Blue Quilt Square Card

 I found this gorgeous blue card with an interesting quilt-like design on a reel by "The Pampered Stamper". It took me a while to find her dimensions, again, but it was worth the effort! Since then, several other people have also designed these "square quilt cards".  Hers uses a Memories and More card base, which makes the card a little bigger, as well as the squares.  I have since found a more "traditional" version, which I will try sometime soon! Anyway, this one uses Product of the Month (POTM) offerings - which BTW, are still available with qualifying purchase.  It uses the gorgeous True Blue Florals from December, and the Fabulous Sayings from January! For the embossed background, the new Stone and Vine in the Online Store! So, enjoy, and I WILL be trying this one, with one of our awesome DSP's soon!


Measurements:  

  • Basic White Assorted Memories and More Cards & Envelopes
  • Basic White: 4"x 6" (embossed), 1 1/8" x 4" (sentiment), scraps
  • Night of Navy: 3 1/2" square, 1 1/4" x 4" (layer), scrap
  • Balmy Blue: 2 3/4" square
  • True Blue Florals DSP (POTM): 2 pcs @ 3 1/2" square
To Make This Card:

  • Run White layer through new, Stone & Vine Embossing Folder.  Adhere to pre-cut and folded Memories & More Card Base.
  • Lightly mark the center of this square(1 3/4") .
  • Fold the 2 DSP squares in half, diagonally. Then, adhere to Navy Square with Multipurpose Glue, centering the creases and having them go "vertically".
  • Next, die cut a 2 1/4" square in Balmy Blue,  from the Stylish Shapes Dies
  • Attach this to the center of the Navy Square, on top of the DSP.
  • Then, cut, and attach 1 1/2" White square to the center of the Balmy Blue square.
  • Next, fold back the tips of the DSP over the Balmy Blue square, as shown.
  • Finish the "square", with a 1" die cut square over the points to keep them in place, and a small sentiment, in Navy ink, die cut with a small banner.
  • NOW, I adhere the "Navy Square" to the front of the card, so the top tips miss the top of the card base.
  • Cut the point that extend on the sides, or tuck them behind before attaching the embossed base (plan ahead).
  • Finish the rest of the card with a sentiment of your choice, and scattered Moody Palette Glossy Dots.
