Use the Double Wonder Template to make 11 quick cards! Join me Thursday night!


Do you ever planned a stamping session focusing on just a few products? It's easy to get overwhelmed with everything you own.  Using this method is actually quite liberating and fuels the creative process.  I've started doing that more and more often especially when planning my card kits to go.  I pick Stampin' Up! products from the same suite and choose some sketches or layouts for card ideas.  the process is so enjoyable this way!  

Lately I've been seeing groups of cards using the Double Wonder template and had to try it.  It was originally designed by Shannon West from Stampin' Up!  It's so clever!! You start out with 2 pieces of 6" X 12" designer paper and using the pieces you can quickly have 11 finished cards!

Look at these! I'll be making these cards Live tomorrow night at 7 pm CT. Join me either here on FB or on Zoom.  

Here are the steps: 

  1. Pick out 2 different sheets of 6 X 12" designer paper and 11 card bases.  Make sure you have some ribbons or embellishments to match.  
  2. Use the template below to cut your designer paper; cutting both at once. 
  3. Grab some scraps of White and coordinating colors for punches/greetings. 
  4. Cut 4 pieces of layering card stock at 3 1/4" X 5" and one 3 3/4" square for the bonus card. (I used White)
  5. Choose a stamp set & ink to coordinate. 
  6. Or use the new Share Sunshine Covid-19 digital download like I did for my greetings. No stamping needed!  You can purchase that here. https://covid19.stampinup.com/products/giving-back-us-ca Price: $12.00 USD
  7. Come back here tomorrow night so we can stamp together.
  8. Or use this link to join via Zoom. *see tips on zoom meetings below  https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88215870191

I chose to use the new Ornate Garden designer paper for my cards.  Anything goes but a non directional design is best; try not to choose a paper that needs to be north and south.

  • Framed & Festive for an easy Christmas card


    I shared this pretty card on last week's FB Live video.  I LOVE this pretty DSP.  

    For this card I colored the white berries on the DSP Red with a Blends marker.  You can change the color of these berries so easily! They could be pink for a birthday card or red for Christmas. 

    The greeting is from the Framed & Festive stamp set seen here; available through early January or while supplies last.

    I love this card layout because of it's simplicity.  It has a textured layer, a layered piece of designer paper, ribbon and a punched greeting.  Everything most of us want to add to our cards.  Here are the measurements, in the photo below. 

    The greeting punch is the Decorative Circle punch from the Annual Catalog. 

    This DSP is a limited time products; available through early January or while supplies last.  It's featured in this month's kit to go seen here. 

    You can see all of these new products here.

  • Framed Florets card in blues; an easy layout idea


    And the blog issues continue….. If you're looking at this from a phone or tablet you may not see any photos.  But as of yesterday they did show up on a computer.  I hope Typepad figures this out soon!  

    This is one of the cards I demonstrated on last week's FB Live video. Each one features the new Fitting Florets collection of products. 


    The card was inspired by the colors in the pretty floral designer paper. I chose Night of Navy, Balmy Blue & Soft Succulent with White.  The oval is from the Framed Florets dies; the flower & leaves are from the Framed Florets bundle. I colored them in with Blends markers.  

    The greeting images are so pretty; I love the mixed font.  

    In the video below, I shared three cards featuring the Framed Florets bundle and the Fitting Florets DSP seen here.  This DSP is a limited time products; available through early January or while supplies last.  It's featured in this month's kit to go seen here. 

    You can see all of these new products here.
