3 in 1 Triple Panel cards

August 7, 2020

I made these pretty cards on last week's Facebook Live 'Stamp with Me' Monday night. *See video below

The 2nd & 4th Monday's you can stamp with me Live on Facebook here. The next one is Monday, August 10th. I post the measurements & supplies ahead of time so you can prepare. Then afterwards you can share your cards too!

I chose to use a Triple Panel technique; at least that's what I'm calling it. I saw a sketch like it and created my own version here. You start out with 3 pieces of card stock or designer paper and cut them all the same way.

I used Bumblebee, Night of Navy and Smoky Slate for the cards above along with the Tasteful Touches bundle. That pretty leaf die-cut is from the Birds & More dies set.

Measurements:

Three pieces of card stock or DSP measuring 4 1/4" X 5 1/2".

Cute one full 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base of each color you use.

Cutting directions:

1st cut: Cut the first small triangle off of each piece. (On the bottom right card it's the Navy piece) Make a mark 1 1/2" from the bottom left corner and 2" from the bottom right corner. Cut this triangle off of all three pieces.

2nd cut: Make a mark from the upper left corner across at 1 3/4". Make a mark 2" from the lower left angled edge. Cut.

The 3rd cut isn't necessary as you'll use the angled piece left from the first two cuts.

Now you have three different colored pieces for each card. Mix & match one color per card!

On the cards above the colors are Bermuda Bay, Black and Smoky Slate and the same Tasteful Touches bundle and leaf die from above.

A few favorite craft storage tips

December 27, 2024

I thought I'd share some of my favorite ways to store my stamping products. Some people enjoy organizing more than creating!

First is how I store my stamp sets. In a dresser drawer. I purchased a few dressers from IKEA many years ago and they've held up very well despite multiple moves.

Here's a photo of my craft studio. I am very, very lucky to have such a beautiful room in our home for my business and classes.

Here's how I store my 8 1/2" X 11" card stock and paper scraps. In front of each color of card stock I keep a cello bag for the scraps in that color. I've used this method for years and it really helps me use my scraps.

Next is how I store my 12 X 12" designer paper and scrapbook pages.

It's a shoe storage cabinet! My 12 X 12" paper fits like it was made just for it! You can get two stacks side by side in it since it's about 30" wide. Plus it has a divider to fit even more paper above it. I love the way the doors hinge open. There are three doors and it's only about a foot deep.

Lastly here's how I store my inks, markers and ribbon. These are Stampin' Up! storage and they're fully customizable to fit what you need. Click here to see the options.

I love that it fits right on my work area for easy reach. As you can see I organize my inks in rainbow order. I'm not sure why my Blends aren't but I know my granddaughter will love to do that for me this week while she's here.

Diagonal Fun Fold with new products! Free project sheet & video too.

December 24, 2024

Today I'm sharing a neat fun fold I hadn't made for awhile. It's a diagonal fold that is fun and easy.

Save

I used a few new, upcoming products from both the 2025 Spring and the 2025 Sale-a-Bration catalogs. The greeting & punch are made with the Bright Borders set and coordinating To the Point punch. The designer paper is the Toadstool Gardens 6" DSP from the SAB catalog. It's free with any $60 purchase from January 7th – February 28th, 2025.

I made over 20 of them for a mail out swap I joined. The colors include Melon Mambo & Granny Apple Green.

I share how to make it in the video here and seen below. Basically it involves trimming off half of one side of the card base, flipping it and adhering it back to the card front. The only confusing this can be adding your designer paper. I suggest using a non-directional paper when trying this out.

Here's the free project sheet you can print or download. Click on the following link: Download Bright Borders Diagonal fun fold

Below is the video if you'd like to see how to assemble this card. I also share a pretty Sophisticated Sled project too.
