Priscilla's Papercrafts: All Squared Away x 6

Last week I watched a video of Sara Douglass, CEO of Stampin' UP!, creating cards using the All Squared Away stamp set. She stamped the squares in different colors, cut each square to 1-1/2" x 1-1/2" and used the squares on her cards. It looked like fun, and I thought I'd give it a try.

I started by stamping each of the four squares using Gorgeous Grape, Pumpkin Pie, Bermuda Bay, Shaded Spruce, Real Red, Granny Apple Green, Coastal Cabana and Magenta Madness inks. Whew! When I was finished stamping and cutting, I had 32 squares in 8 colors. And then the fun began.

Sara made this card (using different colors):

Three of the squares with a greeting where the fourth square would be. I loved it, so I decided to play some more.

Sara also did a card like this, using multiple squares:

Somewhat challenging, but I still like the way it turned out.

But then I was on my own, with lots of squares left, so...

I think this may be my favorite.

And with Halloween coming, and having orange and purple squares on the table:

Fun, right?

Then I still had red and green squares, so this happened:

Can you see the squares? I got a little creative, making strips of the squares, then cutting them in half horizontally, and adding them to the card front.

I had a good time spending an evening stamping, cutting and creating. And ended up with 5 fun cards! I'm a fan of All Squared Away (and the coordinating Floral Squares dies, which I did not use here), and I know I'll be playing again.

Which is your favorite?
