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 Chinese New Year; it’s the year of the Rabbit

    Did you know that 2023 is the year of the rabbit? The sign of Rabbit is a symbol of longevity, peace, and prosperity in Chinese culture. 2023 is predicted to be a year of hope.

    Look at this gorgeous card my team member Ginny made for a friend of hers:

    • Paper – Gold foil & Real Red
    • Other – Easter Bunny Punch, Red ribbon, Gold embossing powder, Heat Tool, Brushed Metallic dots

  • Awesome Sale-a-Bration Team card swap samples

    We held our monthly Team swap and meeting this weekend.  As usual my gals created fabulous cards to share with each other.  

    First is a rainbow of carrots card made by Karen.  She used the Thanks a Bunch stamp set.  It's a free choice during our Sale-a-Bration promotion; yours with any $50 purchase of Stampin' Up! products. 

    Jan Thanks a Bunch Karen Save

    Rainbow carrots are one of the fun food trends right now; she did it proud!  She used the Stamparatus to stamp her carrots, repositioning the card stock on her mat each time so the two step stamps lined up perfectly.  Genius!  I plan to share her technique soon.  

    She used the new Cane Weave 3D embossing folder seen here, new Pastel Adhesive-Backed sequins, the Deckled Rectangle dies and the new Happy Labels Pick a Punch for her greeting.

    Ginny made this pretty card with the Beautifully Happy stamp set; also from Sale-a-Bration. 

    Jan BeautifullyHappy Ginny Save

    It's a beautiful 2-step stamp set that is also distinktive; which means it gives two tones of ink on one stamping.  My favorite types of stamp hands down! 

    Her colors are Fresh Freesia, Old Olive and Black. She added that soft layer of Vellum too!

    Measurements are: 

    Card base 4 1/4" X 11", White – 3" X 4 1/8", Black 3 1/8" X 4 1/4" and Vellum is 3 5/8" X 4 3/4" 

    ~~~

    Jane brought this cute card to share and I had to show you.  She used the Adorable Owls stamp set; another Sale-a-Bration choice that's free with a $50 purchase from now through February 28th. *see everything free here

    Can you see what is so unique about it?  

    Jan BeautifullyHappy Ginny Save

    The Owl tag is loose and can be removed from the card front.  It is caught on the horizontal greeting banner that is only anchored at the outer edges.  I love this idea!  You could add a bookmark in the same way.  

    Her colors are Calypso Coral with Fresh Freesia.

  • Desert Details WOW card

    I spent time playing with the Delicate Desert suite and this is what I came up with: 

    Desert Details Jan 23 LA Save

    I LOVE how it turned out!  I really wanted to use the Dry Brushed specialty paper along with the Desert Details bundle seen here.  The dies in it are so cool! 

    DESERT DETAILS BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

    The two large rectangles and dies for the stamped flowers are just a few of the dies included.  

    Desert Details Jan 23 LA Save

    My colors include Petal Pink & Soft Succulent. I cut two of the open leaf dies from the center of the Dry Brushed large shape, leaving the outer frame intact. No one but me knows there are empty spaces under the White layer! 

    You can see the Dry Brushed metallic specialty paper here.  It's simply stunning!  

    DRY BRUSHED METALLIC 12" X 12" (30.5 X 30.5 CM) SPECIALTY DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save

    There are two of each sheet in this package of 12" metallic paper for $8. 

    Desert Details LA Save

    I added a few of the Gold Faceted Adhesive-Backed sequins on this card too.  They're also part of the Delicate Desert suite seen here.

    I hope you enjoyed this project; it came together so easily.
