This week's Stamp with Me Live video featured a window technique using dies. The 2nd & 4th Monday of the month I offer a 'Stamp with Me' Live on my FB page here. Be sure to follow my page so you get notified!
My original card idea came from the Holiday catalog and used the Love of Leaves dies. But I switched it up to use the Stitched Stars dies with the Playful Patterns designer series paper for these fun cards:
I used the smallest three star dies to create 'windows' in my card stock. Then I popped them up over the Playful Patterns designer paper. Add a greeting and another card stock strip and you're done! So quick & easy!
Watch the video below to catch all of the tips and see the original cards too.
Measurements:
Card stock for window 4 1/4" X 3 1/4"
Designer Paper 4 1/2" X 3 1/2"
Greeting strips 3/4"-1" X 4" wide

Are you enjoying these sneak peaks from the new 2021 Stampin' Up! Spring & Sale-a-Bration catalogs? It's always fun to play with brand new products. Today I'm playing with new 2021 Sale-a-Bration (or SAB) items.
The Paper Blooms Designer Series Paper is full of flowers and fun color combos! I decided to use my Stitched Rectangle dies to create this layered effect. If you want to watch a video on how to do this click here.
I used the third smallest and the third largest die in the Stitched Rectangles set. It looks like I wasted a ton of paper but the entire card is made with one piece of DSP measuring 5 1/4" X 4". It's so cool!
Navy layers are:
Main card 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
Smallest rectangle is 3 3/8" X 2", middle is 4 1/2" X 3 1/8"
You might wonder what I used for the greeting. The White piece is a new die from the Potted Succulent dies seen here. The Rococo Rose layers are punched pieces; 2 of them. I used a 1" X 3 3/4" strip and the Lovely Labels Pick a Punch for the ends. The center piece is the Story Label punch. The pearls on the label are the NEW Pastel Pearls on page 19 of the new Spring Catalog seen here.
Free Quick & Easy One Sheet Wonder template for 12″ designer paper
When I saw the Berry Delightful Designer Series Paper I thought it would work wonderfully with a one sheet wonder. It's amazing and gorgeous paper that you can get FREE during Stampin' Up!'s 2021 Sale-a-Bration promotion. It starts on Tuesday, January 5th so I cannot give you a link to the products quite yet. But I can show you my cards!
Aren't they sweet? All are made with just one sheet of 12 X 12" Berry Delightful paper. I needed just a few additional strips and layers along with greetings. The colors are Poppy Parade, Granny Apple Green, Garden Green, White & Flirty Flamingo.
Here's the template I created. You can watch the video below to get some tips on making these cards.
I used the Berry Blessings stamp set which is included in the free bundle along with the Sweet Strawberry set & punch bundle from the new Spring catalog.
This stamp set & Designer Paper are free with a $100 purchase during SAB.
Here's the Sweet Strawberry bundle I used. I love that the punch has 4 parts that match the stamps! (You can tell which images coordinate with the punch; they're highlighted.) And notice how the fonts in both of these sets match?!!
I'm offering the 10 strawberry cards as a free pre-cut kit to go to anyone who chooses the Berry Delightful bundle from me during Sale-a-Bration; which runs from January 5th – February 28th. However, the supply may be limited in February.
