This was a card I did for a two-step stamping swap. She told us to think outside the box and this is what I came up with. Love the template and will use this again because it gets a big 'WOW' everytime I send one. I've also used this for invitations and gotten great responses!

Alas, I cannot post a template because I don't know how. I'm practically computer illiterate, but it is so easy, you won't believe it.
Cut an 8 1/2 x 11 cardstock in half length-wise so you end up with a 4 1/4 x 11. Now score every 1 3/8". Mountain fold, valley fold, etc. until you are all "accordioned." I rolled every other "score" to get the watercolor vine on every other piece. Then, the front is a 1 1/2" x 1 1/2", the second is 2" x 2," the third is 2 1/2" x 2 1/2" and the final piece is 3" x 3". I mounted each one by adding a 1/4" but this looks great unmounted as well. I just wanted more color. I hope this is explained enough...Enjoy!
