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!

August 24th 4 cards 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.

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.

  • CUTE Pillowbox ‘treat box’ you’ll love!

    I made this cute box using the Pretty Pillow Box dies.  Does it look like a pumpkin to you?  

    Harvest Pillow box Save

    It does use the Pretty Pillow box dies for the flat shape of the front of this box, but the box itself is made from a piece of card stock (see measurements below). I found this idea from fellow demonstrator Lynda Emerson.  As usual I changed it up a bit from hers. 

    Products used:

    Crumb Cake card stock, He’s the Man DSP, strips of Mossy Meadow for apple die trim & for the leaves die-cuts, Pretty Pillow Box dies seen here, Stylish Shapes (for the circle die-cut), Penned Flower & Apple Blossom dies, Stripes & Spatters EF, Linen Thread for the bow, Simply Scored Scoring tool

    The inside of the box would hold quite a few treats; it's a good size!

    Measurements:

    • Crumb Cake 5 ¼” X 7 ¼” scored at 2" on all 4 sides, plus two die-cut pillow box pieces
    • He’s the Man DSP 2 ¼” X 4 ½”

    Here is what the Pretty Pillow box dies look like:

  • Use the stamp in a new way on this card! Hello Harvest projects

    Here's a pretty card I shared on last week's FB live video; it features the Hello Harvest bundle. 

    Hello Harvest lovely day Save

    I cased the idea from my friend Dawn Olchefske; changing it up a bit.  The main floral image is stamped twice (once upside down) and the greeting covers where they meet.  You can see this image in the stamp set below. 

    It might look like there's an entire strip of designer paper under the main card layers.  But it's just a few small pieces of the Rustic Harvest DSP at the top & bottom of the Vanilla card. Check out the Hello Harvest bundle here.  

    HELLO HARVEST BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    I colored the floral image in with Blends markers in Daffodil, Fresh Freesia, Light Old Olive and Calypso Coral.  I also added a bit of color to the pretty greeting banner.  

    Measurements are: 

    • Vanilla 5 ½” X 8 ½”, 3 ½” X 4 ½” & scrap for greeting
    • Espresso 3 5/8” X 4 5/8”
    • DSP is 1” X 2 ¼”

    I made the first card with a Soft Suede card base and then second guessed myself and made the second one in Pumpkin Pie. Which do you prefer?
