Print Poetry Quilted Card

I found this great card idea from Lyssa Griffith-Zwolanek and changed up the colors and sentiment stamps.  I love it when I find the cute "quilted" cards.  I've never made a real quilt, but my Mom enjoyed making a few and I've always loved the hand-made snuggly quilts.  So, since I'm not much for sewing, I enjoy making them on paper.

Both cards are made from the Print Poetry Designer Series Paper Stack.  What is even cooler, is that the both cards are made from the same three pieces of Print Poetry.  The great  Midnight Muse and Crumb Cake squares are on the other side of the Raspberry Ripple and Primrose Petals.  I love how that turned out!  There are several great color combinations in this DSP Stack.



This was such an easy card to make!  Using your 1 3/8" Square Punch, punch out 3 squares of three different DSP patterns.  Start by adhering one down dead center on the card stock.  Attach the other squares alternately around the first one to form the pattern used.  Trim up any that goes off the card (using the leftovers for the opposite side).  That's all there is to it.  So simple and so cute.  

Attach a ribbon around the two top layers and adhere to the main card stock.  Stamp and attach a favorite sentiment and you've got a great card for any purpose you need.
