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.

  • 4 Season Easel Calendar with video & free project sheet

    Today I'm sharing a super special 4-season calendar card. I cased one I made 10 years ago!  We made this at my December card clubs. 

    Dec Club calendar 1 Save

    I stamped the background with the Sparkling Snowflakes set in Pool Party & Pretty Peacock inks. 

    It looks like an ordinary card front doesn't it? It actually is with the exception of the latch I added. 

    Dec Club calendar 1 Save

    This latch is slipped under the calendar on the inside of the card. The reason why I choose the inside is so it doesn't show on the bottom.  I hope you'll watch the video here or below to see how it's done.  

    For the Spring season I used the Spotlight on Nature stamp set and colored with Blends markers. 

    Dec Club Calendar 2 Save

    My smart husband created the calendar for this project.  You can access the 2025 calendar here.  And the  2026 Calendar here *However you will need to scale your printer to 90% instead of the usual 100%. *please don't ask me how to do this; each printer is different. 

    For the Summer season I used the Round we Go set in Lemon Lime Twist, Azure Afternoon and Petunia Pop inks.

    See all of my free project sheets here. 

    For the last season I chose to use a layer of designer series paper (Nests of Winter).  In hindsight I could have used DSP on every season.  It would save a ton of time if you're making a bunch at a time.

  • Use both sides of your DSP on this neat ‘back fold’ card; so easy!

    I joined a few online swaps in December so I could get lots of samples for my New Catalog Launch on January 18th. I love to showcase lots of products from the new catalogs each time. 

    This is one I made featuring the Friends of the Ocean DSP: 

    With you in Mind Friends of the Ocean Save

    My colors include Coastal Cabana and Pumpkin Pie.  You cannot tell from the photo above that it's a fun fold card but it is. And it's so easy! 

    The Friends of the Ocean DSP is so colorful and fun; here's a peek it. 

    Friends of the Ocean DSP Save

    The layered greeting is attached to the right sided edge and it holds the left side closed. 

    With you in Mind fun fold Save

    How? There's an extra score line 1" from the edge.  The card base is 7 1/2" X 5 1/2" score at 1" and 4 1/4". 

    I used the new With You in Mind stamp set for this card.  I love it because the greetings are nice & large and it's my friend Julie Davison's million $ stamp set!  The greeting fits onto the new To the Point punch well and that layers on our 2 3/8" circle punch perfectly.

    **All of these products are coming out in the Spring Catalog on Tuesday, January 7th.
