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'! 

March paper strips Save

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.

  • Beautiful fall swap cards by my Team!

    This week I'm sharing the incredible swaps my Flowerbug's Team created for our September swap event.  Each month our group has an optional swap event that anyone on my Team can join.  This time it was fall or Halloween themed.

    She die-cut the large die from Early Espresso card stock and added a few die-cut leaves, also from the Aspen Tree dies set.  The 'Hello' is from the Hello Harvest stamp set, stamped on a white stitched rectangle die-cut.  

    Her amazing background is done with our Blending Brushes; it's a beautiful way to create a striking horizon for this die.

    I have two more fabulous swap cards to share with you from our September Team swaps.  My Flowerbug's are so talented and creative. 

    Paula made a Waterfall card!  These are not difficult but a bit intimidating maybe….  I shared a FB Live video here on how to make one.  

    She featured the Scary Cute bundle seen here as well as the Black & White designs DSP here.  The colors are Black, White & Gorgeous Grape.

    She also used the Blossoming Happiness dies for her bottom border so she'd have a spot to add the Orchid Oasis 1/8" metallic ribbon for the pull.  

    Sept Paula SC Save

    • Black card 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
    • Basic Gray strip 5 1/2" X 1 1/4", waterfall strip is 2 1/2" X 10" scored at 5 1/4", 6", 6 3/4" & 7 1/2"
