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.

  • Pretty Soft Seedlings card & video; an easy fun fold layout

    I've sure been enjoying the Soft Seedlings stamp set.  The pretty maple leaf has so much texture and depth and the greetings are some of my favorites. I think I've used it more than any set in the Holiday catalog! 

    SOFT SEEDLINGS CLING STAMP SET (ENGLISH) Save

     We just purchased a red maple tree and planted it in our backyard this weekend.  It's red foliage is beautiful! 

    For this card I chose to stamp the leaves in two colors – Soft Suede & Coastal Cabana.  I know they're not correct leaf colors, but it's fun to go outside the box at times.

    It's one of my favorite fun folds; so easy to do and it can be jazzed up easily with elements & greetings.  

    I chose to stamp directly on one of the Leaf Label elements in the Leaf Label & Amber gem combo pack seen here.  Unfortunately they are out of stock right now; but it will be available again in November. 

    LEAF LABEL & AMBER GEM COMBO PACK Save

    The package includes 25 leaves and amber gems too; all for $8. They're so fun to play with; you can add texture, or stamp or sponge color on them.

    It might be hard to see the measurements in the photo above.  Here they are again: 

    • Card base 4 ¼” X 5 ½”
    • Soft Suede 3 ¼” X 11” scored at 5 ½”
    • Vanilla 3” X 5 ¼” (2 pieces)

    Here's a photo of the inside.  I kept is simple since I'll use it as a thank you card.

  • Quick cards with the Stack & Cut template! Video & measurements too!

    I featured the Stack & Cut template for this project from last week's Stamp Camp class.  Scroll down to see the template; it's one of my favorite ways to use designer paper and for quick cards too!  

    Retreat fall thank you Save

    I chose to feature the Celebrate Everything designer paper for a colorful thank you card.  Here are the products I used: 

    • Greetings are from the Charming Sentiments stamp set
    • Leaves are from the Simply Fabulous stamp set
    • The white die-cut is from the Painted Label dies. The Poppy Parade circle is 2 1/4"

    Retreat fall thank you Save

    And here is the template.  Remember that you can use just one piece of DSP for one card; or stack two pieces and get 2 cards.  This works best with double sided designer paper.
