Triple Stack & Cut cards with free project sheet & video tutorial

I'm a bit addicted to this card layout!  I'm calling it the Triple Stack & Cut card.  

Translucent Floral triple stack Save

You start out with three different patterns of designer paper measuring 3 3/4" X 5".  Stack them together and make the upper right cut – a triangle.  You could measure it but I just made sure my stack was even and sliced it off. It's approximately 3/4" from the upper left and 1" from the lower right.  

Then for the remaining pieces you continue cutting all three pieces at once, cutting approximately in half on the diagonal and about 1" from the lower left.  

You can now mix & match so one piece of each pattern can fit on each of 3 card fronts.  I adhered them to a 4" X 5 1/4" piece of Berry Burst card stock.  That then adheres to your card base – I folded back my front to create a fun fold design.

Tip: Note that the patterned paper has a large print, a small print and one without pattern.  This can help your card appear soothing and less busy. 

I shared how to do this on the video below.  In the video I used the Traditions of St. Nick designer paper; another Online Exclusive seen here.  

I used the Christmas Classic bundle seen here with Real Red, Cherry Cobbler, Mossy Meadow & White card stock.

The Mossy Meadow leaves are from the Christmas Classics dies.  Here are the three cards I made:

  • More incredible By the Bay card samples!

    Yesterday I shared 5 gorgeous cards my team member Bobby made with the By the Bay suite. See the entire suite here. 

    She is our Artist of the Month on my Flowerbug's Team and chose the Seaside Bay bundle for her projects.  She is a very talented stamper and a fabulous photographer too! 

    This first card is unbelievable Pillar Pop-Up card and was cased from Rachel Tessman. 

    Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-13 Save

    It's so cool!  This card truly shows off this suite and the stunning gold accents in the By the Bay designer paper.  

    Can you see the little DSP pillars in the photo below?  The entire upper panel is adhered to two little pillars and they fold flat for mailing too.  I had to make one myself and chose to use the Adorable Owls for my card.  You can see it here on my video.  Measurements too! 

    Seaside Bay 7 Save

    This next card is a Book Binding fold. Her card base is Balmy blue and that pretty shell designer paper is adhered to narrow White layers. 

    It also shows off the soft Balmy Blue variegated ribbon that's new in our Spring catalog.  

    Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-10 Save
    When making a book binding fold card you will adhere the front left edge to the back so only the large layer on the left opens.  Tip: If adding ribbon you may want to wrap it behind before you secure the scored edge together.  

    Measurements:

    • Balmy Blue 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 4 1/2" & 5 1/2"
    • White 4 1/8" X 7/8" and 4 1/8" square
    • DSP 3/4" X 4" and 4" square

    BY THE BAY 6" X 6" (15.2 X 15.2 CM) SPECIALTY DESIGNER SERIES PAPER Save

    See the By the Bay 6 X 6" specialty designer paper here.  It's so beautiful I chose it for one of my January card kits to go.  I have just 3 left; see the kit or PDF here.  

    Next is a simple but super pretty card with just a square of the By the Bay designer paper set onto a layer of Gold Foil.  The nice thing about doing this is you can die-cut your elements from the center of the Gold foil and no one can tell!  


    Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-4 Save

    Cards with mostly White draw your eye to the main element as you can see here.  She stamped her greeting on the White layer before texturing it with the Timeworn Type embossing folder seen here.  Pool Party is her accent color.  

    Measurements:

    • The DSP is 2 7/8" square and the gold foil is 3" square. 
    • The white layer is 4" X 5 1/4" and Pool Party is 4 1/8" X 5 3/8" 

    Her next card is an easel card and it shows off the clam shell die in the Seaside Bay bundle.  It is scored and hinges open to reveal a pretty pearl gem inside.  

    Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-4 Save
    She cased it from Julia Quinn.  That pretty clam shell and the designer paper layer is what holds the easel up.  So neat!  

    Measurements:

    • Balmy Blue 5 1/2" X 4 1/4"
    • Sahara Sand easel 5 1/4" X 8" scored at 4 and 6"
    • White – 2 pieces measuring 5 1/8" X 3 7/8"
    • DSP one at 5 X 3 3/4" and one at 5" X 1 1/2" 

    Next and last is an exquisite card featuring just Sahara Sand, foils and white.  Love the soothing colors here!

    Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-9 Save

    This pretty card was cased from Gail Ellis and shows off the textured die-cuts when done in foil. 

    Measurements:

    • White 5 1/4" X 4" and 5 1/4" X 2 3/4"
    • DSP squares 1 1/2"
    • Sahara Sand squares 1 5/8" squares & two strips for the torn edge on the shells area 
    • two gold strips 1/2" X 5 1/4"

    I hope you've enjoyed seeing the beautiful cards Bobby created to show off the Seaside Bay bundle. She sure did a fantastic job didn't she?

  • Incredible By the Bay suite projects by our Artist of the Month!

    Each month one of my Flowerbug's team is the 'Artist of the Month'.  This month Bobby is the featured Artist and she chose to use the Seaside Bay bundle with the By the Bay Suite seen here.  It's filled with beautiful fold & pearl foil specialty designer paper, Flat Adhesive-Backed pearls & blue & white variegated ribbon.  

    Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-1 Save

    This pretty fun fold card was cased from Melva Peters

    The Thank you sentiment is cut out with the Stitched Rectangular Framelit dies; she ran the long edge of the die over the sentiment at an angle to get the angled effect.  

    Measurements:

    • Navy Card base 8 1/4" X 4 1/4" scored at 5 1/2"; second piece is 4 1/2" X 2 3/4" scored at 4"
    • DSP 2 1/2" X 4" and 3 3/4" X 2 1/2"
    • White inside is 5 1/4" X 4", scrap for greeting and clam shell die-cut

    Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-1 Save

    Magnetic closures are used to secure the card closed.  

    Next is a pretty card cased from Leonie Stuart. 

    Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-1 Save

    The pretty texture is done with the Seashells 3D embossing folder.  She also used a vellum circle, Night of Navy ink, Wink of Stella, the Natural Finish ribbon and linen thread.

    This next card is her own creation; she did the floating technique with the By the Bay DSP seen here. 

    Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-7 Save

    The floating technique is where you add strips of paper to a window sheet leaving spaces between.  Then die-cut it out and it looks like it's floating.  She used the Stylish Shapes dies for the circle.  

    More details:

    The bird is cut from the By the Bay Designer Series Paper. Leaf Sprig is from the Framed Florets and the embossing is from the Seashells 3D embossing folder in the annual catalog.  

    Here's the inside view – all done in Navy & Starry Sky inks.

    Next is a gorgeous card cased from Gail Ellis.  

    Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-7 Save

    She added 1 3/8" squares to a die-cut stitched rectangle measuring 3 3/8" X 4 3/4".  I love the white on white with that pop of gold and sea greens & blues!  The Faux Sea Glass shapes are added too.

    Lastly for today is a card cased from Evelyn Rosborough. A beautiful monochromatic card – some of my favorites! 

    Seaside Bay for LeeAnn-5 Save

    The DSP measures 3 1/4" X 5 1/2", the White layer is 3 1/2" X 5 1/2" on a Sahara Sand card base.  

    The seashell is cut from the Texture Chic DSP and the greetings are cut from the Stitched Rectangle dies.  Love that foil sea grass accent!  

    I'll share details on the other half of her cards tomorrow!

  • 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.
