fold ideas from her. Check out her blog here.

This stunning Luxe Foliage DSP is a Product of the Month and available while supplies last. See it here. You can redeem it for just $5 once your order reaches the $75 mark. There are 4 sheets of each pattern in this pack!

I paired it with Secret Sea, Gold foil and White here. On this card I used the Everyday Arches dies for the window and the Tile Garden stamp set for the leaves/stem.

This card involves die-cutting a window in the front layer of your card and reusing it on the inside scored White layer. You can catch on to how it opens in the above photo but it may help a lot if you watch the video here.

On the left card below I used a different set of dies for my window. First the Tile Garden dies to create a rectangle window. Yes; these dies are square…. so I cut a second time to create the rectangle window. The Gold textured frame is made with the Phrases & Frames dies seen here.

I fussy cut the gold/Secret Sea flower for the front layer. I love the images in the Tile Garden bundle; they have a texture to them.

I created a free project sheet for this card. Click here to download or print it.

Below is the video tutorial; I hope it helps you in understanding how this is done. It is much easier than it looks!

Pleased as Punch fun fold card

February 5, 2020
I made this card for a recent online swap I participated in. I believe this type of fold is called a 'Joy Fold' card.

The Pool Party piece is folded in half; the bottom part is under the front flap of the White layer. See measurements below.

I chose to use the brand new Pleased as Punch designer paper seen here. It coordinates with FOUR of our current punches – amazing! The two hearts on this card are punched directly from the designer paper.

I love it so much I am featuring it for my February card kit to go. I'll share that with you tomorrow.

Details:
- The hearts are punched from the DSP with the Heart Punch Pack
- The ribbon is the White seam binding on page 25 of the January – June Mini catalog
- the sequins are from the free SAB Metallic Baker's Twine & Sequins combo pack seen here
- the embossing folder is the Coastal Weave 3D embossing folder seen here
Measurements:
- White – 4 1/4" X 8 1/2" scored at 5 1/2"
- Pool Party 3" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
- So Saffron 2 1/4" X 3 1/2"
- Pleased as Punch DSP 1/4" X 3 1/2"

Lovely Lily Pad Wow Card

February 3, 2020

Look at this gorgeous card Candace made for our last Flowerbug's Team card swap. She's a fabulous card designer!

She used the Lovely Lily Pad stamp set and the Lily Pad dies for this card. She colored the stamped lily with Wink of Stella. Did you know that if you stamp in our Classic ink you can just blend the colors without adding more ink? Super easy; especially with a nice outline image like this one.

Her colors here are Highland Heather, Coastal Cabana and Bermuda Bay with White and Olive accents.

The greeting here is from the 'Thanks for the Laughs' stamp set on page 11 of your Mini Catalog. See it here.

The Lovely Lily Pad stamp set is free with any $50 order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion throught March of 2020. The dies are free with a $100 order. Place a $150 order and you get both FREE plus $15 in free product and Buyer Brownie Points from me. See details on my loyalty program here.
