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!

  • Beautiful Online Exclusive card swaps


    We held our monthly Team Gathering and our swap theme was to feature Online Exclusive products.  Honestly our current line of OE products is amazing. Did you know there are over 90 items?  Be sure to check them out here.  

    Joan made this first one with the In My Heart stamp set seen here. 

    Her coloring is amazing! I believe she used Blends markers for the scene. She used two sizes of the Deckled Circles and her background is made with the Foursquare decorative masks seen here. She used a Blending Brush with Orchid Oasis ink to create that gorgeous, striking background. Her colors are Orchid Oasis & Sweet Sorbet – both of these In Colors are retiring in early April! 

    Here's how she finished the inside: 

    Next is a stunning card made by Tracey. She chose the Courage & Faith stamp set in the Annual catalog; see it here.

    I just love how this layout shows off the pretty Meandering Meadows designer paper! 

    Measurements: Each of the designer paper pieces are 2 1/2" X 1 1/4". This allows you to make two cards with each 6 X 6" piece of DSP.  The greeting is stamped on a the Scalloped Contours diecut seen here.  

    Next is a wonderful card perfect for either guys or gals. It features the Trucking Along bundle seen here. 

    I love the stamped and textured background! She also used the Deckled Circles (in low inventory) and the Basics 3D embossing folders – both can be seen in our Online Exclusive line here.    The greeting die-cut is from the Perennial Postage dies

    Stay tuned for more swaps tomorrow!
