Happy Wednesday. Today I am sharing with you an older technique, but one that I think you will enjoy. Most of the videos I have watched from days gone, refer to this technique as the “Torn Window” technique. So hey, who am I to re-invent the wheel! It might look complicated, but it is quite easy, so I hope you will give it a try.
A closer look:

I hope you enjoyed this super fun and simple technique. As mentioned in the video, this card is probably best if hand delivered. Since the rolled back window portion of the DSP/cardstock can be bulky, depending on where you live, it might require extra postage. Happy Stamping!

It’s a five minute birthday kind of Friday. I am using the new Florals in Bloom designer series paper pack to create a fast and fabulous card. I began with a Melon Mambo card base and added a 5-3/*8 x 4-1/8 panel of Basic White. My designer series paper measures 4 x 5-1/4 and in attached to the Basic white and then the card front.
I added a strip of Melon Mambo (1/2 x 4-1/4) to create a faux ribbon look. The greeting is from Unbounded Love and stamped with Melon Mambo ink. I used the Heartfelt Hexagon punch to crop the greeting and added it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a little bling and your five minute card is complete. Again, this is the Florals in Bloom designer series paper pack and it is gorgeous. Have fun creating this card layout. Happy Stamping!

Did you know that Barcelona’s Sagrada Família is scheduled for completion in 2026. The final, central spire, measuring in at 566 feet, will make the cathedral the tallest church building on Earth. All spires, as well as the building’s interior and exterior, are covered with mosaic artwork. Who knew???
My card today is not a grand mosaic, but it is the Mosaic Tile Technique for stampers. While a true mosaic art piece is made up of lots of little piece fit together to create an image or design, I mimicked it by using 1 -1/4 x 1-1/4″ Basic white squares to create my own mosaic tile card. I hope you will give this technique a try.
Mosaic Tile Technique
Start with a Basic White panel, mine measures 3-3/4 x 5. Stamp and color your images or feel free to use a piece of our amazing designer series paper, either one will look great. I stamped on my white with the flowers and dotted accents from You Are Remarkable. I used Petunia Pop and Garden Green to add color with the solid images.
After you are finished with all the stamping and coloring, cut your cardstock in portrait position into 1-1/4″ strips. Two cuts will get you three strips. I guess technically you can cut in the landscape position at 1-1/4″, then you will need to make three cuts. Either way, when you have your strips, very carefully and keeping them together, cut at 1-1/4″ again until you have 12 squares aka tiles. You can use washi tape or prepositional tape to keep them together, just be super careful when you are removing the tape, you don’t want to damage any of your tiles.
Cut a 4 x 5-1/4 piece of Basic Black cardstock and begin placing your tiles making sure you have even borders. I like to work in a top and bottom corner to start off. Once you have your first row with spacing down it is easy to keep adding tiles. I also like to use the Tombow liquid glue as it gives you a little more wiggle room to position tiles before it dries.
Then all you have to do is decide on a greeting and add it to your card front. I stamped my Happy Birthday from The Right Words and used Stampin’ Dimensional to attach them to my card front. This is a really fun card, but notice how I did not add this to our Five Minute Friday series. I just takes a little bit more time to be sure all your tiles are straight. That really is the hardest part. I hope you enjoyed today’s card. Happy Stamping!

Don’t you hate it when one of your favorite stamp sets gets moved to the retiring list? For me it is the Flowers of Beauty. While I am extremely happy that I purchased this set, it is always sad to say good-bye when sets retire. As a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator I try to feature our most recent products. Even though I don’t feature them on my blog or in my stamping classes, I will for sure be keeping this one in my stash to create cards to gift and to sell.

And now today’s bonus card…..
This is some of our retired patterned paper, but it is still a great choice. I mounted the three strips of DSP on a 4 x 5-1/4 panel of Crushed Curry, but you will want to choose a color that coordinates with your paper. For this sample I used the same paper pack, coordinating colors, but a different strip for each section. The greeting is stamped with Memento Black ink and fussy cut with our paper snips. I love our snips, they make fussy cuttings so easy. Click here for our paper snips!
I hope you enjoyed today’s video. Don’t forget to check out the new rewards program. Have a fantastic day…..Happy Stamping!
