Get multiple cards from one sheet of Designer Paper! Video & free project sheet too.

I shared these beautiful cards on a Live video a few weeks ago. I wanted to make the most of one of my favorite sheets of the Valley in Bloom designer series paper. It’s discounted through August!

You can get more cards than I show above but I mistakenly cut in the wrong place and missed out on more. This pack of Valley in Bloom DSP has many beautiful sheets in it. Get some while it’s on sale.

I recommend cutting the 12 X 12″ sheet into 6 pieces at 3 1/2″ X 4 3/4″. The two center pieces won’t have as much greenery on them but you could change the layout up a bit to reflect that.

My colors include Pretty Peacock with Old Olive & White. I used a variety of punches for my greetings; mostly from my stash of White elements.

The card bases are 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ scored at 2 1/8″ & 4 1/4″. I made sure the Olive layer was small enough that the White inside piece shows as an inside layer. You can see the free project sheet with measurements, photos and supplies when you click here.

I stamped the inside of the cards with the Lily of the Valley stamp set and colored the flowers in with a Blender pen. I love this bundle so much. You can see it here.

• Cheerful Daisies card; perfect for Springtime!

  May 17, 2023

  I'm excited to share this pretty card with you. We made it at my May card clubs. It features the Cheerful Daisy bundle.

  I absolutely love the colors!  I chose Lemon Lolly, Garden Green, white and the new Azure Afternoon.  I think the blue washed layer from the Fresh as a Daisy designer paper shows off the white & yellow daisies perfectly.  

  Here's how we finished the inside:

  I sponged extra yellow on the Lemon Lolly daisy centers before adding the White die-cut over them. Here's  a photo of the dies  display I made: I did not add the separate individual daisies that fir over the large yellow die-cut below.  On my card they're white.

  The ribbon wraps all around the card front and ties on the far left.  The greeting covers the knot so you see mostly the ends.

  Check out that amazing, detailed greenery die-cut!  It even comes out of the die easily.  Love it!

• Quick cards with just ONE sheet of the Fresh as a Daisy designer paper!

  May 16, 2023

  The Fresh as a Daisy designer paper seen here is filled with pretty daisy prints and soft washes of colors – many are our newest In Colors and Core colors! 

  Here are the 4 cards I made from just one sheet!

  This one sheet has a bunch of printed, blocked patterns ready to make fast cards with.

  One of my favorites is this one; featuring a pretty bouquet of white daisies on our new Bubble Bath pink color. 

  I added a strip of White card stock below, ribbon, a greeting and a pretty foliage die-cut which are both from the Cheerful Daisies bundle.

  I LOVE this one!  Again, white daisies on a washed background. I paired this piece over a strip of Early Espresso cardstock on a Lemon Lolly card base.  I heat embossed the greeting in White on the die-cut in the Cheerful Daisies bundle. White twine finished it off!

  What a gorgeous scenic background this is!  I dd nothing to it but stamp the stems & leaves and added the die-cut daisies, greeting and gems.  The colors are Copper Clay with Crushed Curry.

  Lastly is this pretty triple-panel card in Azure Afternoon with Copper Clay.  I cut the daisy panel into three pieces measuring  1 5/8" X 4" tall. 

  Again I heat embossed the greeting in White embossing powder onto a piece of Copper Clay card stock. I added a die-cut daisy to the side.

• Clever & Amazing interactive triple-tier cake card with video tutorial!

  May 15, 2023

  This card might look like an ordinary card with a layered cake on front but it's not!

  Each layer opens up to reveal more inside! Click on the very short video below to see it in action!

  The Bright & Beautiful designer paper is new in Stampin' Up!'s annual catalog.  It's filled with fun and colorful patterns in many of our new core colors.  Love this paper!

  If you've followed me for awhile you know I like to create interesting fun fold cards. I saw something like this card online and knew my stampers would like to see it.  

  I cut strips or pieces of the Bright & Beautiful designer paper into sizes that would make a nicely layered cake.  Each piece is folded in half. Once you open them there's an inside message on each layer.  So cool! 

  And the best thing is that the middle star die-cut hold the lower flap closed which then holds each layer closed.

  I have enjoyed playing with the Beautiful Balloons bundle this month.  You cannot go wrong with balloons; they're great for birthday's, graduations, weddings or any celebratory event.
