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

August 24, 2026

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.

You can see the video for this card and one more below. Don’t forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel!

Ornate Garden; simply done

April 3, 2020

Today I have another card featuring the new Ornate Garden products; the new early release from the upcoming 2020 Annual Catalog. You can see all of it here.

For this card I chose to use the Ornate Border dies for the pretty edge. The greeting is from the Ornate Thanks set and the embossed daisy is from the Ornate Style stamp set.

Save

You might see a little halo around the right daisy…. I first stamped it in Terracotta Tile, but it didn't show up well enough. So I tried to stamp again to heat emboss it in White. I was off a bit but I'm okay with it anyway. The stitched oval is a die from the Stitched Shapes dies.

I made a bunch of these for a swap last month; it's a pretty easy card with just a few special 'extras'.

Stamp with me! Tonight: Thursday, April 2nd at 8 pm on Facebook Live

April 2, 2020
Sadly, my April events are all cancelled due to the current pandemic. I haven't had a month without seeing my stamping friends in many, many years! We're having virtual clubs instead this month but it just won't be the same!

I know many of you are in the same situation so I decided to do a weekly 'Stamp with Me' Facebook Live on Thursdays at 8 pm CDT. It's a virtual stamping class. Join me Thursday night, April 2nd here on my FB page.

Save

We'll be making these 3 cards plus a bonus technique I'll demonstrate. Remember you don't have to use these exact products! You can easily substitute other paper, stamps etc.

If you don't have the Magnolia Lane designer paper you can use any other paper you own instead. It will be fun to see what everyone uses; we'll share our projects with each other afterwards.

- Designer Paper – two designs cut at 4" square. Cut one on the diagonal in half. For the other, make a mark at 1 1/4" from the upper right and also from the lower left.
- Good Morning Magnolia stamp set
Extras: (it might look like a long list; but it's mostly accessories)
- Black Memento & Petal Pink inks
- Blends markers – Petal Pink, Light Mossy Meadow
- one large oval die-cut (largest Stitched Shape oval die or cut a rectangle at 2 1/2" X 3 1/2")
