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!

Team swaps with the Unbounded Love bundle & more

July 18, 2024

Here are a few more of our June Team card swaps. I shared quite a few last week as well. Our theme was to use a new color along with an old favorite.

Lori made this card with Summer Splash and Berry Burst with White.

Save

She added the Unbounded Beauty designer paper, the Deckled Rectangle dies and a Paper Butterfly Accent too. It's also a fun fold card!

It's a Dutch Door fun fold. Making a Dutch Door fold is so simple. To a full quarter card base you'll add a second layer that opens from the side. Her horizontal layer is 8 1/2" X 2 3/4" scored at 4 1/4".

Save

I like that you cannot see the inside greeting layer until you open the card. The greetings are from the Unbounded Love bundle.

~~~

Next is a monochromatic card made by Rita. She also used the Unbounded Love bundle.

Save

Her colors include Peach Pie, Black and White. The DSP is the 2024-26 In Color 6 X 6" pack. She added embossed texture to the background. I especially like how she added that pretty leaf die-cut frame over her stamped greeting. A fabulous idea where you don't have to cut the greeting layer to match the die-cut exactly.

~~~

Lastly is a fun celebratory card made by Joan.

Save

She featured the 'Light the Sky' stamp set seen here online. I love her colors of Summer Splash with Real Red, Black & White.

Greetings of the Season fun fold card with video & free project sheet

July 16, 2024

I'm loving the new Season of Green & Gold suite of projects that was released in the Online Exclusives this month. Check them all out here. There are tons of online extras that are not seen in any printed catalog.

Today's card is gorgeous if I do say so myself! It features the new Greetings of the Season stamp & die bundle and this gorgeous Season of Green & Gold specialty designer series paper.

Save

The card is a simple fold back with an extra layer added for the designer paper. It also has a textured layer on the left front fold as well. Lots of great but simple additions that puts it over the top.

Look at the greeting here: The new Greetings of the Season stamp set is loaded with stand alone and builder sentiments.

Save

The focus of my projects was the new Season of Green & Gold specialty designer paper and the new Season of Greetings stamp & die bundle seen here.

Save

The stamp set is fabulous but look at the dies! Each one has a hole for ribbon or twine. But look at the sample above; they didn't use them at all.

I shared two versions in my video; one with a gold printed piece of DSP on the front and the other with a striped one. Which do you prefer?

Save

There is a bundle of stamps & dies that coordinate with this designer paper but I didn't order them yet. I fussy cut the greenery & bells for my projects.

Save

Here's a photo of this beautiful designer paper; I will be featuring it in an upcoming kit to go.
