Half Triangle Flocked Snowflake Specialty Vellum Card

Hey friends, I'm back today with another fun card featuring the beautiful Snowflake Vellum and Hope and Peace stamp set. This card was totally inspired by Selene Kempton, a fellow demonstrator.

If you have ever dabbled in quilting, then you know all about the "half triangle", but it's a great layout for cards too! Just cut a layer 4" x 5 1/4" then slice on the diagonal. You now have a piece for 2 separate cards. 

I did punch a Smoky Slate "decorative circle" to place behind the Beautiful Snowflake to make it pop a little. The sentiment is stamped in Pacific Point and I sprinkled a few Sparkling Adhesive-backed gems to finish it off and I love how it came out. 

Below you will find the full list of supplies and they are linked to my store for easy shopping. I hope these cards this week inspire you to get crafty and create!

How to Make a Fun Plaid Background with the Stampin' Up! Candy Cane Dies

 Hello friends,

I'm back again with a fun card, with a fun background using the Candy Cane dies from Stampin' Up!. The diagonal background die specifically. On it's own, this die cuts out a fun diagonal background for your card fronts, but, if you cut 2 and flip the bottom one over, then adhere the 2 together, you get this really cool "plaid" background! Talk about stretching your dies and your $$s. That's one die and 2 very different looks. I created this card during my Facebook Live and it sure got a lot of oohs and aahs. I hope you like it too and it inspires you to look at your dies and see how many ways you can use them, again, getting more value from them.

Happy Stamping!
