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 meets Snowflake Splendor for a beautiful winter card


    I created this card for a recent FB Live.  I was asked to share ideas and samples with my Life is Beautiful stamp set for a private Demonstrator only Facebook group.  What an honor it is to be asked!  

    Here's one of the cards I made.  I'll share more next week!

    I stamped directly onto pieces of the Snowflake Splendor designer paper.  Did you know it's on sale this month?  Check out all 15 packs of paper on sale here.

  • Snowflake Wishes Fun Fold card; easy but beautiful!


    Here's another pretty fun fold card with the Snowflake Wishes suite of products.  Marilyn made this beauty. 

    It's a side fold card which is super easy to do!

    She used the Stitched Rectangle dies for her front layers, the Snowflake Splendor designer paper on the left and the Snowflake Wishes bundle for the stamps & die-cuts.   Note the pretty Glimmer snowflake!  Our Balmy Blue Glimmer paper is gorgeous! 

    She used Pacific Point ink on the greeting and the faint snowflakes in the background were done by stamping off a few times to get a lighter hue. 

    Measurements: 

    • Balmy Blue 4 1/4" X 8 1/4" scored at 5 1/2", stitched rectangle die-cut is 3" X 4 1/4"
    • Whisper White inside 4" X 5 1/4", stitched rectangle die-cut is 2 5/8" X 4"
    • Snowflake Splendor DSP 2 1/2" X 4"

    Look at this amazing fun fold card Tracey made for our Flowerbug's Team swap last month.  Incredibly beautiful! 

    This card is over the top gorgeous!  The Navy snowflakes are die-cut with the Snowflake Wishes bundle here and she also used the Snowflake Splendor designer paper here; it's on sale this month!!

    This fancy fold card is for those crafters who don't mind scoring and cutting with multiple measurements!  You can see her template below and one I found online to show scoring areas.  

    Here's the inside view: 

    • The Navy greeting piece is 3/4" X 4 1/8".
    • The center DSP is 4 1/4" X 2", the center Navy is 2 1/8" X 4 3/8"
    • The DSP side pieces are 3/4" X 4 1/4", the Navy side pieces are 7/8" X 4 3/8" 

    Here is her template.  It's called a Center Step card and measures 4 1/4" X 11". 

    Outside score lines are at 1", 2" and 6 1/2". The center score line is at 5 1/2" .
