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!

  • Easiest Shaker card you’ll ever make!


    Giving an interactive card makes the card extra special like shakers, spinners or fun folds.  But they can be time consuming or a lot of work.  

    I used the free 'A Touch of Ink' stamp set from the Sale-a-Bration catalog.  You can see it here.  That background was made with our Blending Brushes and Bermuda Bay & Calypso Coral ink.

    This type of shaker card is truly easy; really!  Besides the stamped element you need three basic things:

    1.  A clear envelope
    2. Strong adhesive
    3. Sequins, beads or tiny punched pieces

    Insert your stamped card stock into the clear envelope, fold the excess envelope over to the back and seal with adhesive leaving one end open.  Add your fun filler and seal closed.  

    The pretty sequins in this card are the Woven Threads sequins in the annual catalog on page 157.

    I made a video in December on making one of these shaker cards.  Even though it's a Christmas card it's the same technique. Here it is:

  • Easy Fun Fold card! Stamp with Me tonight on FB Live


    Tonight at 7:30 pm I'm making these easy fun fold cards on Facebook Live!  Join me and create right along with me.  Click here to join me on my FB page. 

    I used the Paper Blooms DSP, Stitched in Whimsy & In Bloom bundle in Night of Navy & White. This pretty designer paper is free with any $50 order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion.  See it here. 

    See that neat stitching on the inside of the card?  That's my new favorite 'Stitched with Whimsy' dies; seen here. 

    I used both the dies and the stamp set on my front panels.  I also stamped the greeting on the inside layer on the bottom left card.  

    You can see this neat In Bloom bundle here.  Look at these dies!  Love the stitching!


    Measurements:
    Main card 4 1/4" X 7 1/2" scored at 5 1/2" *save the extra piece for the front layer ( 3 1/2" X 2 3/4"
    White 4" X 5 1/4", 3 1/4" X 2 1/2"
    DSP 1 3/4” X 4”.
     
    The neat thing about this card is that you can use what you cut off of the main card as your layer on the front flap.  Love that! 
     
     
    I hope to see you tonight here on Facebook!

  • Don’t miss out on our best deal!


    I want to ask you 3 questions:

    1. Do you have a long wish list of Stampin' Up! products?
    2. Have you ever wished you could get all of your Stampin' Up! products on sale?
    3. Have you wanted to see the new catalogs early?  And order products early too?!

    If you answered yes to any of the above I hope you'll tune in to my Facebook Live on Tuesday evening.  I am going to go over the truths & myths of becoming a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.  I'm also sharing how I got started.

    Here's a link to the event.  Opt in and you'll get notified when I'm on. 

    For those of you not on Facebook, I'll upload it to YouTube on Wednesday here. 


    I asked my Flowerbug's to share their 'why' and it was so neat to hear their responses!  They are so happy they made the decision; I've never had anyone tell me they regretted it.  Ever!

    Some have been with me more than 10 years and never held a class!  And that's okay! A few have had some classes to help them meet their minimums and a few hold regular events.

    Here are their most popular reasons:

    1. They love the discount of 20% or more on all their purchases.
    2. They're enjoying being a part of something so upbeat and rewarding, making friends online and in person.
    3. They don't want to give up the Stampin' Up! online community. There are numerous, exclusive websites they have access to with tons of inspiration not seen anywhere else. 
    4. They really love getting their catalogs early and ordering from them before anyone else. 

    Fact: You get $125 of product of your choice, 5 packs of 6×6 DSP ($57.50), free Past Paper Pumpkin ($21), no shipping on any of this ($20.35). So instead of $223.85… you pay just $99?! What? 

    The Starter Kit is always 25% off but during Sale-a-Bration it's an even better deal with the extra 5 packs of Designer paper you get free; a value of $57!  


    Remember the Starter kit is only $99 and you can choose up to $125 in product of your choice.  You get free shipping, a free Paper Pumpkin kit and lots of catalogs & business supplies.  Go here to get yours!
