The last of my 10 amazing card ideas for Paper Strips!

Today I'm sharing the last of the 10 cards I made on my 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.  We're calling them 'Stripper Cards'!

Here's a favorite I made with 3/4" X 3 3/4" strips of Bermuda Bay, Pool Party & Pumpkin Pie.  

Paper Strips Zig Zag Save

I started out with a 4" X 5 1/4" piece of White CS.  Starting at the bottom I added a strip and alternated colors and directions each time.  I focused on keeping the tips at the same area and left the excess 'wide' end hang over the edge.  

I had to leave enough space to stamp the greeting (You Are Amazing set seen here) so I stopped about 1 1/2" up.  The last piece may need to be trimmed before you add that skinny little edge strip.  A few Holiday rhinestones finish it off. 

On my video (scroll down) I used Real Red with the Pool Party & Bermuda Bay.  Which do you prefer?

This is another of my favorites!  So easy and just plain fun!

I cut random lengths of 1/4" strips and adhered them to a 4" X 5 1/4" piece of Black card stock. The greeting is from the Sweet Ice Cream set stamped on a 1" X 4 3/4" strip of White CS.  Add this and trim the ends off before you add it to the main Coastal Cabana card base.  

Here are both versions; which do you prefer?

  • Left features Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay, Crushed Curry & Pumpkin Pie.

  • Leaves of Holly card with a gift card option & video

    We made this pretty Christmas card at my November Card Clubs.  It features the Leaves of Holly bundle seen here. 

    Leaves of Holly Nov Save

    I chose these colors – Evening Evergreen, Real Red, White & Soft Succulent.  I sure love the dies in this set; the greeting label with the attached holly leaves is special. 

    *Unfortunately the Holly Berry dies are unavailable right now; they expect they'll be back in stock around December 19th.  

    LEAVES OF HOLLY BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    I think this is a classic Christmas bundle you'd find yourself using often.  It's retiring on December 1st and while supplies last. 

    I gave my gals a choice of 'berry' options.  On the left card below we added two die-cuts from the bundle.  On the right card we added a Textural Element that is colored with Blends markers.  It was almost a tie on which option they chose.  

    Leaves of Holly Nov Save

    I stamped the two more open leave images 2-3 times each in the two green colors and added the greeting element over them.  You can see how in the video below.  It's actually an easy card to make. 

    Leaves of Holly Nov Save

    If you want to add an easy gift card option to any card simply add a strip of DSP across the bottom of the inside. Punch the center with any circle or decorative punch and aAttach it with glue on the outer and lower edges only.

  • ‘Ornament’ Christmas cards for quick & easy card making!

    We're making ornament cards on tonight's Stamp with Me Live.  It's a quick & easy idea for your Christmas cards!

    The designer paper is the Santa Express seen here.  It's filled with lots of great patterns; not just Santas & trains.  

    Join me here Live at 7:30 pm CT.  The video will be on my YouTube channel by Tuesday, November 29th too. 

    I chose an 'easy' card so those who feel rushed in getting their Christmas cards made. Plus these cards use your DSP and an embossing folder too; both make a card special. 
     
    I added a Wonderful Snowflake to the designer paper circle for a quick, beautiful iridescent element.  These snowflakes will be well discounted on Thursday with the Last Chance List seen here: Download 2022 Holiday Catalog Last Chance
     
    The greeting is from the Joyful Flurry stamp set. 
     
    Join me here when I share some tips on making these fun and easy cards tonight. 
     
    Gather these supplies:
    • Card bases 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • White or neutral background layer 3 3/4" X 5", will be textured
    • Another layer 4" X 5 1/4"
    • 'ornament' circles cut from DSP – mine are almost 3" around
    • Silver or gold paper (or other) for the top of the ornament
    • Twine or thin ribbon
    Other items: Greeting stamps, ink, embossing folder, snowflakes
     
    I made one card into an easy fun fold by folding the front of the card base back on itself. For this one I chose to add greetings from the Holly Jolly Wishes stamp set.

    The card base is Mint Macaron with White & Poppy Parade accents.
