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.

Biggest Wish in a Beautiful Color Combination

June 22, 2021
Here's a pretty card with a soft & soothing color combination made for an online swap.

Save

The colors include our new Fresh Freesia with Pool Party. What do you think of it?

I featured quite a few new products on this simple card. Here's the list:
1. Biggest Wishes stamp set seen here.
2. Iconic Dies for the feathers; seen here.
3. Hello & Thanks embossing folders seen here.
4. Pattern Party Designer Series Paper pack seen here.
The polka dot paper is from the Pattern Party host paper pack on page 171 of your catalog. It's can only be earned with host benefits. It's just one of the choices in the Host Rewards but my favorite by far. It's 48 big sheets of 12 X 12" Designer Paper. One side is colors & patterns and the other is Black & White.

The greeting label is from the Stitched So Sweetly dies seen here. I colored our white Pearl jewels to match with the Fresh Freesia Blends marker.

Bamboo Beauty & the Ink Swipe Technique

June 21, 2021
I created this striking card for a swap I participated in with some of my Demonstrator leader friends. I wanted to highlight the beautiful Bamboo Beauty stamp set.

Save

I decided to create a bold background effect by swiping ink pads directly across my Basic White CS. Each one turned out totally different!

Save

I chose to use these colors from top to bottom – Pale Papaya, Mango Melody, Flirty Flamingo & Calypso Coral. Depending on how well inked your pads are you can get a variety of hues. After I swiped the darker colors I used the Pale Papaya over it all to blend and soften the colors together.

Save

My measurements for this card are as follows:
- So Saffron card base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4"
- White (before swiping) 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
- Black 3 5/8" X 4 7/8"
I hope you try this technique; it's so fun! I shared this technique using glossy paper in a video a few years ago. Here's a link to it.
