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.

  • Glimmer Paper meets the Slim Card dies for a big WOW!

    I hope you're not tired of the Slim line cards I've been sharing this week.  I've been having a lot of fun making them with the Slim Card dies and the Slim Saying stamp set.  

    I shared these striking cards on FB Live Tuesday: 

    Slim Saying cards FB Live Save

    I wanted to use the new 2022-24 In Color glimmer paper, I knew it would show off it's ombre' effect nicely with the Slim Card dies.  I chose to use the 2 in colors of Parakeet Party with Starry Sky.  

    The Slim Sayings bundle is retiring this month and available while supplies last.  BUT the Slim Card dies are on sale now at 50% off!  See them here.  It's a better deal to get the Slim Card dies separately from the Slim Sayings stamp set even though they are available in a bundle.

    Measurements:

    • Card base 8 1/2" X 7 1/4" scored at 3 5/8"
    • White layer for the die-cut 3 1/2" X 8 1/2"

    I had to cut the colored glimmer paper twice since it's in 6 X 6" size and the die is about 8 1/2" long.  I also used the Picture This dies for the greeting label and the Starlit punch for the glimmer stars; also punched from the In Color Glimmer paper.  

    I saved the outside pieces from the chevron glimmer paper and made this card:

    I just couldn't throw it away and decided it could be used for a second card.  I adhered the two colored pieces to a piece of White card stock and trimmed off the excess before adding it to a card base of Orchid Oasis.

    This stamp set is on the Last Chance list and is on sale at just $12.60 instead of $18.

  • Slim Sayings bundle is so versatile!

    Here are a few more samples featuring the Slimline Sayings bundle that is retiring this month.  See yesterday's cards here. 

    This first card features the Hues of Happiness designer paper. 

    Slim Sayings Hues of Happiness Save

    The pretty ombre design in the Hues of Happiness DSP is beautiful with the beautiful die-cut design.  I used the Tailor Made Tags for my greeting layers and stamped the 'one' on a piece of So Saffron to make it pop. 

    Here's the Slim Sayings stamp set; I love this greeting set so much. The variety of fonts and occasions are so versatile.

    The card on the right below is simply three colors of card stock – Navy, Soft Succulent and Just Jade.  I cut out one in each color to be able to make 3 cards!  Just mix & match to fill in the center with the chevron pieces. 

    Measurements:

    • Card base 8 1/2" X 7 1/4" scored at 3 5/8"
    • die-cut 3 1/2" X 8 1/2"
