I know other people call this technique the slice and shuffle but for me it is cut and shuffle. You need 3 different pattern papers that complement each other and have the same measurements. In the video below I show you how to cut the paper and shuffle it to create potentially 3 different cards.

measurements

  • Thick Basic White Cardstock – A6 Card Base – This is an A4 sheet cut in half and then folded in half.
  • Iconic Celebration Designer Series Paper (DSP) – 14.35cm X 10cm

This card has a woodland almost autumnal feel to it. I love these toadstools. They bring a pop of colour to an otherwise very neutral colour palette. I stamped on Very Vanilla cardstock and distressed the image using Crumb Cake ink. The toadstools are coloured using the Stampin’ Blend Alcohol markers, my favourite colouring medium.

A panel design is great way to use up these busy or scenic papers. It lets them be the star of the card. The designer series paper (DSP) above is the Thoughtful Journies DSP. I love the soft colours. I’ve paired with a simple sentiment backed on some matching glimmer paper.

Below you can see the same card except this time I’ve used the Meandering Meadows DSP. Which version do you prefer? Let me know in the comments below.

Technique – How to Heat Emboss on Patterned Paper – Easy Card Tutorial – Thanking You – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo

I am great fan of big, bold sentiments. When I saw this one in the catalogue, I just knew I had to have it. Initially, I was going to do something completely different with this card. After watching a fellow demo use the Full of Life designer series paper (DSP) I knew I wanted to use it with this sentiment and this card was born.

The sentiment is white heat embossed. You can use a white pigment ink but you won’t get as strong a white as you do with heat embossing. I love how the white pops against the rainbow DSP. We tend to forget that we can emobss on patterned paper just as well as on cardstock. The results are amazing, Go ahead and try it yourself.

Memory and More cards are great for pocket scrapbooking and quick and easy cards. I’ve paired a card with a couple of stamped florals and hey presto, my card is done. Here is another example below. Which do you prefer?

Memory and More cards come in two sizes, 4″ X 6″ and 4″ X 3″. I’ve used both in the card above. The bigger card is larger than a normal card base so I’ve altered that measurement.

This is a simple diagonal card design. I cut the designer series paper (DSP) on the diagonal, point to point and used both pretty patterns. The stamp set is Attention Shoppers and the sentiment is perfect for this card with the two gift bags.

If you open the card you will find a tuck spot for a gift card or voucher.

This card continues the theme of saying goodbye to the 2022 – 2024 in-colours. The colours featured here are Starry Sky, Orchid Oasis and Sweet Sorbet. I am going to miss them. They are gorgeous.

The Mini Envelope Pocket die cuts out this cute little pocket. It will fit a gift card or a tag. I’ve made it my focal point here with the tag for a hidden message.

I’ve used this set previously to make a few cards. I decided to step it up with this card and use heat embossing alongside the ink blending. All the stamping is heat embossed with silver embossing powder. It will resist the ink blending, leaving the silver metallic lines.

I’ve coloured this card using the matching stencils. This gives these florals this lovely shading.

All the papers here are from the Inked Botanicals Designer Series Paper (DSP) pack. Aren’t they pretty? I would never have thought to have used Lost Lagoon and Calypso Coral together but they work well with each. I will definitely use this colour combo again.

The stamp set is Phrases for All and is quickly becoming a favourite. I love the font. It has an art deco vibe to me. What do you think? I made this card in two colour variations, which do you like best?
