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!

Here’s the card I featured on last week’s video. We made it at my February card clubs locally and it was a big hit!

Save

My colors include Lost Lagoon, Pecan Pie & Basic Beige. There are two different pieces of the designer paper that’s called Nature Walk and can be seen here.

There are lots of pieces and extra elements to this card. It was super fun to put together. That neat striped embossing folder on the extra Lost Lagoon layer is called Lovely Stripes and can be seen here. It’s one of my new favorites.

This card is kept closed by the narrow ‘flap’ attached to the right side of the card. I added a small triangle to the DSP layer to tuck the corner into. Works great To hold that flap down!

Save

The flap is adhered ‘underneath’ the DSP layer inside the card. *note the other embossing folder used on the card above. It’s called Stone & Vine and is also a deeply textured folder seen here.

There are many, many details on this card I want to highlight. Here goes:
- The die-cut leaves and ‘wood’ piece under the greeting are from the Nature’s Symphony bundle seen here.
- The die-cut leaves are cut out from our two-sided card stock. I love that you can choose the light or the dark side which gives more color choices!
- I added Pecan Pie ink to that wood die-cut with a blending brush.
- The greeting is from the Three Banner punch bundle seen here.
I created a free project sheet you can print or download. Click to see it.

Below is the video tutorial for this card; I hope you watch it as I give multiple tips and ways to make your crafting process easier.
