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

September 4, 2020

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!

Save

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.

Save

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.

Save

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'.

Save

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!

Translucent Florals card made with colored vellum

December 27, 2023
I created this pretty card with the Translucent Florals bundle. I used our vellum card stock and changed it from opaque to Fresh Freesia.

Save

It's really easy to do. Here's how:
1. I cut a good size piece of vellum from the main sheet and laid it onto my grid paper.
2. Then I pressed my open ink pad onto the card stock until it was covered.
3. To smooth the ink out use sponges or a blending brush. Let dry or heat set before die-cutting.
4. Die-cut the flowers, leaves and white centers
Products & measurements:
- Translucent Floral bundle
- White card stock – card base 8 1/2" X 5 1/2" score & fold at 4 1/4"
- Painted Texture embossing folder – white is 3 1/2" X 4 3/4"
- Fresh Freesia card stock 3 7/8" X 4 7/8"
- Granny Apple Green 4 1/4" X 1" strip
- Vellum card stock – a large piece colored with Fresh Freesia ink and a small piece with Granny Apple Green ink
- Blending Brushes
Here's a photo of this pretty bundle. See it here.
