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.

  • Need a quick gift box for the Holidays? Use your designer paper!!

    Are you a last minute wrapper?  I can help! I made these fast gift boxes on this week's FB Live.  Honestly they are super easy and you can make them wide or tall depending on where you score. 

    Toile Tidings boxes Save

    Each one is made from 2 pieces of 12 X 12" designer paper; these are from Toile Tidings which is now discontinued and out of stock.   Double sided paper is preferred and makes them extra special.  I used the same patterns for each box; flipping the pattern so they coordinated. 

    I know some of you might think it's frivolous to use your designer paper for gift boxes.  Now consider how much DSP you have stored up!  Use it; you can do it!

  • Quite Curvy & Classic Christmas Strips

    I totally enjoy making these strip cards!  It seems like I always have little strips of paper left over from a project. Most times I can toss them without a thought but now & then I have trouble doing that. This technique puts them to great use!

    You can catch my tips on this technique in the video below. 

    I used the Classic Christmas designer paper on this card.  It's available now through January 4th or while supplies last.  The colors are Shaded Spruce, Sahara Sand & Cherry Cobbler.  See it here. 

    I also used the Quite Curvy stamp set and dies.  They are available now and will be in the upcoming 2021 Spring Catalog.  See them here now.
