Easy Seriously the Best Diagonal Strips cards

May 27, 2020

I made these fun diagonal stripes cards on a recent Facebook Live. It's so simple to do!

I used one of my favorite stamp sets; Seriously the Best here. I love the pretty bold font! You can see it here. It also coordinates with the Seriously the Best cards kit; which is 60% off!

I chose to use the retiring 6 X 6" 2019-21 In Color paper pack. It's still available while supplies last and is sale right now here!

Save

The strips are 1" long; you need about two of each at 1" X 6". Here's how to make it:

You'll need one piece of White CS measuring 4" X 5 1/4" to adhere the strips to.
Adhere two DSP strips across from end to end leaving a little space between the two. Tip: 6" is a little short so I cut the Peacock strip in half and separated it a bit under the greeting.
Now you'll add short lengths of DSP perpendicular to the first two strips, alternating colors and leaving a bit of space between them all.
Now you can trim off the excess even with the original White CS piece.
Adhere to your main card (5 1/2" X 8 1/2")

You might notice the cute little flowers on the greeting tags and that pretty, stitched die-cut. Well these are new products coming out in the upcoming new Stampin' Up! Annual catalog! The flowers are a new border punch and the dies are part of the Tasteful Label dies.

You can order these items on June 3rd! (or purchase the Stampin' Up! Starter kit and you can add them to your $125 in product!) Read about that here.

Sneak Peek of new products with a sketch for inspiration

October 27, 2025
On last week’s video I shared three cards featuring a new designer paper coming out in November. It’s called Brushed with Beauty.

Save

My colors include Very Vanilla, Mossy Meadow & Calypso Coral. The stamp & dies bundle is called Words of Beauty and is part of the Brushed with Beauty suite. Demonstrators (& new team members) are able to order it early but you can see and order these new products on November 4th. They’re part of our Online Exclusives – new products released every other month.

This layout was inspired by a sketch. Every month my Flowerbug’s have a creative challenge involving sketches or a color combo. This will be our November sketch inspiration. Sketches are a fabulous start to creating a card or scrapbook page. And they’re just an inspiration. As you can see I did not use a circle but the die from the Label Me Grateful dies seen here. I also flipped the center rectangle on it’s side.

Save

The Words of Beauty bundle will be a great option for greeting phrases. It includes two large sets of dies with the words ‘just’ and ‘because’ and then plenty of words to create your greeting. Plus the die I used with the word ‘because’ below is one of three in the package.

You’ll notice the new packaging in the photo below. All new stamps & dies will be in these envelopes. Also all new stamps will be clear photopolymer and not red rubber.

Save

Here’s the free project sheet for this card; click here to print or download it. Did you know I have a category at the top of my blog where you can see lots of these? They’re great inspiration and include many fun fold cards.

Save

I hope you’ll try this sketch layout. It’s a fun one! When you do, please share your project in my FB group here. We love seeing what everyone makes!

Below is the video for this card and two more – all featuring new & upcoming Stampin’ Up! products!
