Triple Z-fold with Friendly Foliage with video & free project sheet

We made this cool card at my Card Clubs in November. I adore the Friendly Foliage bundle!

Save

This fun fold looks difficult but it’s quite deceiving. It’s really so simple to make; I hope you try one! I’m a bit obsessed with this fold!

The Friendly Foliage bundle is a big favorite of many since it came out in our Online store a few months ago.

• Gorgeous Joseph’s Coat technique with free project sheet & video

  August 12, 2025

  ---

  Here’s another beautiful card made with the Joseph’s Coat technique. I shared it on last week’s Live video.  It’s so fun!

  Save

  My colors include Secret Sea, Timid Tiger and Darling Duckling.  The stamp set is called Artistic Leaves and can be seen here. 

  Save

  This technique involved adding color to White card stock and then heat embossing images in Clear powder over the colors.  Next rub a dark ink pad (Memento Black here).  The embossed images resist the black ink – it must be water-based ink!  

  Watch the video below to see how it’s done.  It’s super fun and such a cool effect.  

  I stamped the inside leaf with color by inking it in Timid Tiger ink and adding Secret Sea to the outer edges.  Then I stamped the coordinating stamp in Darling Duckling.

• A colorful Joseph’s Coat technique with Layered Thoughts

  August 11, 2025

  ---

  Have you ever done the Joseph’s Coat technique?  It’s one of those techniques that makes you feel like an artist.

  Save

  I shared how to do it on last week’s Live video. The card I’m featuring today uses the Layering Thoughts technique with three of our newest In Colors – Strawberry Slush, Darling Duckling and Timid Tiger.  

  Save

  These colors – card stock, ink, refills, gems, markers and card stock are all 15% off in August. See these products and so much more here.  It’s a great time to grab these items while discounted. 

  This technique involves a few steps:

  1. sponge colors over your neutral card stock – I used White. 
  2. Tap or rub the embossing buddy over the layer. 
  3. Stamp your images using Versamark ink. 
  4. Heat emboss with Clear embossing powder and your heat tool. Let dry. 
  5. Rub a dark ink (memento black here) over the entire layer.  The embossed areas will resist the water based ink. 
  6. Dab off excess ink with a tissue or paper towel.  Done!  

  Here’s how I finished the inside.  I wanted to use all of the colors I colored on the front so I used my Stampin’ Write markers on the stamp before stamping.
