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.  

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. 

Below is the video for all 10 'stripper' card ideas using leftover strips of paper!

  • Pretty Detailed Dogwood card swaps


    Today I'm sharing a few swaps I received featuring the new Detailed Dogwood stamp set – one of the choices in the 2024 Sale-a-Bration catalog. 

    Trayce Bauer made this stunning card using Bubble Bath, Granny Apple Green and Mossy Meadow.

    She fussy cut the flowers out and added them to the Bubble Bath layer that has been embossed using the Softly Sophisticated embossing folder – also from our Sale-a-Bration selection.

    I love how she added the dotted image to create a background on both the white layer and the greeting! The greeting die is from the Thoughtful Expressions dies.  

    Below is a photo of the stamp set.  See it here online.

    It's free with a $100 purchase from Stampin' Up! through February 29th when Sale-a-Bration ends.  

    Next is a gorgeous card made by Angie Leach. 

    She used a beautiful set of neutral colors – Pebbled Path, Wild Wheat, Mossy Meadow and Copper Clay. The large white die is from the Postage dies. Wow!

    I love the layout. Adding a few strips below your main focal point adds balance and interest and ties the colors together too.

    This last card is also a swap I received but I cannot give credit to the creator as there wasn't a name on it. 

    Her colors of Black, Real Red and White are stunning! Note the simple stamped background on the large White layer, mimicking the main floral image.  That dragonfly is such a neat image. It does not coordinate with our Dragonfly punch unfortunately.

  • 2 card ideas with Cradled in Love – a sweet set that’s free during Sale-a-Bration


    One of the free stamp set choices in the Sale-a-Bration catalog is the Cradled in Love set.  A sweet group of stamps perfect for baby cards.  See this stamp set here. 

    Here's a quick card I created for my Open House boards: 

    My colors include Flirty Flamingo, White & Smoky Slate.  That large die-cut is from our new Perennial Postage dies seen here. 


    I paired it with the new Most Adored specialty designer paper – another free option during Sale-a-Bration this year. I added a 2" wide strip under the main element diagonally. 

    Both the stamp set and paper are available through February or while supplies last.  See this pretty paper here.  It's filled with gold foil designs on one side and Flirty Flamingo & Real Red on the other. 

    This photo does not show it well at all.  The colors are rich and gorgeous!

    Below is a super cute swap card I received from my friend Amy Storrie.  

    She used the Lighter Than Air designer paper, Highland Heather, Lemon Lolly, Gray and White. That adorable scalloped border from the Basic Borders dies adds so much!  I just love it!
