Comfort & Healing Tower Card

A friend of mine asked me if I had ever seen a Tower Card.  She included pictures of cards she created in her email and boom....off I went to my craft room.  Thank you Donna for the inspiration!

I decided to create a template which took me HOURS!  Link is provided below. There are several YouTube videos out there, just hop on over there and see for yourself. I added one important step that helped me fold the card in the correct manner. My first card wasn't folded correctly that is why I created an additional four score lines in the card base. I highly suggest you make a sample or two.

The tutorial is FREE with your $25 Stampin' Up! purchase using my Hostess Code. My tutorial is also available for $3.95.

Directions on how to gift your greeting cards can be found HERE

I use Press'n Seal to create ribbon and flower layout designs.  Simply create your ribbon zigzag, with the sticky side down of the Press'n Seal, apply that to your ribbon.  Apply adhesive to where you want to place the embellishment and press your work onto your card.  Gently pull back the Press'n Seal and presto - truly a work of art.
