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!

The Stamparatus made stamping the squirrel images so easy & perfectly placed too! See that here. It's the best stamp positioning tool out there!

I have a few more Eden's Garden cards to share today. This first one features the stamps & dies. I know many of you are loving the Ever Eden Designer paper but the stamps & dies are also lovely!

This card is one of the cards in my free 4 card class this month. Anyone who places an order over $50 receives a pre-cut card class & PDF. The kit does not include stamping but everything is die-cut for you; even the bow is done!

Do you see the texture on the large Soft Succulent layer? That is from the die itself; not an embossing folder. You can see how that's done in the video shown here.

I used Evening Evergreen & Cherry Cobbler ink and the Eden's Garden stamp set.

The next card features the pretty Ever Eden Designer Paper as well as the stamps & dies seen here. It's a unique layout with just a few layered 2" squares, a stamped background and the pretty greeting label die-cuts.

Save

Note the layering effect on these dies. I share how to do that on the video link above.
