Save this template! 4 quick cards with the new Iconic Celebrations DSP. Video & free project sheet too
I have something brilliant to share with you today. How would you like to use two 6" sheets of DSP to make 8 easy but multi-layered cards? I used an easy template with simple measurements to create some fabulous cards. Here's one of my favorites:
It starts out with two sheets of 6 X 6" DSP; in this case the new Iconic Celebrations from the Online Exclusives seen here. *Two sheets of 6" DSP will make 8 cards. You can opt to use just one sheet and not have any variation.
You'll cut each 6 X 6" designer paper piece into four 3" squares. Then cut three of those into a few pieces like this (one is left whole):
The photo above gives you the DSP AND layering cardstock measurement. You can find the other measurements for the supporting layers on my free project sheet.
Besides the Iconic Celebrations DSP, I used a few other new Online Exclusives products – the Everyday Greetings stamp setand the Greetings of the Season bundle seen here.

On the project sheet it lists the products I used. The ribbons here are the Iridescent 1/2" striped trim and the Gold & Silver 1/8" trim combo pack from the Annual Catalog.

I have a ton of Valentine's swaps I want to share with you too. Most of these are made by my stamping friends. I cannot give credit to all of them as their post-it or business card was lost as my local customers browsed through them.
My friend Susie Wood made this adorable Hello Ladybug card. She used the Checks & Dots embossing folder on the Red layer.
This cute card lost it's post-it so I cannot give credit. I love how the panels are cut apart but the Sweet Talk designer paper still shows it's pattern.
This next card is so cute!! It was also made by my friend Susie Wood. I love the chalkboard effect of stamping on Black with White Craft ink. Nuts & Bolts is the stamp set & the Gingham embossing folder was used on the background.

There will be a change in Paper Pumpkin pricing going forward. Here's what Stampin' Up! has recently stated:
Despite Covid’s continued strain on the global economy, Stampin’ Up! has been working diligently to maintain the lowest possible price for our Paper Pumpkin subscription box, including absorbing costs to prevent price increases. However, as we continue to see greater cost increases to raw materials, shipping, and overhead, we have made the decision to increase pricing in order to maintain the high quality and value of the monthly kit. On 1 March 2022, Paper Pumpkin kits will see a slight increase in price.
But, there is a way to get the current prices for Paper Pumpkin and save money going forward. Prepaid codes–both redeemed and unredeemed–purchased before the 1 March price change will maintain their full value. No additional payment will be required.
So here's my suggestion for you:
Purchase a pre-paid subscription in February for 3 month, 6 months, or 12 months and get it at the current lower price for that entire time period! Go here to order yours.
Plus with a pre-paid subscription you can earn free Sale-a-Bration choices at the same time. It's a WIN WIN choice!
And besides the free Sale-a-Bration choice you'll also receive free gifts (Gingham embossing folder & a calendar kit!) from me with your online order in February. See details below.
Watch this short video to see what is included in each kit:

It's a fun surprise each month! But they share hints before the kit mails too!
Here's the bonus project I created with the Hugs & Kisses February kit. It's so fun to use the elements in the kit to create something fun & different!
I changed them up a bit but kept the same premise of a die-cut circle with these gorgeous Honeybee Blooms dies in silhouette. I added a bit of color on the White layer before texturing them. The card above features the Gingham embossing folder.
Here are the 6 cards I made; one with each color of Designer Paper in the Simply Marbelous DSP pack. This beautiful paper is FREE through February, 2022 with any $50 Stampin' Up! order. See it here.
For each card I used one of the greetings in the Honeybee Home stamp set which is part of the Honeybee Home bundle seen here. The greeting dies are from the Ornate Frames dies in the Annual catalog seen here.
This incredible Simply Marbelous 6 X 6" DSP is still available; if you want it I'd get it now while they still have a supply. It's always possible it could run out before the end of February.
One neat thing about this pretty designer paper is each sheet has a softer, less distinct pattern and this beautiful swirly pattern. And each color is a combination of light & dark hues so it works with many, many shades of each color!
