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!

  • Waves of Inspiration scene with masking & blending techniques


    I made this card for an online swap I participated in last month.  When I create for a swap I tend to make a few different cards and decide which one I'll use for the swap.  Well once I made this one the decision was made!  

    Although after stamping, masking, blending and sponging over 20 cards I was regretting my decision! But I am proud of it so it was worth my efforts.  

    This card is part of my Waves of Inspiration kit to go this month.  I share how to make it in the video and it's also part of the pre-cut kit to go as well. 

    If you're interested in it please message me here by March 17th.

  • Need cute but easy Scrapbook ideas? I’ve got you covered!


    It's been awhile since I created scrapbook pages.  I actually started out with scrapbooking before stamping.  

    I know some of my customers have been waiting for me to create a new bunch of scrapbook layouts.  I thought the Pattern Party host designer paper was a perfect starting point.  Then I added elements from the What a Year Memories & More card pack.  Perfect match up!  Look: 

    There are 6 fun, colorful double scrapbook layouts in this kit to go. (the white photo mats are where you photos will be) 

    Each layout includes two 12 X 12 pages featuring a variety of celebratory occasions.  You have a choice of the PDF tutorial or a pre-cut kit to go. 

    Here's one of the striking layouts. 


    Pre-order this kit by March 17th and it will be mailed out at the end of March.  The PDF tutorial is sent in an email immediately after payment. 


    The kit to go includes the following:

    • 6 double layouts (12 pages) with pre-cut and punched pieces
    • What a Year Memories & More card pack.  You'll use these cards for titles, layers and other elements on your page layouts. 
    • the PDF tutorial includes photos, measurements, supplies list and tips on assembly

    Wait; you can add one or both of my other kits to go this month.  I have the Flowering Fields cards or the Waves of Inspiration cards. *see them below.

  • New Horizons scenic cards; a sure ‘wow’!


    I've been sharing cards made on a recent Facebook Live featuring the New Horizons suite this week.  You just cannot go wrong with these products!  Each Tuesday at 11 am CT I host a FB live. Follow me on FB here so you don't miss anything. 

    Today's cards feature the On the Horizon bundle along with the beautiful New Horizon designer paper.  Luckily this paper is in stock! 

    The only stamping on this card is the birds. I inked in Misty Moonlight ink and stamped off once before stamping on the designer paper scene.  The paper provides the gorgeous background.

    The card base is Garden Green 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" scored in half at 4 1/4".  The designer paper is 5 1/4" X 4".

    The fence, grass, layered mountains and 'green hills' are all die-cut using the Horizon dies.  These dies are currently unavailable but they should be back in stock next week.  The 'blue' mountain was cut from a leftover strip of the designer paper and the detailed mountain was cut from White CS. 

    I decided to try a vertical card as well using this same sheet of New Horizons Designer Paper.  This time the card base is Blackberry Bliss cut at 4 1/4" X 11".  There are so many colors in this paper; many will work easily. 

    Details for both cards:

    • See the On the Horizon's bundle here.
    • The New Horizon's designer series paper is seen here. 
    • the pebbles enamel shapes are also currently unavailable. They should be back in stock later in March.  
    • The fence, grass, mountains, hills are all from the Horizon dies.
