I love this card layout! It is an easy way to show off a peak of your pretty designer paper! I'm calling it a Diagonal Split card.

Blending tips with this cute Cheers & Sips card; video & free project sheet too!

July 16, 2025

Today I'm sharing a pretty & bright color combo for this cheery card using the Cheers & Sips stamp & die bundle. I made it on last week's Live video.

Save

The colors include Peach Pie with Melon Mambo. It's a simple layout but the stamped images sure make it special.

The circle die-cut is from the Spotlight on Nature dies. I stamped the images in Black Memento ink and colored them in with our Blends markers. I love them because you rarely get any lines when coloring. If you like to color you NEED the Blends markers! Watch the video to see how to blend easily.

I created a free project sheet with measurements & a supplies list. Click on the following link to print or download it. Download Cheers to You card

Cheers & Sips card with the Everyday Arches dies; video & free project sheet too!

July 15, 2025

A simple fun fold with the Everyday Arches dies and the Cheers & Sips suite.

I fussy cut the two drinks from the designer paper for the front arch. The inside arch has the drink, umbrella and greeting stamped from the images in the set. The card base is Old Olive and scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4". To get the arches lined up I encourage you to adhere the inside arch first and then close the card. Now adhere the front arch to match. Easy!
