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


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!

  • New Catalog sneak peak inspired by a fun sketch


    Today I'm sharing a sneak peek of new products from the upcoming 2025 Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!  

    Florals in Bloom swap

    I chose the Florals in Bloom designer paper and the Impressions Abloom stamp set plus new gems too!  My colors include Petunia Pop and Secret Sea plus white.  

    This layout was inspired by the following sketch.  I absolutely love using sketches for my inspiration.  I knew I wanted to feature the DSP but wasn't sure of my plan. This sketch fit the bill perfectly! 

    I made another pretty card that's totally different with this same sketch.  See it here.  

    Sketch 5a

    As you can see I did not follow it exactly.  My DSP measures 2 3/4" X 4" and 2 1/4" X 3".  The diagonal layer (secret sea) is 1 1/8" wide.  

    The stamped greetings are from the 'The Right Words' stamp set.  One of my new favorite greeting sets.  You're going to love it! 

    Impressions abloom swap

    I'll share another card featuring new products tomorrow.

  • Stunning guy cards in a pre-cut kit to go; limited quantity!


    I have a few of these wood textures guy card kits left in my shop.  They're filled with wood accents and textures. 

    The Best There is all.

    I started with a Paper Pumpkin kit from last year and jazzed it up with extra cards, envelopes and layers.  

    It features 12 cards with envelopes all with woodgrain paper patterns. It includes pre-cut cards, Linen Thread and all the elements you see here. You'll need a few inks, greeting images, adhesives and a paper trimmer to cut a few card bases down. 

    Reserve yours soon; I have a limited quantity of these!

    The PDF tutorial will be send to you immediately after purchase. The card kit will be sent a few days afterwards, unless it's combined with an April kit. Then they'll ship out together at the end of April. 

    Here's a link to the kit; it's $30 plus shipping. Combine it with any other kit and save on shipping costs! 

    The Best There is all.

  • Heads up! Card stock prices are rising in the upcoming 2025-26 Annual Catalog


    Everything seems to be rising in cost these days and unfortunately Stampin' Up! is experiencing this as well.  Mill prices have risen quite a bit so the price for our solid core card stock is going up in the new 2025 Annual Catalog.  

    I know it's upsetting to hear this but it is understandable. I want Stampin' Up! to stay in business and continue to offer us high quality card stock & other products.  Solid core CS does cost more than white core to produce and many mills do not produce it. Our card stock is among the best in the paper crafting world!  

    Su card stock

    So my advice to you is to stock up on your favorite colors or any that you use a lot.  The price change goes into effect in early May.  Here's a link to our beautiful card stock.  

    Luckily this is the only thing that we'll see a major price change in the upcoming new catalog. Yay!  It's easy to be negative about this but I have complete faith that Stampin' Up! does their best to keep prices as low as possible for us.
