3 sets of quick Stack & Cute cards; with video & template!


One week ago I shared my Stack & Cut cards in a FB live video.  I couldn't stop at one set since they're so quick & easy.  I made 3 different sets of cards!  Click here to watch the video. 

Follow me on FB here; so you can watch my weekly videos. 

This first set features the Hues of Happiness designer paper from the upcoming new Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!  It goes live tomorrow and you can all start ordering (collecting) new products!  

The card bases are Pool Party and the large layer is Highland Heather.  I used a variety of circle dies for the main greeting.  The stitched banners are from a new set of dies called Stylish Shapes; it's filled with stitched circles, squares and banners.  

Here's the template I used for the 'Stack & Cut' pieces.  Choose 4 sheets of DSP and cut two at once.  They're layered on a 4" X 5 1/4" piece then added to your main card base.  So quick & easy and it uses up that Designer Paper you're hoarding!  

The 2nd set of cards features the Tea Boutique designer paper.  It's a 6 X 6" stack filled with all of the new In Colors!  The greeting is from the Good Feelings stamp set.  

The colors include Sweet Sorbet and Starry Sky.  

Here are all of them in one photo.  If you make a set of these cards please share them here in my FB group by May 8th to get in on Prize Patrol for a free embellishment.  I'd love to see YOUR version of these neat cards.  

And lastly here is the first set I made with the Heart & Home DSP from the January-June catalog. This paper is filled with soft prints and a variety of whitewashed wood on each sheet.  The colors include Pale Papaya, Garden Green White & Smoky Slate.  The greetings are from the Blessings of Home bundle; which is carrying over into the new Annual Catalog.

  • Ombre Blending with Decorative Masks; an easy technique!


    If you struggle to get a smooth blend I have a few suggestions for you.  We made this striking card at a class this weekend.  Everyone loved it and they all turned out fabulous!

    Details:

    • The colors here are Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie and Cherry Cobbler; with a bit of gold glitz thrown in.
    • The leaves are die-cut from the Intricate Leaves dies seen here. 
    • The greeting is from the Thinking, Thanks & Peace stamp set in the Holiday catalog. I love this greeting!  See it here.

    Here are some tips & suggestions for perfect Ombre' blending:

    • Use out Blending Brushes; they really do make a smooth blend easier.
    • Choose colors that are similar in hue. For instance blues and greens, or yellows to reds.  
    • Blend over a Decorative Mask – see them all here.  The patterned stencils/masks seem to break up any inconsistencies in your blending. 
    • Here I added color onto Crumb Cake card stock; that also helps and would be a a good color to practice on. 
    • I start out with the lightest color and work my way downward; in this case at an angle.  
    • I leave a tiny space between colors and make sure to blend/connect them by going into the previous color just a bit before moving.

  • Neat Fun Fold – Diagonal ‘Faux’ Pocket card!


    I made this unique fun-fold card on Monday night's FB Live.  It was Stamp with Me night; the 2nd & 4th Monday's of each month here on my FB page.  You can see all of my videos here on my YouTube channel. 

    Isn't it pretty?!  This paper is called Blackberry Beauty and it's filled with Gold accents on each sheet.  You can see it here.  It's also featured in my August card kit to go here and PDF tutorial here.  

    The greetings are from the Sunny Sentiments stamp set in the Annual catalog; one of my favorites for greetings.  See it here. The printed die-cuts are from the Blackberry Beauty Ephemera pack seen here. 

    The card below is the same fold; but made with the gorgeous Expressions in Ink Specialty Designer Paper.  These colors are Pale Papaya, Polished Pink, White and gold accents.

    Below are the measurements for you.  I highly recommend you watch the video below; it will make it much easier to make.
