2 fabulous cards with the Hand-Penned Designer Paper


I have two pretty cards to share with you today; both from my Flowerbug Team swaps in June.  Both are made with the Hand-Penned DSP which is on sale right now.  Instead of $11.50 it's just $9.78.  See the sale on all 9 packs of Designer Paper here. 

First is a card by Marilyn.  She made a corner latch card.  I've shared a few of those in the past weeks; it's a fabulous and super simple but special fold anyone can make.  Below are the measurements. 

She made it even more special by adding a 'stitched' corner to hers.  She used a few sets of dies here; the Triangle and Pierced Bloom dies all in the Annual Catalog.  The greeting is from the In Bloom stamp set.  

Measurements: 

  • Card base 4 1/4" X 11", scored at 5 1/2". Trim off 2 3/4" from one end & save.
    DSP – 2 pieces at 2 1/2" X 4"
    Corner is 2 1/4" square; cut in half on the diagonal
    White inside is 3" X 4 1/4"

Next is a card Karen made using Misty Moonlight and our new In Color Shimmer vellum.   

She used the Penned Flower dies for the flowers and the Scalloped Contours dies for the scalloped White greeting.  Her card really shows off this pretty patterned paper!

  • Life is Beautiful with So Much Happy? Yes!


    Here are two more cards I created on a Facebook Live for Demonstrators last week.  It was such an honor to be asked to present cards highlighting my Million Dollar stamp set; Life is Beautiful.  

    Unfortunately I cannot share the video but I can share the projects! 

    Which one do you prefer?  Blues & purples or rainbow colors? Here they are separately: 

    I used Gorgeous Grape, Highland Heather, Bermuda Bay, Coastal Cabana and Pool Party and stamped the Bokeh dots image. 

    Then I added the Happy die-cut across it at an angle.  I also cut a separate White CS strip to place under the Happy die-cut.  The 'to celebrate you' is from the So Much Happy stamp set stamped on a die-cut from the Ornate Frames dies. 

    Have you decided on your favorite yet?  

    I'll be sharing another card with my Life is Beautiful stamp set tomorrow.  Do you have yours yet?  If not go here to order!

    The colors are Pumpkin Pie with Blackberry Bliss taken from the pretty Plaid Tidings designer paper seen here.  Stampin' Up! is amazing at color combination with the papers.  This versatile paper is on sale through October!

    • Plaid Tidings DSP – 2 pieces at 4" X 3/4" 

    Details:

    • I stamped the tree in Early Espresso and the leaves in Pumpkin Pie & Blackberry bliss, stamping off once or twice first. 
    • I added a few 'Sequins for Everything' among the leaves. 
    • The greeting label is cut with the Ornate Frames dies and sponged with Pumpkin Pie ink.
