Nip of Irish Cheer

>> Monday, March 11, 2024

 

Hello Crafty friends. I have a St. Patty's Day card to share with you using a technique called Stack, Cut, Shuffle. The idea of the technique is to get several cards out of just a few different papers to quickly build up your stash.  This is also another way you can stretch your supplies for a few different cards.

For my card today, I focused on using St. Patrick's colors.

  • I grabbed a dark green and a light green card stock and stacked them together holding on to them very tightly and then making just 2 cuts on them.
  • Once I had the layers cut, I used one piece of the dark green and one piece of the light green and layered them with the white card base.
  • Next, I stamped the NIP OF IRISH CHEER GREETING - 319G in dark green on the light green.
  • The card was finished by adding doodled dash marks (faux stitching) on all of the layers.

I hope you give the technique a try. I have used it with solid card stock but it works well with designer paper too. Thank you so much for stopping by to check out my card this week.
