5 beautiful cards the easy way; with my ‘5 at a time’ templates!

October 26, 2026

Check out these gorgeous cards made with my 5 at a time templates!

Aren’t they pretty? I chose this stamp set because of the pretty floral images. And I knew they’d make an easy, beautiful background. My colors include Hydrangea Hue, Peaceful Pine and Golden Glow.

My 5 at a time templates make creating 5 cards so effortlessly! This first template is what I used for my White stamped layer.

Vertically, make the first cut from an 8 1/2″ X 11″ White CS at 4 3/4″. Then cut 3 pieces from the left section at 3 1/2″. Now cut the other piece at 3 1/2″ wide and cut that into two pieces at 4 3/4″. Save the bottom piece for a greeting layer.

This next template is for the colored layer under the White stamped pieces. It’s just an 1/8″ larger than the White layers.

Cut in the same manner as the one above; starting vertically at 4 7/8″. Please watch the video here, or below to see how it’s done.

I cut 5 card bases for these stamped layers and you can see how I stamped the insides of some above. I love stamping backgrounds; our stamp images are fantastic! And this set has that distinktive feel to the images which gives multiple hues of colors when stamping.

It’s actually in a bundle with the amazing Tile Garden dies. See the stamp set here and the bundle here.

I created a free project sheet for these cards and it includes the two templates! Click here to print or download it.

And below is the video tutorial I shared last week with an entire different set of cards! I’ll share another version tomorrow.

The Starter kit deal ends on Saturday! I hope you’ll consider joining my team and taking advantage of the continual discount on all future Stampin’ Up! products!

Easy Country Club Fun Fold card

May 4, 2020
At first I thought this Country Club designer paper was just for people who liked to golf. But once I had the paper in my hand it's sooo much more than that! It is full of wonderful patterns and plaids too!

Today I'm sharing a project my Card Club gals received in April. It's a unique fold that really shows of this cool designer paper.

Save

The card opens up in the middle and the back is one flat piece. Here are the measurements:
- Night of Navy 5 1/2" X 4 1/4"
- Crushed Curry 3 1/4" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
- Country Club DSP 3" square on top and 1" X 3" on the bottom.
- Green or Smoky slate strip is 3/4" X 4"
I used the A Good Man stamp set for the greetings. I added a knot of the Country Club Twine Combo pack beside the greeting with a mini glue dot.

Here's the project sheet with directions, measurements and products used. You can download and save it or print it out. Download 2020 April Clubhouse birthday

I'll have a few more cards featuring this designer paper tomorrow.

Use the Double Wonder Template to make 11 quick cards! Join me Thursday night!

April 29, 2020
Do you ever planned a stamping session focusing on just a few products? It's easy to get overwhelmed with everything you own. Using this method is actually quite liberating and fuels the creative process. I've started doing that more and more often especially when planning my card kits to go. I pick Stampin' Up! products from the same suite and choose some sketches or layouts for card ideas. the process is so enjoyable this way!

Lately I've been seeing groups of cards using the Double Wonder template and had to try it. It was originally designed by Shannon West from Stampin' Up! It's so clever!! You start out with 2 pieces of 6" X 12" designer paper and using the pieces you can quickly have 11 finished cards!

Look at these! I'll be making these cards Live tomorrow night at 7 pm CT. Join me either here on FB or on Zoom.

Here are the steps:
1. Pick out 2 different sheets of 6 X 12" designer paper and 11 card bases. Make sure you have some ribbons or embellishments to match.
2. Use the template below to cut your designer paper; cutting both at once.
3. Grab some scraps of White and coordinating colors for punches/greetings.
4. Cut 4 pieces of layering card stock at 3 1/4" X 5" and one 3 3/4" square for the bonus card. (I used White)
5. Choose a stamp set & ink to coordinate.
6. Or use the new Share Sunshine Covid-19 digital download like I did for my greetings. No stamping needed! You can purchase that here. https://covid19.stampinup.com/products/giving-back-us-ca Price: $12.00 USD
7. Come back here tomorrow night so we can stamp together.
8. Or use this link to join via Zoom. *see tips on zoom meetings below https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88215870191
I chose to use the new Ornate Garden designer paper for my cards. Anything goes but a non directional design is best; try not to choose a paper that needs to be north and south.
