Quarter Diagonal cards; watch on FB Live tonight!


If you're like most stampers you have a LOT of Designer Paper stocked up.  I've been on a mission to use mine up and help you with ideas to use yours too.  There's always more we want; so here's a way to use some so you don't feel so bad about purchasing more!  Ha! 

Below are the cards we're making tonight on Facebook Live – Stamp with Me.  It's the 2nd and 4th Monday nights each month at 7:30 pm CT.  Join me here. 

Be sure to follow my FB page so you get notified when I'm live.  

I chose to use the Magic in the Night designer paper; seen here in our Halloween DSP in the 2020 Holiday catalog.  I love the colors of Pretty Peacock, Cajun Craze, Black, Blackberry Bliss and White.  And as you can see some of the designs are not all Halloween!  

The greetings and die-cuts are from the Celebration Tidings Bundle seen here.  I love that it has multiple holidays and these dies are amazing! 

Here's how you create the diagonal layers; it's so easy! 

For 2 cards, cut 2 pieces of Designer paper (or card stock) at 4" X 5 1/4". Then cut each in half on the diagonal. Next put those pieces back together on your paper trimmer to reform the full piece (just placing; not gluing) and cut on the diagonal in the other direction. Now you'll have 4 triangle shaped pieces from one 4" X 5 1/4" piece.
I chose two coordinating pieces of DSP that would work on all 4 sides and that makes 2 full card fronts.

For the card below I chose to use the Gilded Autumn specialty DSP.  The colors here are Early Espresso, Cajun Craze and Vanilla.

  • A stunning Holiday card with free project sheet & video tutorial


    Here’s the other card I made on last week’s video. I loved playing with the Joyful Tidings stamp set seen here; it’s just my style!

    My colors include White, Basic Beige & Gold. Soft, pretty & classy.

    Here are the products I used:

    – Gathering Together designer series paper
    – Gold Striped ribbon
    – Low-profile dots (now retired)
    – Gold heat embossing powder
    Creative Haven dies seen here for the leaf die-cuts

    I created a free project sheet for this pretty card. Click here to download or print it.

    You can also watch the video tutorial below. I shared a neat trick to place the leaf die-cuts on the greeting circle element. Press & Seal wrap saves a ton of time!

  • A gorgeous card with the Joyful Tidings set


    This beautiful card has tons of Gold accents plus there are lots of neat tips you’ll appreciate. I made it during last week’s video.

    It was originally created for our November Team swap. The theme was to use foil or metallic heat embossing. I did both!

    Notice the background stamping on the right side; I used the Amber Autumn set with Versamark ink. The greeting is from the Ornamental Christmas set. The gold foil ‘wheat’ die-cuts are from the Amber Autumn dies
    The wreath stamp set is Joyful Tidings and can be seen here. I’ve always loved wreaths and used to collect them.

    Here I simply heat embossed the partial wreath in Gold embossing powder. It’s stamped on a die-cut from the Spotlight on Nature dies. See the pretty gold hoop? Those are available here and are applied with either mini glue dots or thin lines of Multipurpose Liquid Glue (which I did).

    My colors include Basic Beige, Mossy Meadow and Gold foil. I textured the Mossy Meadow layer with the Wreath 3D embossing folder. I also used the Labeled with Love punch to achieve the ‘ticket’ shaped corners.
    *look at your punches to see if you can use them in new ways!

    This card is a slightly different fold because the second layer is what opens. I created a free project sheet for this card for you. Click here to download or print it.

    I also have a video tutorial seen below for this beautiful card and one more beautiful card featuring the Joyful Tidings stamp set that I’ll share Wednesday.
