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.

I bet this year many of us will be giving gift cards more than ever. This social distancing is hard but during the Holiday's it's going to be so tough! If you are missing celebrating with your family this year I feel for you. Holidays are meant to be enjoyed together. But if it keeps us and them safe I'm sure it's the right decision. But we don't have to like it, right?!
Here's a fun gift card holder you can make to give those gift cards in.
Below are the Multipurpose Glue stands we're making. They're available in my Shop here.

On my Stamp with Me Live I shared these cards and how easy it is to make an explosion card.
These cards look pretty ordinary from the front but there's a surprise inside; see below:
Isn't it cool? And it's super easy to do. It's a 6" square of designer paper that you fold in halves with a bone folder. No measuring at all!
Here's the template for the explosion card.
Here's a masculine birthday made with the Plaid Tidings designer paper and Many Mates stamp set.
These are so fun to make. And you can add a bit more fun to the card by adding in some confetti, punched pieces or sequins to the inside. What a surprise they'll enjoy!
