Get multiple cards from one sheet of Designer Paper! Video & free project sheet too.

August 24, 2026

I shared these beautiful cards on a Live video a few weeks ago. I wanted to make the most of one of my favorite sheets of the Valley in Bloom designer series paper. It’s discounted through August!

You can get more cards than I show above but I mistakenly cut in the wrong place and missed out on more. This pack of Valley in Bloom DSP has many beautiful sheets in it. Get some while it’s on sale.

I recommend cutting the 12 X 12″ sheet into 6 pieces at 3 1/2″ X 4 3/4″. The two center pieces won’t have as much greenery on them but you could change the layout up a bit to reflect that.

My colors include Pretty Peacock with Old Olive & White. I used a variety of punches for my greetings; mostly from my stash of White elements.

The card bases are 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ scored at 2 1/8″ & 4 1/4″. I made sure the Olive layer was small enough that the White inside piece shows as an inside layer. You can see the free project sheet with measurements, photos and supplies when you click here.

I stamped the inside of the cards with the Lily of the Valley stamp set and colored the flowers in with a Blender pen. I love this bundle so much. You can see it here.

You can see the video for this card and one more below. Don’t forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel!

2 Pretty Team card swaps with neat technique ideas!

March 12, 2025
Today I'm sharing two Team Swaps from last month. Both have neat product ideas.

First is Tracey's cute card. Can you guess what the tiny scallops on the DSP is?

She used the Petal Pink scalloped ribbon under the DSP! Tracey has a special gift on fun ways to use ribbon & twine. This effect is so pretty & delicate looking. It's currently in low inventory.

Measurements:

The DSP is 5 1/4" X 1 3/4", the White 5 1/4" X 4", the card base is 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 4 1/4". The layer under the ribbon & DSP is 5 1/4 X 2"

Here is a list of the many products she used:
- Hugs for Love bundle seen here (punch will be available in April)
- Moody Mauve, Basic White & Pretty in Pink CS
- Timeless Plaid 6 X 6" DSP seen here
- Spotlight on Nature dies seen here
- 2 3/8" circle punch
- Forever Plaid 3D embossing folder (circle)
- Heat embossing technique
~~~

Next is a pretty card made by Lori. Her special technique surprised me! Do you spot it?

She stitched her die-cut circle (Spotlight on Nature) with the 3 color pack of Baker's Twine!

Her card base is Flirty Flamingo and the 4" X 5 1/4" CS layer is textured with the Exposed Brick embossing folder seen here. The pretty DSP is the Sale-a-Bration Bloom Impressions (now retired). The greeting & die-cuts are from the Memorable Blooms bundle seen here.

I'll share more Team swaps tomorrow!

You are Remarkable fun fold card with the new Botanical Textures DSP & Arches dies

March 11, 2025

I shared this card on last week's FB Live. I made it for an online card swap. I just love it!

It's a simple fold back card with the Arches dies and the new You Are remarkable stamp set. Here's what it looks like opened: I love the double Arches dies here! These dies are in low inventory AGAIN. See them here.

The You Are Remarkable stamp set (seen here) is both a 2-step stamp and a Distinktive set which means you get multiple hues of ink with one stamping. I like that you can stamp the flower and leaves separately in different color inks from the single outline stamp. Note the inside flower image above that I stamped without the outline. I like it just as well this way too!

I created a free project sheet for this card. Click on the following link to download or print it. Download You Are Remarkable Arches card

Below is the video with this fun fold card and another pretty card using this pretty stamp set.
