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") 

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.

  • Christmas themed fun-fold swaps


    Last Friday I started sharing last month's fun fold cards made by my talented Flowerbug's Team members. Here are a few more 

    Jacki created this one using the Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer paper and the Beautiful Autumn stamp set. It's a latch card!

    Once you add the layers to the card front you'll use the Classic Label punch to create the window for the latch to catch into.  

    Measurements:

    • Night of Navy card base 4 1/4" X 9" scored at 5 1/2"
    • DSP 3 3/4" square on the front; 1 1/4" X 4" on the inside right edge
    • Pretty Peacock 4" square ont he front and a thin strip on the right inside edge
    • Latch – Navy 2" X 3 1/2" scored at 1/2"
    • Vanilla latch 1 3/4" X 2 3/4", inside is 4" X 5 1/4"

    Here's another card made by Paula featuring the Little Treat Box dies and the Wrapped in Christmas stamp set.  

    She cut the treat box dies into separate pieces (Garden Green & Vanilla) for her card front.  It also opens up to reveal a gift card holder inside. Lots of texture with the Winter Snow embossing folder too!  

    Measurements:

    • Garden Green card base 5 1/2" X 4 1/4"
    • Very Vanilla 5 3/8" X 4 1/8" 
    • Real Red 4 1/2" X 10 3/4" scored at 3/4", 4" and 7 1/4" 
    • Poinsettia Place DSP 4 1/4" X 3" 

    Stop back again for more Fun Fold cards!  I have lots more to share!

  • Feels Like Frost Fun Fold card


    Check out this beautiful fun fold card made by Annette for our Team swap in September!  Our theme was fun fold cards featuring products in the 2020 Holiday catalog.  

    She featured the Feels Like Frost Specialty Designer Series Paper and the Life is Beautiful stamp set.  This design is perfect for designer paper with a scene or large pattern.  

    I like the tag with the pretty Metallic Mesh ribbon.  That ribbon is so soft and it's in 1 1/2" wide but can easily be cut in sections without fraying!  

    Measurements:

    • Navy card – 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored at 1 1/2" & 4 1/4", tag is 1 1/4" X 3 3/4" 
    • Designer paper from left to right – 5 1/4" X 2 3/4", 5 1/4" X 1 1/8" and lastly on the right is 5 1/4" X 2"
    • Whisper White 5 1/5" X 1 3/4", tag is 1" X 3" 

    More Flowerbug Team swaps next week!

  • Christmas Cards kit to go; all Fun-fold cards! Opt in by the 20th!


    Yesterday I shared the Plaid Tidings cards kit and today I'm sharing my 2nd cards kit to go (I cannot seem to do just one; there's too many fabulous products!).

    I chose to feature the Heartwarming Hugs designer series paper seen below.  It includes a variety of tiny patterns of plaid, stripes, dots, and more in traditional Red's and Green's. I especially like the gingham and stripes.  Oh and the polka dots too!  

    Look at these cards!  Each one is a unique fun-fold card which is a delight for the recipient.  They're creative & fun but not too difficult for a non-stamper to figure out either.  They include latch folds, pocket, flip, easel cards & more!

    This pre-cut kit includes $20 in current Stampin' Up! product, all for just $28! Yes; you're getting the 10 cards for just a few dollars when you add in tax & shipping. 

    In your kit to go you'll receive:

    • 1/2 package of Heartwarming Hugs Designer Series Paper (6" X 12")
    • 3/8" Red double stitched satin ribbon
    • Red Rhinestone jewels
    • the free pdf tutorial for all 10 cards (valued at $15)

    This pdf written tutorial is available separately at my Tutorial shop here.  It includes step by step directions, measurements, a supplies list and photos.  

    I used the Wrapped in Christmas stamp set on all 10 cards; it's a fabulous holiday set and coordinates with the Warm Wrap dies.  

    I have two card kits available in October.  You can see the other option here.
