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!
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.
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.
If you haven’t watched my recent videos you may not know that we have moved from Minot, ND to Bismarck, ND this month. It’s been a super busy time of downsizing, selling excess, packing and moving.
Why did we move? Well, there are many reasons but mostly my husband retired and we moved to be closer to our son and other family. It was very difficult to leave our beautiful home but we will love our new home too. Here’s a picture of my office/craft room before I was able to unpack. I’ll share new photos once I’m settled.
In that back doorway is a walk in closet; that will help with storage! I did find a nice L shaped desk and hope to get that set up today; then I can really set up my room.
This is why I’ve been missing in action lately; it’s hard to do both stamping/business and moving/getting settled. So I’m taking a bit of a break in August. Have patience with me; I’ll be back to blogging and videos soon!
My colors here are White with Hydrangea Hue and Granny Apple Green. I colored the Lily of the Valley die-cuts with both Blends markers and tried the new Shimmer Brushes too. The gorgeous textured layers are made with the Floral Spray 3D embossing folder; it’s back in stock now!See it here.
Look closely at the layers in my photo above and note how the upper left piece tucks under the right lower piece. That’s why it’s called a crossover fold; it actually locks together to lay mostly flat. You can see how it’s made in the video below.
