Each one of today's cards is a little bit different, but they all start with the same thing. TRIANGLES. Using some simple cutting, you can create a colorful background for any type of cards.- Cut out a cardstock square.
- Then, lay the square on your paper trimmer on the diagonal, trim to make two large triangles, and then trim each triangle to become two smaller ones.
- Repeat for four different sheets of cardstock, and you'll have triangles for a variety of cards.
- Reassemble the cardstock square onto the card base, using a triangle from each color, and then finish the card.
For the first card, I made a simple square shaped card and added a die cut sentiment on top. Simple, simple, right?
Next up, I used up lots of little bits of numbers from other projects for a fun jumbled look. (I'm pretty sure it means, "You're HOW old?" ;) And for the last card, I simply changed the layout of the four triangles.
Today the designers at Impression Obsession are taking one more day to celebrate the new stamps and dies released this month - like the Birthday Words and Big Numbers dies. These are dies that I am already using over and over again, and they're a great addition to my crafty stash!

What a cool idea! I've never thought to use triangles as a background. All of your cards turned out fabulous.
Lovely job on your cards. On the first one I noticed the number 3 was missing. Was there something significant about that one? Inside joke maybe?[Bunny]
