I demonstrated the super fun Stack & Shuffle Technique for my Teach Me Tuesday Facebook Live this week, and I love it! (Some folks call this Stack, Cut, & Shuffle Technique but I like my shorter name–it sounds like a fun dance!)
Stack & Shuffle Technique is where you take a stack of DSP, cut it, shuffle it, and then lay it out in a patchwork quilt-type pattern to make beautiful backgrounds in minutes. It's a wonderful DSP card idea helping you USE vs hoard your DSP!
Tips & Tricks:
- This works best with small patterns.
- You need some contrast in your patterns.
- You can cut all 4 pieces at once–with ease–with your Stampin' Up! Paper Trimmer
DSP: 5-1/4" x 4"
- On the short side, cut the stack at 2-3/4"
- Take that stack and cut on the long side at 3"
- Now take the long skinny stack from your first cut and cut at 2"
Be sure to watch my video below for the step by step demonstration.
