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!

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.

Two striking ‘WOW’ cards with Paper Strips!

April 5, 2021

This week I'm sharing the cards I made on last week's Facebook Live video. If you aren't following me on Facebook yet click here. I host a video each Tuesday morning at 11 am CT and twice a month on Monday evenings as well.

I had a bunch of paper strips leftover from cutting out for cards and kits and created some fun & unique cards with them.

This is one of my most favorites of all of the cards I made with my paper strips. I find the colors stunning together!

Save

The colors are Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana, Smoky Slate, Basic Gray, Bumblebee & Daffodil Delight. The 1/4" strips are simply adhered to the 4 1/4" X 11" card front and the excess is trimmed off afterwards.

These unique flowers are made with the Pierced Bloom dies seen here. Each flower has 4 layers.

The greeting is from the Happiest of Birthdays set; seen here.

Next is another striking card using the same colorful strips added horizontally this time.

Save

The pretty leafy die-cut is from the Christmas Layers dies seen here. They're on sale for $17.40 (was $29) now while supplies last! the greeting is from the Simply Succulent set seen here.
