More Specialty Paper Team swaps with measurements!

March 5, 2026

Here are a few more team swaps featuring Stampin’ Up!’s specialty papers:

First up today is Tracey’s card who used the fractured technique.

This technique starts with a large piece of designer paper. Then add the diagonal square layer. Next you simply start adding the thin strips of DSP around the edges of the square piece; trimming off the excess on the outer edges. So easy!

She chose the Lovely & Beautiful DSP for the main piece and the strips are the Season of Elegance specialty DSP found in the Annual Catalog.
The greeting is from Blessed Beginnings stamp set. I love the thin layer of gold on the outer edge!

Measurements:

Olive card base 5 1/2″ X 8 1/2″ score at 4 1/4″
Gold layer 5 1/8″ X 3 7/8″
DSP is 3 3/4″ X 5″, inside DSP 5 1/4″ X 4″
thin DSP strips are 1/4″ thick.
White square is1 7/8″, inside is 5″ X 3 3/4″

The inside greeting is from Prayers & Promises, the flower and leaves are from the Simply Beautiful stamp set.

Next is a pretty card made by Marla who also used the Season of Elegance DSP.

The main circle dies are from the brand new Springtime Scenes bundle which is currently out of stock. The greeting circle is from the Spotlight on Nature dies.
Her colors are Blackberry Bliss, Crushed Curry & Basic Beige.

Card base is 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″. DSP is 4″ X 5 1/4″

More swaps are coming tomorrow!

Colorful swap cards with Pattern Party hostess paper

July 20, 2021

This weekend we held our monthly Flowerbug's Team swap and the theme was to make cards with yellow. It could be a lot, or just a little. We thought it was a great 'summertime theme'. I'm so proud of their cards; they are all quite talented!

This first card was made by Barb. She used the Back on Your Feet stamp set, the Basic Border & Meadow dies.

Save

I just love how she colored the giraffe the same colors as her designer paper! What a well coordinated card! I believe she used our amazing Blends markers for coloring. And look at her inside! She used the extra die-cut edges to decorate the inside to match!

Save

Next is Mary's card featuring the same Pattern Party designer paper. You can only get this paper with hostess rewards. You can see it on page171 of the annual catalog; or click here.

She used the Tailor Made Tags and the Biggest Wish stamp set. She also colored her clear rhinestones with a Blends marker before adding them to the tag.

I'll share more of our swap cards tomorrow!
