For the last three years I have participated in an organized OnStage swap event headed by my friend Micheal D. out of New Jersey. It takes a tremendous amount of effort and work to organize the swap and I am forever grateful that he continues to do them. The cards are awesome and it is so nice to see other demonstrators ideas and designs!

This was Birthday Swap #4 and each one of the swaps has 10 participants we make 11 cards one for Michael as a thank you for being the organizer and we get 9 different designs plus one of our own back!

Here are my birthday swap cards and a special happy birthday to my friend Jodi who is an April Fools baby!

My first swap card did not come with the demonstrator designer’s information (I received two like that so I am sorry I cannot give credit for this one. It is a fun fold card done with the Turtle-y Awesome Suite Collection and the Turtle-y Cute Designer Series Paper! This is such an easy fun fold cut a section off the right hand side of the card front and turn it 90 degrees and attach to the left hand side of the card front that is still attached – add DSP and decorations and you are done – easy peasy!

The second anonymous swap card features the Eyelet 3D embossing folder in Basic White CS set on Daffodil Delight and Balmy Blue CS to match the origami fold on the front focal point with the Mixed Up Patterns DSP.
The next swap card is a match book fun fold with a clever latch designed by Anne O. from Hawaii! The flap on the bottom tucks under the focal point on the card front which uses the Love Notes Mix and Match DSP for easy card making.
This Floral Charm DSP card uses the Pretty Florals stamp set for the flowers inside and out and the Simply Said Sentiment set for the words both of these stamp sets are on the Last Chance list and is a great all purpose sentiment set Simply Said #169057 it is low inventory so if you want it order soon!) (Pretty Florals stamp set is on sale for $13.30 from $19 #165177 and the coordinating dies are on sale for $29.60 from $37 #165178)
This is another swap on the Last Chance List this Turtle-y Cute DSP card (#165221 is on sale for $7.50 from $12.50) from Patti Jean W and so super cute!
This Birthday swap card from Joanne J. uses the Florals in Bloom DSP and the In Color 6″ x 6″ DSP
Kathy S’s OnStage Swap card uses the relatively new Cute as a Bug Suite Collection for this adorable center flap fun fold card!
My OnStage swap card featured the More Color Mondays card from back in January on the 19th for a great vellum technique and fun with the Petals of Beauty dies and the Beautiful Motifs bundle!
Andrea R.’s birthday swap card used the Cutest Crew stamps, Nature’s Symphony and Spotlight on Nature Dies, Pleasant Patterns DSP (on sale in Last Chance #166950 $9.00 originally $10) and the Delicate Dreams DSP. She also used the Damask Designs Embossing Folder which is on Last Chance as well #165214 $8.55 now originally $9.50.
Karen T. made this elegant and simple DSP card using the Delicate Dreams DSP and the sentiment is from the Simply Said sentiment Last Chance list set.

Love looking at other’s layouts, their color coordination and choices that they make – whether it is an over the top or simply stamped card they are all unique and give me plenty of ideas to discover!

Hope these inspired you – now it is your turn to go and create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’

card sketch #119 – 4 cards from one 6″ x 6″ DSP

card sketch #119 – 4 cards from one 6″ x 6″ DSP

by | Mar 27, 2026 | card samples, card sketches, Designer Series Paper, die cutting, embossing folders, stamps ink paper, techniques

This card sketch inspired 4 cards from this one sheet of gorgeous Thoughtful Journey DSP this was a carryover product last year and I do not anticipate that it will be carried over again so If you love watercolor landscaped images get this paper before it is gone!

Card sketch #119. is here and what will you do with it – so many possibilities!

Measurements:
BASE: Basic White CS: (2) pieces of 8 1/2″ x 11″
Score one at 4 1/4″ and then cut on the 11″
side at 5 1/2″, score the other at 5 1/2″ and
then cut at 4 1/4″
(4) 3 1/4″ squares, scraps for sentiments
DSP: (1) 6″ x 6″ sheet cut into (4) 3″ squares
then cut each 3″ square into (3) 1″ strips
Mossy Meadow CS: (4) 3 1/2″ squares

Emboss each of the card fronts of the card bases in the Birch Wood 3D embossing folder.

Cut each of the 3″ squares into 1″ strips, keeping in order adhere them to the 3 1/4″ Basic White squares.
Adhere each of the 3 1/4″ white squares to the 3 1/2″ Mossy Meadow CS squares.
Adhere the first square to the center of one of the embossed card fronts.
Stamp a sentiment from the Wonderful Thoughts Bundle and then die cut around the words. Adhere to the card front over the DSP.
Do the same for the rest of the cards! I added a few left over die cuts from a previous card from the Springtime Scenes die set on the last card!
two different card orientations but basically the same sketch!
Adhere three Natural Matte Dots to finish off the card with some coordinating embellishments. These gender neutral cards are perfect for ANY occasion just by changing the sentiment and the Wonderful Thoughts bundle is a great all sentiment set.

