A fun way to use your Designer Paper scraps!

June 26, 2026

Is it hard for you to toss those small pieces of designer paper pieces? Well, if you’re a ‘saver’ I have a quick card idea for you.

Here I used the pretty Velvet Meadow specialty designer paper from our Online store. It has velvet/flocked accents that feel soft and fuzzy. See it here.

Unfortunately it’s currently out of stock but it will be back! Add your email to the product page so you’re notified when it’s available.

I cut three different patterns of DSP in 1/2″ wide strips. I added them to a piece of Peaceful Pine card stock (3″ X 4 3/4″) at an angle. I left a narrow space between them all and trimmed off the ends afterwards. Then I layered it on another Peaceful Pine piece slightly larger before adding it to my Bubble Bath card base.

Tip: Adding the designer paper layer on the left and adding the greeting strip hanging off on the right adds balance to the card.

Here’s the coordinating Flowering Meadow bundle; see it here.

The greeting is made with the Scalloped Blooms dies. The flower and leaves are fussy cut from the designer paper. A quick and pretty card!

3 neat cards with the All Squared Away bundle; FB Live replay

August 5, 2021
Here are the cards I made on last Tuesday's FB Live featuring the All Squared Away bundle. Fresh Freesia is the color of the day!

Save

I stamped the solid images in the set in three colors; Fresh Freesia, Pool Party & Pear Pizzazz. Then I trimmed them so they'd fit behind the die-cut floral squares. I added rolled up mini glue dots for just a bit of a lift and added them to the White layer. Sometimes you want a lift that's not very thick; rolled up glue dots do the trick! That next texture is the Bark 3D folder I used seen here.

Save

The greeting is from Biggest Wish stamp set – stamped on Fresh Freesia CS and fussy cut. Those pretty gems are the fabulous, iridescent In Color jewels.

This next card is a unique color combination gatefold card made with the same bundle:

Pretty Pumpkin bundle in Gold!

August 4, 2021

Marilyn made this card for my display last week using the Pretty Pumpkins bundle seen here. She used the Gold & Rose Gold Metallic specialty paper here on her layer and die-cuts. She got the idea from a card made by Christi Redding. It's gorgeous!

Save

I had a hard time getting a great photo of this card. The gold metallic paper is so much prettier than this photo shows!

She fussy cut her greeting and added some gold cording underneath. The texture on the Vanilla layer is from the Tasteful Textile folder.
