Crane of Fortune Split Diagonal card with video; a great way to show off your Designer Paper

April 8, 2022

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.

I created this during a Facebook Live on Tuesday. Every week at 11 am CT I share a few projects to inspire YOU to stamp. Follow me here on Facebook. Click here to watch the video; there are three projects!

The card base is Gray Granite with white & gold accents. I used the Crane of Fortune bundle seen here. This bundle is NOT coming back in the new Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog; it will retire at the end of June.

Here are the measurements so you can try your hand at this card layout.

Colorful Autumn Trees card with a baby wipe technique

September 10, 2025
Fall is in the air here in North Dakota. Look at this gorgeous & colorful autumn tree!

Save

It’s made with the new Autumn Trees bundle seen here. Here’s how I did the tree:
1. I stamped the tree onto Crumb Cake card stock using Crumb Cake ink.
2. Then die-cut it with the tree die from the bundle.
3. Next I inked up a baby wipe with fall colors of Garden Green, Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie and Cajun Craze. I rolled it up and pressed it onto the tree die-cut repeatedly.
4. Lastly I used a Crumb Cake Blends marker to add more detail to the trunk.
Save

I used the Birch Wood embossing folder on the Vanilla background and lightly blended Cajun Craze ink over it. The greeting is from the More Messages bundle.

Stack, cut & shuffle card with Gathering Together DSP – free project sheet too!

September 9, 2025

Here’s another beautiful autumn themed card I shared on last week’s Live video.

Save

Have you ever made a triple stack, cut & shuffle card? It’s a great way to make multiples of a card layout and use your designer paper. Simply cut three different patterns of designer paper at 3 3/4″ X 5″. Stack them together and cut all at the same time. This way they’ll all fit together well once you shuffle them into 3 piles. What’s neat is that you don’t really have to measure your cuts! Watch the video below to see how it’s done.

The designer paper here is the new Gathering Together seen here. It’s gorgeous with Champagne foil accents. This paper is part of our Online Exclusives. To see all of these just released new items click here. Or download & save the Download Online Exclusives flyer

My colors include Early Espresso, Crushed Curry and Cajun Craze. The greeting and stamped die-cuts are from the Gathering Moments bundle seen here. The greeting die-cuts are from the Traditional Labels dies seen here. They’re my new favorite set of label dies!
