Stack & Cut cards with Dandy Designs & Something Fancy with PDF project sheet & template download!

I LOVE the cards I'm sharing with you today!!  So much!  

They're 'Stack & Cut' cards using an easy template I'll share below.  I created these for last week's Facebook Live.  The Dandy Design SAB designer paper features gorgeous color combinations like this one:

Who would have thought Balmy Blue & Coastal Cabana would be so pretty together?!  I sure didn't.  But with the small prints and the addition of White & Pool Party it works beautifully. 

Each set of cards feature this neat Dandy Designs designer paper seen here.  This huge pack of 48 12 X 12" sheets is free during Sale-a-Bration with any $100 purchase.

For each of these sets of cards I also featured the Something Fancy bundle.  It's one of my top picks. See it here.  The greetings are great but the dies!  WOW; the tags and layers are perfect!  

SOMETHING FANCY BUNDLE (ENGLISH) Save

Add this bundle to your order and you're over half way towards getting the Dandy Designs paper pack free! All of these tags and greeting die-cuts are from these Something Fancy dies.  

This next set is all pastels in Fresh Freesia & Petal Pink; another color combo I would never have put together.  But it works!

You also might notice that each card is a fun fold.  Here are the measurements:

  • Horizontal cards – 4 1/4" X 11" card base, scored at 2 3/4" & 5 1/2"
  • Vertical cards 5 1/2" X 8 1/2" card base, scored at 2 1/8" & 4 1/4" 

Below is the template I used.  I started out with 4 pieces of designer paper measuring 3 3/4" X 5".  I cut two at a time using the measurements on the template.  Then I cut 4 pieces of card stock for the layer under the designer paper pieces.  It's so easy and a fabulous way to use up your designer paper AND get a bunch of cards done quickly.

  • Blossoms in Bloom; another pretty cards duo

    Today I have a pair of cards made with the 'Split Technique'. This is where you stamp or die-cut once to get two cards.  

    I used the Blossoms in Bloom bundle seen here, cutting out two sets of floral dies. I'm sharing lots of projects featuring this incredible bundle this week. 

    Blossoms in Bloom Heather both Save

    I sponged the thicker die-cut with Highland Heather, Coastal Cabana and Bermuda Bay.  Then I adhered the thin die-cut over the sponged one using liquid multipurpose adhesive.  Next I cut the full, layered die-cut in half so I could place each half on a card.

    What do you think of this color combination?  I like to find unique combinations when I play with Stampin' Up!'s gorgeous variety of colors.  

    The Many Layered Blossoms dies includes two large dies and several smaller flowers.  The two large dies include both a finely cut and a thicker blossom die for effortless layering.  I cut out once of each; both from Whisper White card stock.

    The Highland Heather layer is textured with the new Tasteful Textile 3D embossing folder.  It's very subtle and gives a delicate textile pattern.

    The greeting die-cut banner is from the Tasteful Labels dies; stamped in Bermuda Bay ink.

  • Flowers for Every Season

    The Flowers for Every Season paper pack is the only 6 X 6" papers in the new Stampin' Up! Annual catalog.  Many people love the 6 X 6" papers; they find them easier to cut into for some reason.  

    I decided to use them for last week Monday night's Stamp with Me video.  Here's a link to it on Facebook. 

    June 1 Flowers. Save

    This is one of my favorite I made so far with this paper; I love the new Misty Moonlight in color.  Paired with Night of Navy and White is quite striking in my opinion.  Monochrome cards can be so soothing! 

    I also used the Small Bloom punch, 2020-22 In Color Enamel Dots and the Pick a Punch. 

    Measurements:

    • Card Base 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
      DSP 3 1/2" square and 1" X 3 1/2"
      CS layer 5" X 3 3/4"
      CS strip; textured 3/4" X 4 1/4"
