FAST FRIDAY - Stampin' Up Printed Window Sheets

Stampin' Up's new "printed window sheets" are terrific for making beautiful, yet quick, cards.



Each window sheet can be cut into the perfect size for a standard sized card (4 1/4" x 5 1/2"). That means we get four cards from each sheet, although sheets can be cut into any size you want, in order to get even more mileage. Each package of window sheets costs only $5.95 & includes 8 different preprinted pretty white images (two sheets with 4 images on each). See for yourself in the Occasions Mini Catalog on page 10!



You might be wondering why no adhesive can be seen through the clear acetate window sheet. There are several sneaky ways to attach the window sheet so you don't see adhesive. One way is to apply the adhesive underneath cs that is adhered over the top of the window sheet. Here I applied adhesive only underneath the Baja Blue cs oval & scalloped oval which are folded in half around the edges. I've used one of last year's "In-Colors" called Blue Bayou to pair with Baja Blue on this card, but if you don't have that color, Not Quite Navy would be an excellent alternative. FYI, Baja Blue is a current "In-Color".



I also added one of the new corduroy brads (page 6 in the same Occasions Mini Catty). Aren't they cute as a button? Actually, there are buttons and brads included in this set. The last thing I did on this card was to adhere the entire piece to the card front.



Easy peasy. Quick as can be. Consider getting some printed window sheets to make quick cards that look very professional. You don't even have to do any stamping on this one that already says "thank you"!
