Today I am continuing my series of cards that use a
basic layout and can be recreated using any number of stamp sets that you may
have on hand. I used four different
stamp sets to create these cards as well as four different Designer Series
Papers (DSP). I did want to show that
you could also make many cards by simply changing up the Designer Series Paper (DSP)
and choosing coordinating cardstock for your layering. The one constant here is that I used the Layering
Squares dies on all of them (love these squares and I use them all the time
since they are made to work perfectly together it takes the guess work out of
what size goes with what size). So, here they are, I hope you enjoy them.
Grace's Garden and Garden Lane DSP
Daisy Lane and Best Dressed DSP
Stamp Set and DSP has now retired
Good Morning Magnolia and Magnolia Lane DSP
The card bases are all from a half a sheet of cardstock,
and were cut 5 ½ x 8 ½” and scored at 4 ¼”.
Two were designed vertically and two were designed horizontally, as this
layout is perfect for either.
The first layer on all these cards is cut from Whisper
White cardstock at 3 ¾ x 5”. I then
selected our stamp sets and four DSP’s and started to create. The DSP is cut at 2 x 3 ½”. For my squares I cut them from Whisper White
(except the one I used with the die cut magnolia which I cut from Old Olive)
using the fourth largest of the squares from the dies. I then selected coordinating cardstock to cut
the base square which was cut using the 3rd largest of the scalloped
squares from the dies. I stamped my
image onto the whisper white cardstock in the case of cards 1 and 3. I then colored in the images on card 1 using Stampin’
Blends. For card 3 I stamped the base
image and then stamped and punched out a little flower from the set (this stamp
set was a sale-a-bration freebie and is no longer available but since many of
my customers got it for free I wanted to show them how to use it). For card 2 I used my Daisy Lane bundle and
stamped and punched out two daisies which I layered, I added two leaves that
were also done using a punch and finally added a Perennial Essence Floral
Center. For card 4 I stamped the image
from the Good Morning Magnolia bundle and die cut it using the coordinating
dies. I colored it using the Stampin’
Blends and then added it to my squares.
All of the squares are popped up using dimensionals. You
may also notice that all of my sentiments are geared to thinking about you
cards. I intend to use these cards to
send to some of the elderly shut-ins from my church as these are very trying
times for them.
I hope you enjoy this layout and these cards. I will list the supplies below but remember
you can use anything you have on hand.
