Four Corner cards Technique
Borrowed from Patty Bennett @ PatttyStamps.com
I loved this idea from Patty and had to try my own. So I started with a pattern of snowflakes
I stamped on a piece of Basic White cardstock that is 10" x 7 1/2" using multiple colors and patterns creating a cross on the paper. You can see the pattern I used in this picture
When the cardstock is cut into four pieces, each 3 3/4" x 5", you have the card fronts for 4 cards. Each card will have a similar design but the stamping will be in a different corner. Add a mat that is 4" x 5 1/4" and then add this to a card base and you will have four beautiful cards to decorate as you like. Hope you can see the splatter of Wink of Stella that I used.
I used Azure Afternoon, Coastal Cabana, Boho Blue and Pretty Peacock for my snowflakes. I used the snowflake images from two stamp sets: Sparkling Snowflakes and One of a Kind.
I started with the largest image, using the darkest color (Pretty Peacock) and stamped randomly down the center and across the center. Next I stamped in the Azure Afternoon in a random pattern, filling in a few of the empty spots. Then the Coastal Cabana and last the Balmy blue.
I cut the snowflakes from Silver Foil to decorate the cards. Did you know that the die from One of a Kind cuts the snowflake image in Sparkling Snowflakes? Perfect product coordination that Stampin' Up! is so famous for.
Then I added the wonderful labels using the Peaceful Season Bundle.

I would love to know what stamp set you might use for this technique. Leave a comment to share.
