Stampin’ Up! Christmas Quilt Tutorial

Filed under: Projects — July 23, 2008 @ 7:12 pm

I haven’t posted any projects in sooo long.  So here’s a Christmas in July treat.  One of my convention swaps will be this Christmas Quilt card.  Of course you can make the same card with any color combination.  The new Heard from the Heart stamp set comes with 4 great sentiments too.  The colors I used are Riding Hood Red, Kiwi Kiss and Bella Rose DSP.  SU is having a class challenge contest – I’ll have to enter this project!

1. Cut your pieces – 3×3 Kiwi base, 3 1/4 x 3 1/4 Kiwi mat and 6-1″pieces of DSP

2.  Adhere 4 of the squares to the corners of your base piece – right to the edge of the cardstock.  Add a 5th square to the center.  Then cut your last square diagonally in half then in half again to make quarters.

3.  Adhere the quarters to the center edge of your base.

Adhere to your mat and card.  Stamp a sentiment.   Try using a different pattern of squares or add a button to the center.

I hope to share more convention swaps with you before I leave next week.
