I chose to feature the Thoughtful Moments DSP with this neat technique. Simply choose two dies that are the same shape and about 1/4-1/2" apart. Die-cut and then flip over the narrow frame to reveal the opposite side of the Designer Series Paper. It's so neat!
**This Designer Paper and many more will be on sale starting Tuesday, August 6th! Details will be shared tomorrow.
The leaf die is from the Friends for Life dies. My nesting dies are called Countryside Corners and can be seen here.
Tip – be sure the color of the opposite side of your paper coordinates with the front. I chose the card base to match the frame – Pretty Peacock. My greeting is in Fresh Freesia.
Here are both cards shown on the video; the second card on the right has a Lost Lagoon frame & card base. The White die-cut on the right card is from the Thoughtful Wishes bundle.
The designer paper for these cards is 4" X 5 1/4" which leaves a 2" strip for another project. I wanted to share a quick card to use up that leftover piece:
I simply added it to the card base with a coordinating card stock strip on the edge. Then added layering circles for my greeting.
If you're wondering about the ribbon, it's the pretty Iridescent 1/2" striped trim seen here. I cut it in half to get 1/4" thick trim. It has been unavailable for awhile but it's back now.
Here are all 4 cards I shared in the video you can see here.
Here's the video below to see how this is done plus another card idea with the beautiful Thoughtful Journey designer paper. I'll share the second card Wednesday.
It's held together with a belly band with a greeting attached. She used the Bright & Beautiful designer paper – it carried over from last year's annual catalog and can be seen online here.
Her colors include Calypso Coral and Pecan Pie. She cased this card from Karen Ksenzahovie from Creative Stamping Designs. I like the little details of the three DSP strips under the coffee cups. Her greeting is heat embossed in White.

Mary also featured the A Little Latte designer paper and the Latte Love bundle. These products can be seen online here.
Her colors include Pecan Pie with Lost Lagoon and White. She trimmed off an inch from the left front to reveal the cute trio of die-cut coffee cups inside. Cute detail!
Thanks for hanging in with us to see all of the July Team swaps!
See the Round we Go bundle here.Her background paper is from the Country Woods DSP seen here.Her colors are Smoky Slate, Petal Pink and Pool Party with White. What a fun and eye-catching card!
Lori made this one with the Spotlight on Nature dies and the Butterfly Paper Accents seen here.
Unfortunately the Spotlight on Nature dies are unavailable again – this must be the third time since they were released! Her colors include Crumb Cake, Pretty in Pink and Summer Splash with White. The amazing Dotted Circles 3D embossing folder is featured on her background. Love how it fits so perfectly with the circles! It's in low inventory but you can see that here.

Candy made this beautiful card with the Sketched Butterfly bundle seen here.
I love her soft colors of Lost Lagoon with Smoky Slate, Black and Very Vanilla. She used Lost Lagoon & Smoky Slate Blends markers to color that pretty butterfly. She also used the dark Lost Lagoon blends marker to color her Black & Very Vanilla large check ribbon.
Tomorrow I'll post the last of the July Team swaps.