Check these items out before they leave!
Now it’s your turn to create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’

more color mondays – bubble bath, pretty in pink and secret sea

by | Mar 23, 2026 | card samples, color challenge, Designer Series Paper, die cutting, In Colors, more color mondays, my favorites, stamps ink paper

More Color Mondays today features Bubble Bath, Pretty in Pink and Secret Sea – in the Beach Boardwalk DSP pack there is a palm tree design which is super easy to make cards with – it has a border of palm trees on a bottom and top border – if you cut that page 5 1/4″ from the top and 5 1/4″ from the bottom edge you get two 12″ strips of palm trees – cut those again into 4″ pieces and you can make 6 of these cards from one sheet with paper from the middle to decorate the envelopes or the inside of the card!

Measurements:
BASE: Secret Sea CS: 4 1/4″ x 11″
scored at 5 1/2″
Basic White CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″
DSP: 4″ x 6″ cut to 4″ x 5 1/4″ save the extra for
inside decoration
Bubble Bath CS: 1/2″ strip
Pretty in Pink CS: 1/2″ strip

Cut the DSP into 4″ x 6″ pieces and then cut 3/4″ off the 6″ side.

Score the base card at 5 1/2″, adhere the Basic White layer to the inside of the card and adhere the 3/4″ x 4″ strip to the bottom of the Basic White layer. I reversed the pattern and used the B side for the inside decor.

I stamped Fun in the Sun from the Beach Time scrapbooking set in Pretty in Pink ink on the Bubble Bath cardstock strip. I stamped the sun image at the end of the sentiment. I tore the right-hand edge and adhered that strip to the Pretty in Pink cardstock strip. I offset the strips and tore the right-hand edge of the bottom strip to match the one on top!

I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the sentiment strips.

I adhered the DSP to the card front.

I then adhered the sentiment strip with Dimensionals over the DSP.

I added Pearlized Faceted Circles around the sentiment and this simple but awesome card is complete. When you have Designer Series Paper this nice it is so easy to make lovely cards!

Try a pack of our gorgeous DSP today and create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time.

Adhere the smaller stamps strategically around the larger star die.
Stamp the lines image in Tuxedo Black Memento ink on the other 4″ x 5 1/4″ layer and then the smaller star clusters in the matching ink for your cardstock color in each of the diagonal corners.

Score the base at 2 1/8″ and 4 1/4″, fold into a Z fold fun fold card.

Adhere to the inside of the card.

Place glue 1/4″ away from the edges of the front flap of the z-fold card base and adhere the other 4″ x 5 1/4″ paper that has the die cut on it.

Today’s More Color Monday color challenge was a bit of a mistake I picked the colors and had a card deign in mind using the Homemade Sweetness Designer Series Paper but these colors do not directly appear in the DSP color listing. I had already announced this color challenge last week and did not want to change anything so I went with it! Hopefully this will show you all that even if you do not have all the colors that are in the DSP you can still design cards that work well with the Paper!

I saw this fun fold design on a fellow demonstrator’s website that is in my sideline and she is super creative always an inspiration – thanks Susan C.

This fun fold is called the Peek Through Diamonds fun fold and although I used cut outs from the DSP that were a little larger than I wanted and you cannot see the peek through as I intended my card turned out OK – sometime a card you design is just not your favorite! And that is ok – some one will love it!

Measurements:
BASE: Crushed Curry CS: 5 1/2″ x 11″
cut off 2″ score at 1″, 1 1/2″, 2″, 6 1/4″, 6 3/4″
and 7 1/4″
Blueberry Bushel CS: 1/4″ x 5 1/2″, (3) 1 1/8″
squares
Berry Burst CS: 1 7/8″ x 5 1/2″ embossed
(3) 1 1/4″ squares
DSP: 1 3/4″ 5 1/2″, and 2″ x 5 1/2″ and scraps
for cut outs
Basic White CS: (3) 1″ squares

Mount the three Basic White squares to the Blueberry Bushel squares and then mount to the largest Berry Burst squares.
Cut the Base cardstock at 2″ to make the base 5 1/2″ x 9″. Score at 1″, 1 1/2″, and 2″ to make an accordian fold on the left side of the card base and then score at 6 1/4″, 6 3/4″ and 7 1/4″ to make an accordian fold on the right-hand side of the card.

Lay the 2″ piece on the right-hand side for spacing purposes and adhere the blueberry bushel gingham DSP to the opening on the inside of the card base.

The flap on the right-hand side of the card will be on the inside of the card – it looks like it is the outside piece but it is not.

Adhere the DSP to this inside flap.

Decide which cut outs to place on top, middle and bottom of the diamonds and then adhere glue dots on the back of each side point of the diamonds.
Place the 2″ Crushed Curry layer that you cut off of the base card over the DSP flap and adhere the glue dots one to the left hand flap and to the 2″ layer on the right-hand side. Line up the top of the diamond with the top of the inside of the card so it does not stick out further than the card dimensions.
I decided the right-hand flap looked to plain so I added the Berry Burst layer and embossed it with the Ladybug Picnic 3D embossing folder.
Adhere the other diamonds first to the sides of the card, then to the one above or below with glue dots.

I added a small strip of Blueberry Bushel CS to the left-hand flap to add more color.

I added three Pearlized Faceted Circles to the card for a little sparkle! The card is complete!

Try this fun fold it’s easy and with a fun peek through to see more of your Designer Series Paper. Now go and create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’
