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.

  • Happy Valentine’s Day! Do you have a favorite??

    Happy Valentine's Day!  

    I shared this on FB last night and hoped you would to pick a favorite too!  I'm curious what the top pink Stampin' Up! color is….

    Favorite Pink Save

    I have a ton of Valentine's swaps I want to share with you too.  Most of these are made by my stamping friends. I cannot give credit to all of them as their post-it or business card was lost as my local customers browsed through them.  

    My friend Susie Wood made this adorable Hello Ladybug card.  She used the Checks & Dots embossing folder on the Red layer.

    This next one features the Nuts & Bolts stamp set & is made by Julie Davison.

    This cute card lost it's post-it so I cannot give credit.  I love how the panels are cut apart but the Sweet Talk designer paper still shows it's pattern.

    This next card was made by Jodi Reinert and features the Love & Happiness bundle seen here.  Love the textures!

    This next card is so cute!!  It was also made by my friend Susie Wood. I love the chalkboard effect of stamping on Black with White Craft ink.  Nuts & Bolts is the stamp set & the Gingham embossing folder was used on the background. 

    Valentines Nuts & Boltz Save

    Lastly is a sweet card made by Jennifer Cotton.  She used the Stitched So Sweetly dies and the Sweet Conversations stamp set.

  • Surprise! There’s an extra FREE stamp set in March’s ‘Beyond the Horizon’ kit!

    Beyond the Horizon PP March Save

    The Beyond the Horizon Paper Pumpkin Kit for March includes watercolor prints and designs inspired by the beautiful nature around us to create nine cards and coordinating envelopes. And paper pieces that perfectly coordinate with the amazing New Horizons Suite Collection seen here in the January–June 2022 Mini Catalog.

    Don’t forget the extra FREE stamp set in March (yes—that’s two stamp sets in one kit!) as our way of saying THANK YOU to all of our wonderful Paper Pumpkin subscribers.

    Details on this kit: 

    • This month’s kit contains enough elements to create 9 cards—3 each of 3 designs—and 9 coordinating envelopes. This all-inclusive kit includes printed card bases, die-cut paper pieces, embellishments, adhesive, and more!
    • The Beyond the Horizon Paper Pumpkin Kit includes a Misty Moonlight Classic Stampin’ Spot!
    • This kit’s stamp set is perfect for any occasion. With sentiments that say “thanks”, “hello”, “thinking of you,” and so many more, you’ll be able to use this stamp set year round.
    • And don't forget; this month’s kit comes with a BONUS stamp set for FREE! *value of $18

    There will be a change in Paper Pumpkin pricing going forward.  Here's what Stampin' Up! has recently stated:

    Despite Covid’s continued strain on the global economy, Stampin’ Up! has been working diligently to maintain the lowest possible price for our Paper Pumpkin subscription box, including absorbing costs to prevent price increases. However, as we continue to see greater cost increases to raw materials, shipping, and overhead, we have made the decision to increase pricing in order to maintain the high quality and value of the monthly kit. On 1 March 2022, Paper Pumpkin kits will see a slight increase in price. 

    But, there is a way to get the current prices for Paper Pumpkin and save money going forward.  Prepaid codes–both redeemed and unredeemed–purchased before the 1 March price change will maintain their full value. No additional payment will be required.

    So here's my suggestion for you:

    Purchase a pre-paid subscription in February for 3 month, 6 months, or 12 months and get it at the current lower price for that entire time period! Go here to order yours.

    Here's the pricing through February:

    Feb PP pricing 2022 Save

    Plus with a pre-paid subscription you can earn free Sale-a-Bration choices at the same time.  It's a WIN WIN choice! 

    And besides the free Sale-a-Bration choice you'll also receive free gifts (Gingham embossing folder & a calendar kit!) from me with your online order in February. See details below. 

    Watch this short video to see what is included in each kit:

    Top reasons to get our Paper Pumpkin kits:

    1. You are in full control over which kits you receive. You can skip a month at any time! 
    2. There are videos for each month's kit!  See them all here. 
    3. You'll get over 10 bonus/alternative projects from me each month!
    4. Each kit comes with an ink spot & a stamp set. 
    5. The kits are all inclusive; nothing else is needed to create the projects but a scissors. 
    6. There are FB groups where people share alternative projects each month. 
    7. The kits are perfect for quick projects with no prep or extra work. 
    8. It's a fun surprise each month!  But they share hints before the kit mails too!

    Here's the bonus project I created with the Hugs & Kisses February kit.  It's so fun to use the elements in the kit to create something fun & different!

  • Great silhouette cards with Simply Marbelous DSP with Honeybee Home bundle

    I saw a group of cards made by France Labrecque and I just had to make some.  Look!

    Honeybee Bloom silhouette with Simply Marbelous Save

    I changed them up a bit but kept the same premise of a die-cut circle with these gorgeous Honeybee Blooms dies in silhouette.  I added a bit of color on the White layer before texturing them.  The card above features the Gingham embossing folder.

    Here are the 6 cards I made; one with each color of Designer Paper in the Simply Marbelous DSP pack.  This beautiful paper is FREE through February, 2022 with any $50 Stampin' Up! order.  See it here. 

    Honeybee Bloom silhouette with Simply Marbelous Save

    I cannot decide which color is my favorite but I lean towards the yellow or blue.

    The embossing folder on the card above is called Macrame; it's in the 2022 Stampin' Up! Annual Catalog or seen here.

    For each card I used one of the greetings in the Honeybee Home stamp set which is part of the Honeybee Home bundle seen here.  The greeting dies are from the Ornate Frames dies in the Annual catalog seen here.

    This incredible Simply Marbelous 6 X 6" DSP is still available; if you want it I'd get it now while they still have a supply.  It's always possible it could run out before the end of February. 

    SIMPLY MARBLEOUS 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 CM) DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save

    One neat thing about this pretty designer paper is each sheet has a softer, less distinct pattern and this beautiful swirly pattern. And each color is a combination of light & dark hues so it works with many, many shades of each color!
