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!

• Adorable Turtle-y Cute fun fold card

  May 15, 2025

  ---

  Last weekend we held our monthly Team swap and Lori made this super cute card. 

  

  It's a vertical book binding card fold.  I love how this fold allows you to show off so much fun products like the DSP and the embossing folder. Her turtle & balloon are fussy cut from the Turtle-y Cute DSP.  

  

  She used the Turtle-y Cute suite seen here. So many fun elements! Unfortunately the Turtle Textures embossing folder is currently unavailable.  

  

  Measurements:

  • Base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score 1 3/4", 3 1/4" & 4 1/4"
  • yellow is 2 5/8" X 5 1/2"
  • green textured 2 3/8" X 5 1/4"
  • DSP 2 pieces at 3/4" X 5 1/4"
  • white inside 2 1/8" X 5 1/4"
  • banner greeting 2 3/4" X 7/8"

• Fun Team swaps with new In Colors!

  May 13, 2025

  ---

  Today my husband and I are off to Orlando for the 2025 Stampin' Up! incentive trip.  We're pretty excited to be there and see all of our SU friends. *less than 1% of SU demonstrators earn the incentive trip each year and I am so blessed to be one of them!  Thank you all for your support!!

  Sharon made this super fun card for our May Team swap. She used all 5 new In Colors!

  

  The circle die-cuts are from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here.  These dies are a 'must have' in my opinion.  I love how she used them as the focal point of her card.  She was inspired by a purchased card she received and is using this card to introduce the new in colors to her customers.  She used the Plaster Painting embossing folder on the White layer. 

  She added even more dies to the inside!  

  

  ~~~

  Next is a pretty card made by Marla. She chose to feature the Beautiful Gallery suite seen here.  

  

  She die-cut the pretty leaves with the Beautiful Motifs dies seen here. These dies are pretty special as some of them only cut out partially which allows for some neat effects. 

  Then she cut a frame from the Gallery Blooms dies seen here.  Once she added the Secret Sea frame over the Cloud Cover die-cut she pulled a few of the leaves to the front, over the frame edge.  Genius!  

  The designer papers are from the Beautiful Gallery 6 X 6" DSP stack seen here.  And even her gems are from this suite! 

  Here's the inside view.  

  

  Measurements:

  • Card base – Vanilla – 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" scored at 1 1/2" & 4 1/4". 
  • DSP on the inside left 2 5/8" X 5 1/2", on the right 1 5/8" X 5 1/2" 
  • Cloud Cover layer is 2 1/2" X 4"
