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.

Easy idea with your leftover paper strips with Artfully Layered

January 5, 2022

I had a bunch of leftover Just Jade card stock strips I was determined to use. I believe it was from a fun fold card I offered in one of my kits to go. Luckily inspiration struck and I created this neat card for an online swap I participated in. I love it!

Save

I used the new bundle called Artfully Layered stamping the largest leaf multiple times in Just Jade ink. The botanical images, dies and super fun greetings in this bundle were one of my top picks from the new 2022 Jan-June Stampin' Up! catalog. You can see this bundle here.

Save

Each of the strips are 1" X 3 1/4" and they are adhered to a White piece measuring 3 3/4" X 5". I adhered them so they did not match up purposefully. You could also stamp them as shown and place them onto the card in order.

Simply add a greeting and a punch or die-cut. I LOVE when I can use leftovers to create wonderful cards easily.

Save

The greeting die-cut is from the Beautiful Shapes dies seen here. They include circles, hexagons, a few odd shapes & triangles. They're fun, modern & unique!

Swedish Stars in both Shimmer Vellum & Simply Marbelous Designer Paper with easy video tutorial

January 3, 2022

Have you seen some of these fancy folded stars online and thought you could never make them? Well this one is so much easier than it looks and I made them on a FB Live recently.

Save

Honestly they are quite easy. Basically you need a 6 X 6" piece of Designer paper – twelve 1/2" X 6" strips to create them. I did add a medallion in the center but it's not necessary at all. Here I used the brand new Simply Marbelous designer paper from the new Sale-a-Bration catalog. It's available in 6 different colors and absolutely gorgeous!!

Save

I also made a few in our 2021-23 In Color Shimmer seen here & Gold Shimmer vellum seen here. I used snowflakes from the So Many Snowflakes dies in the Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog.
