Quadrangle Cards Technique; a great use of your 6 X 6″ Designer Paper!


Check out this great template where you cut a 6 X 6" piece of Designer Paper into 4 pieces for 4 cards.  I also layered it with a 6 1/2" piece of card stock for easy borders!  Look!

I created the above cards with a sheet of the beautiful Plaid Tidings 6" DSP from the 2020 Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog.  I also used the Celebrate Sunflowers bundle and the two Daisy punches in the annual catalog.  Super easy cards! 

The colors are Mango Melody, Rich Razzleberry and Whisper White.  

Then I used a different sheet of the Plaid Tidings DSP on Facebook Live last week.  I LOVE Black & White with a pop of color so I added Magenta Madness and used the Zany Zebras stamp set seen here.  

Aren't they fun?!  I wasn't sure if I wanted to add any pink to the zebras but I ended up loving it! I colored just a bit on the zebras with the Magenta Madness Blends marker.   

If you're wondering just where this stamp set is, you can find it in the Beginner's Brochure or click here to see it online. 

Below is my template for the Designer Paper. 

Next you'll see how you can place the DSP pieces onto a piece of 6 1/2" square piece of card stock and get nice layers. 

You can see how I did it in the video below.  Remember I host 6 FB Live's a week.  Every Tuesday at 11 am CT and the 2nd & 4th Monday's at 7:30 pm.  Check them out here.   Just click on 'more' and then 'videos'. 

Tip: If you have trouble measuring things I suggest that once you have a template for both the Designer Paper and the layered card stock piece you save one to reuse over and over again.

I hope you like these cards!  Be sure to watch the video below to catch the tips & tricks on using this template. 

Here's the FB Live replay for you.  Enjoy!

  • Tune In Double Diagonal fun fold card with video & free project sheet


    We made this neat card at my June card clubs. It features the Tune In stamp & die bundle 

    My colors include Blueberry Bushel, Gray Granite & White. That plaid designer paper I heat embossed the greeting onto is the Tartan Foil DSP seen here. It's one of our online exclusive products (while supplies last). 

    This bundle is so fun to play with and feels quite retro for many of us.  Check it out here. This neat stamp & die bundle is discounted in June; grab it now while it's on sale! It's an extra 10% off in June – was $41.25 and is now $36.75. A great price for this neat bundle!

    The stamps are fabulous and the dies are over the top!! So much fun creativity you can do with this bundle.

    Here's how the card opens. The left diagonal cut folds under the front vertical flap.  

    Do you see that stamped white background on both the inside Gray Granite and the front Blueberry Bushel layer? That's done with the White Craft ink pad and a stamp in the bundle. 

    There are a ton of layers on this card.  If you'd like to make this fun fold here's the free project sheet you can download and print. Download June Tune In Double Diagonal fold

  • Paper Pumpkin update & bonus project for The Best There Is kit


    Even though I am a seasoned stamper I still enjoy receiving and playing with my Paper Pumpkin kits each month. Sometimes I make the projects as directed and other times I like to change them up. 

    Here's one of my 'change it up' projects from May's The Best There Is' kit. 

    I used the add on dies for the 'thanks' – heat embossing it in White on Early Espresso card stock. I added on a few pieces of the Country Woods designer paper to this fun fold card.  This card was one of the Bonus Projects included in my free tutorial my subscribers received in early June.  

    Below is a peak at the bonus projects I send them each month. They receive at least 9 extra project ideas for the kits they received. 

    Click here to subscribe to receive a kit each month; read below for more details. 

    July's kit should be a pretty one; here's a sneak peak.

    We always get a peak at what's in the next month's kit.  This helps subscribers decide if they want it or if they want to skip that kit.  You always have a choice!  

    They've released a special add on for the next 3 kits as well! These add-ons are available to current PP subscribers. They also get to choose from any other refill kits or available add on items!  

    Here are the benefits & tips for subscribing to Paper Pumpkin kits: 

    A MONTHLY CRAFTING SUBSCRIPTION

    If you’re looking for a fun and simple creative outlet paper crafting might be your best option! It’s fun, creative, and handmade projects bring joy to you and to others. And nothing makes paper crafting as fun, easy, and creative as Paper Pumpkin!

    EVERYTHING YOU NEED IN A CRAFT BOX

    One issue crafters often run into is feeling overwhelmed by their project. Lack of inspiration, proper supplies and crafty know-how might discourage you from even starting a project and unlocking your creative potential!

    This never happens with a craft subscription box from Paper Pumpkin. That’s because everything you need for your project is included in your monthly art box. All you have to do is open it up and get started. You’ll be able to make cards, treat bags, gift boxes and so much more with your monthly art box subscription.

    BUILD YOUR STAMP COLLECTION

    Among the items in each Paper Pumpkin monthly craft kit is a reusable rubber stamp set. So after you’re done creating your monthly craft, you’ll have a valuable stamp to add to your collection. You even get a free clear stamping block with your first craft box. Plus, you get a different color ink pad every month as well.

    PRINT & VIDEO INSTRUCTION MAKE CRAFTING EASY

    Even the craftiest among us worry that we’ll have trouble understanding how to do a project, or that we’ll make a mistake. You never have to worry about that with Paper Pumpkin! That’s because not only does each monthly arts and crafts box come with clear, easy-to-understand printed instructions, but we also upload a video to YouTube so you can watch a professional guide you through the craft.

    KIDS CAN HELP WITH MONTHLY CRAFT KITS

    Although Paper Pumpkin makes craft boxes for adults, they can be fun for the whole family! Use your monthly craft box subscription to introduce your kids to a fun and creative outlet. It’s truly a gift to instill a love of crafting and creativity in kids. You’ll be thrilled to see how their skills grow over time. One day your kids might have their own monthly craft subscription box!
