A fun way to use your Designer Paper scraps!

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!

• Masterfully Made suite samples; it’s extremely unique!

  June 12, 2023

  The Masterfully Made suite is so different and unique; you'll be surprised at these projects shared by Stampin' Up!

  

  This colorful paper including the flowers is all the designer paper; there is nothing raised or popped up here except the tags.  The die-cuts in the background are from the bundle seen here. 

    

  This next card shows off the Masterfully Made designer paper wonderfully.  It looks like it's many strips of torn paper.  

  

  It's not!  Look at this gorgeous designer paper below.  See the sheet, second from the upper right?  That's what they used!  
  They did stamp on it with one of the images in the bundle; heat embossing in White.  

  

  This gorgeous designer paper is discounted in June; instead of $12.50 it's $10.62.  See it here

  This last card shows off the stamps, designer paper and the neat notebook edge die-cut.  

  

  What do you think?  Is this suite your style?

• Fabulous Gone Fishing bundle swap cards

  June 11, 2023

  ---

  Father's Day is coming up Sunday and the Gone Fishing bundle is perfect for the occasion.  

  I received two swap cards on the cruise and thought you'd like to see them.  First is my friend Susie Wood's card.  Her style is similar to mine and we often share cards with each other. My husband and I spent time with her and her husband Deke on the cruise; not enough but we both treasure our friendship so much! Check out her fabulous blog here.  She is super creative and a master at fun folds. 

  

  Her colors are Night of Navy with Vanilla and Boho Blue. The tag is made with our Very Best Trio punch seen here. 

  Next is a card I received from Janet Holmes. The curvy border die-cut shows off wonderfully here.  

  

  Check out the Gone Fishing bundle here.  

  

  I'll have lots more to share with this bundle soon!

• Marvelous Nature Ombre technique with video tutorial

  June 9, 2023

  ---

  Today I'm sharing the other card I made during Tuesday's video.  Both featured the new set called Marvelous Nature.  

  
  

  I used an ombre technique where I inked the solid stamped image with three inks consecutively.  The top is Pool Party, the middle is Lost Lagoon and the bottom is Pretty Peacock.  

  
  

  You can see this pretty Marvelous Nature stamp set here. 

  The greeting is from the set but I did use the Stylish Shapes dies for it and popped it up on Dimensionals. 

  

  The card base is Lost Lagoon with two strips of Pretty Peacock under the main image.  As you can see by the photo below the left card is lighter than the right one.  In the video I went over the upper part of the image one more time using the Stamparatus; mostly so I could get a more solid, complete image.
