Learn how to make 4 corner cards with Stampin’ Up! stamps, ink and paper to make a fun and colorful set of 4 cards at once! Scroll to the bottom of this post for the free video tutorial and the clickable supply list to purchase the Regal Flora set, Sketched Butterflies, or Secret Garden set shown in the video!
To make “4 Corner Cards” simply stamp a full 8-1/2″ x 11″ sheet of Stampin’ Up! Basic White cardstock, in a + pattern, then cutting it into 4 pieces, you get 4 cards with designs in the corners. Be sure to watch the video for my tip about cutting your cardstock down a bit first. Yesterday’s post featured floral cards with this technique. Today I elected to use butterflies in a great color combo inspired by Jennie’s video here.
In the video (bottom of the post) you’ll see 4 corner cards I created with the Regal Flora set, the Secret Garden set and the Sketched Butterflies.
I like to start with the largest image and darkest color. So, step 1, I did the largest of the butterflies mounted onto 1 block, stamped in Blueberry Bushel ink.
Above/Below: stamping the next 2 sizes of butterflies, I used Azure Afternoon and Balmy Blue ink.
Below: I flicked some blue ink with my Blueberry Bushel Stampin’ Blend marker, and then added flicks of Wink of Stella.
Above/Below: when you are happy with your stamping, cut your cardstock into 1/4ths, and mount onto cardstock card bases. See the video for cardstock cutting and layering tips.
Below: the stamped greetings I used for the Sketched Butterflies 4 Corner Cards. Tip: try out stamping on patterned paper like the Full of Life paper below, and punch with the Heartfelt Hexagon punch.
You can see by the cards above and below, each one turns out totally different. It’s tons of fun to cut the cardstock into 1/4th and see what you get!
