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

April 12, 2021

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.

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.
Right has Coastal Cabana, Bermuda Bay, Granny Apple Green, Pacific Point and Daffodil Delight.

You Are Amazing cards with Blending Brush ideas

February 15, 2021

Last week on my Tuesday Live I shared three cards featuring the You Are Amazing stamp set & the new blending brushes. I've always loved sponging and these new brushes are incredible! They are so popular they are currently on back-order; but you can still order them!

This was my favorite and also loved by many others too. I created a few 'star stencils' with the Stitched Stars dies and sponged in the windows.

I added a few Artistry Blooms sequins for extra bling.

And on this card I sponged on the True Love polka dot paper. It was Black & White but is now two-toned!

I think it's a fun layout and quick too. I decided to use the designer paper from the Boho Indigo product medley. I love these tones of blue!

Welcome cards made with scraps & Field & Flower DSP

February 11, 2021

This week I've been sharing cards made with this beautiful Flower & Field DSP; it's free with any $50 order in February during Sale-a-Bration. See it here.

I created a colorful group of cards for my new Team members last week. I had a bunch of random pieces in the pack of Designer Paper and I decided to challenge myself to use mostly extras & just create!

Save

Look at the fun colors and layouts! I grabbed my bags of scraps and a pile of White CS strips and just played. Have you ever done this?

Save

This Flower & Field DSP (seen here) has so many different color combos in it; all with a Black background. Honestly at first I wasn't sure I liked it. However I love to accent with black; it seems to make a card stand out beautifully. Looking at these cards now I just love i

This Designer Paper is free with any $50 order this month. But it ends February 28th! Plus you never know if they could run out. So don't wait!

Save

If you have a nice size wish list I hope you'll consider purchasing the Stampin' Up! Starter kit. It is such a great deal and no one on my Team has ever regretted it! In fact most say they wish they'd done it sooner!

While I'm very, very grateful for the $100 orders I'm getting I cannot help think that the order could be a Starter Kit purchase! Free shipping and 20% off future orders.

Save

Did you know?

In the Starter kit you get $125 of product of your choice, 5 packs of 6×6 DSP ($57.50), a free past Paper Pumpkin kit ($21) with no shipping on any of this ($20.35).

So instead of $223.85… you pay just $99?! What? Amazing!
