Easy Seriously the Best Diagonal Strips cards

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!

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") 

Save

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.

• Snail Mail & Pretty Perennials; a cute combo with video!

  January 18, 2021

  Here are the cards I created for Monday night's FB Live video.  It was 'Stamp with Me' night which occurs on the 2nd & 4th Monday nights.  Join me here!

  When I first saw the Snail Mail designer paper I fell in love!  I had absolutely no idea it would be this cute.  Have you found that to be true?  You see things in a catalog and think they're okay or kind of nice. But then in real life you are amazed?!  This is one of those papers!

  This was inspired by a similar card I received in a swap from my friend Dawn Olchefske.  

  Here they are separately:
