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!

Scary Cute ‘side step’ fun fold card by Sharon!

October 18, 2022

Sharon shared this card with us at our last Team Meeting. It's adorable!!

Save

Her colors are Rich Razzleberry, Black & Granny Apple Green.

She said she cased it from Tammy White. The card base is all one piece. It's called a side-step card and here is a link to a tutorial I wrote years ago. She used the Scary Silhouette dies for the left side and the Bewitching stamp set for the hat & boots on the right.

The hat & boots are popped up on the steps with thin strips of window sheets. There is white glimmer paper behind the die-cuts on the front. I love the say she achieved the silhouette under the Black layer. She did this by snipping the green die-cut in half on the sides and moving it down from the top and up from the bottom.

EASY 5 at a time cards with Leaves of Holly

October 17, 2022

I created a set of gorgeous Christmas cards on last week's FB Live video using my two templates.

Save

I used the Leaves of Holly bundle seen here and these colors – Soft Succulent, Evening Evergreen, Real Red & Cherry Cobbler. My Soft Succulent card bases are either 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" or 4 1/4" X 11".

I did use a few images from Merriest Moments stamp set as well.

Here is the main template that you stamp on. It shows the cutting measurements that give you 5 pieces for your card fronts. I frequently use these measurements for the inside of cards; especially when I make a bunch at a time. Instead of just 4 layers you get 5 from one piece of 8 1/2" X 11" card stock.

Each piece measures 4 3/4" X 3 1/2"

Save

In the photo below I stamped on the Basic White card stock (shown on the right) and then cut that into 5 pieces using the template above. I stamped down the center mostly, leaving open areas in each section so I could stamp a greeting. If it didn't work out (or I just want to), I add a die-cut or punched greeting.

To see how I did this the link for the video is here.

Save

Here's the other template for the colored layer under the stamped White piece. In my case it's Cherry Cobbler. Each piece measures 4 7/8" X 3 5/8" giving you a narrow edge, but all 5 from one sheet with very little waste! Love that!

What do you think? Are you going to try the 5 at a time templates?

Click here or on the photo below to watch the video; it really is super easy.

The Gorgeous Leaves of Holly bundle is not just for Christmas!

October 14, 2022

The Leaves of Holly bundle is back! It was unavailable for awhile but it's back in stock now.

I made this pretty card for last month's Flowerbug's Team swap. The theme was Fall or Halloween. I wanted to show that this bundle isn't just for Christmas. What do you think?

Save

I used Bermuda Bay, Blackberry Bliss and a bit of Old Olive here. The greeting is from the Charming Sentiments set seen here.

After I stamped the card panel I felt it was a bit busy so I added a layer of Vellum card stock over it. I love the soft feel that the vellum gives!

Here's a peek at the Leaves of Holly bundle. It's full of pretty images and wonderful dies. The greeting die-cut with the leaves attached is my very favorite; see it on the bottom left below. See it in my store here.

Save

For added texture I added sponging around the edge and on the die-cut leaves.

You can see another group of cards I did on a video I just shared. It features my 5 at a time templates.
