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!

  • Life is Beautiful card; made from scraps


    Have you ever made a card from the scraps on your work space?  Or maybe you've been inspired by one as a starting point?  Every piece of this card was a scrap! 

    The stamped & layered main image was leftover from a project I was making but didn't like the shape for it.  So it sat in a pile for weeks. 

    The tree & greeting are stamped in Navy ink.  The snowflakes are stamped in Pool Party & Highland Heather. I added a few Snowflake Sequins too.  You can see them here.  They're 50% off right now; while supplies last.  They are perfect for shaker cards too. 

    The Highland Heather rectangles and the Navy strip were in my bag of scraps and the ribbon was an extra too!  Easy peasy! 

    I will sure miss playing with this stamp set when it retires on January 4th.  I'm so sad it's going away!  If you don't have it yet; I hope you order it before it's gone.  Click here to see it in my store; it's just $17! 

    Measurements:

    • Pool Party card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
    • White 3" X 3 5/8"
    • Navy 3 1/8" X 3 3/4", 3/4" X 5 1/2" strip
    • Highland Heather 2 1/2" X 3 1/2" pieces

    Tomorrow's Facebook Live will feature 2 fun fold cards using this stamp set. Tune in here at 11 am Central Time.
