Make It Monday #251 ~ Strip Paper Piecing Technique

Leave a Comment / Designer Series Paper, Happy Birthday, Make it Monday Videos, Stamping Techniques, Thinking of You /

Happy Easter Monday! I pray that our Risen Lord will bless you abundantly during this Easter Season. I thought it would be fun to go through my springtime DSP scraps to create a few fun cards for you. So dig out your leftover scraps and create something beautiful with me today.

Did you know that when you cut a 12 x 12 piece of DSP into six card fronts measuring 4 x 5 1/4 that you will have a strip of 1 1/2 x 12 left over? Fun, right? Well, when that happens, don’t throw them away or cut them down because today I am going to show you how to use them to create a strip paper piecing card. Check out the video below that explains how this technique works.

Here is a closer look at our cards for today!

Floral Charm 6 x6 One Sheet Wonder~ Weekly Wednesday #90

Leave a Comment / Designer Series Paper, Get Well & Sympathy, One Sheet Wonder, Weekly Wednesday Videos /

Good morning my stamping friends, I hope you are having a great week. I am excited to share with you 4 cards that I created from one sheet of 6 x 6 DSP. I am using the Floral Charm DSP which is actually a 12 x 12 paper pack, so you can just cut that down to be a 6 x 6 sheet. You will get four 6 x 6 sheets from just one of these papers, so technically you could create 16 cards from this one sheet of paper.

Leave a Comment / Designer Series Paper, Easter-Spring, Make it Monday Videos /

Happy Monday everyone. Easter is just around the corner and today I have a super sweet Easter Treat box that I created using the Easter Joy designer series paper pack. This pack is still available but is on the low inventory list, so hurry and get yours today. Order soon so it will arrive before Easter.

Today I have created just one box using a 4 x 6 piece of designer series paper, but I have included the scoring instructions on how you can score one piece of 12 x 12 patterned paper and create 6 fun treat boxes. Be sure to watch the video and download your free project sheet with detailed instructions.

Here is a closer look at our treat box!

This box can be created using the pattern paper of your choice making it great for not only Easter, but birthdays and holiday stocking stuffers. Yes, I know it is only March, but if you are in my craft room it is never to early to start creating Christmas crafts. LOL

Weekly Wednesday #83 Fun with Paper Scraps

Designer Series Paper, Stamping Techniques /

Happy Wednesday everyone. I hope you are having a Fabulous February. Check out the new Stamp Positioner that can be yours FREE when you sign up to join my team this month. After all it is always more fun stamping with friends!

Do you have paper scraps in your stash that you just can’t get rid of because they are so beautiful? If you don’t start saving those end pieces and you will have a great stash in no time. Today’s video features two ways to use up some of those scraps.

I think the hardest part of this project is choosing which papers to use. I chose coordinating colors, but different colors and different patterns would make an amazing card as well.

A Closer Look at today’s cards!

This is such a great way to use scraps because you can choose the size you want and get creative. The greeting in my second card is from the new Prayers and Promise set. I just love the greetings in this set!

#82 Weekly Wednesday ~ Super Easy Fun Fold Card

Designer Series Paper, Fun Fold Cards, Happy Birthday, Thank You /

Hello my stamping friends. I hope you are staying warm. The temperature is pretty cold in St. Louis and we have a ton of snow on the ground. I am guessing anywhere between 9 and 10 inches. Yes, it is the perfect weather for creating fun fold cards and I have a super easy one for you today.

This is such a fun and totally easy card but it sure does pack that wow factor. It really does not take much DSP at all, but the end result is fabulous. Be sure to download your free project sheet with all the correct measurements. If you watch the video then you will know I was on the struggle bus with my measurements, but I promise, the project sheet is correct.

Let’s take a closer look:

Weekly Wed. #81 Fun Fold Accordion Card

Designer Series Paper, Fun Fold Cards, Weekly Wednesday Videos /

Happy Wednesday. If you live in the Midwest, I do hope you are staying warm. It is really supposed to get cold this weekend. I may have to move my crafting space into my living room in front of the fire! LOL. Or maybe I will just sit in my lazy boy and enjoy a glass of Chardonnay. But for now, I am excited to share with you a fun fold accordion card that I created using a 5 1/4 x 12 piece of designer series paper.

This card will look great with whatever patterned paper you have on hand, but if you want to purchase the True Blue Florals paper pack, it is the product of the month from December, so supplies are limited. Just place a $75 order through my online store and you can choose the True Blue Floral paper pack or the January 2026 product of the month, Fabulous Sayings. Both are featured in our card today.

#80 Weekly Wednesday ~ Quilt Patchwork Cards

2 Comments / Christmas 2025, Designer Series Paper, Happy Birthday, Stamping Techniques /

I was not sure what to call these cards, but it sure was fun creating them. This super simple template will be just the thing to use up your leftover scraps of designer series paper. And if you don’t have scraps, well I am not sure how that would happen, but in case you don’t just cut a strip of dsp that measures 1-1/4 x 12 and cut according to the template in the video.

Here is a closer look at the cards!

I hope you have as much fun creating these cards as I did. Once I created the template I was having so much fun with my different scraps. You could also try making your own DSP pattern paper and maybe even emboss some solid cardstock squares for an added dimension. I can see that the possibilities are endless. I think I might have to give that a try a my next stamp camp. Happy Stamping!
