How to use up those DSP strips! Video & free project sheet

July 13, 2026

I shared this pretty card on last week’s Live video. It’s a great way (and easy too) to use up those scraps of DSP you’re saving.

Here I used the Violet Dreams DSP along with the Framed Violets bundle & Highland Heather ink.

I started out with 1/2″ thick strips of DSP and adhered the first to a Peaceful Pine CS layer at an angle. Then simply continue to add more strips leaving a space between each. Trim off the excess on all edges and adhere to a larger Peaceful Pine CS layer.

Adhere to your card base, add a greeting and die-cut accents and you’re done!

I created a free project sheet with photo, measurements and directions. Click here to print it or download it.

And below is the video tutorial for this card and one more using the Violet Dreams suite seen here.

Fantastic fun fold cards made with the Round We Go bundle!

June 27, 2024
Today I'm sharing the second half of our Team's Artist of the Month projects. Paula did an amazing job showcasing the Round We Go bundle seen here.

Most of her cards featured today are fun folds. This first card is among my favorites because of the colors; I love the freshness of the blues and yellows together.

Save

She used Blueberry Bushel, Azure Afternoon, Lemon Lolly & Daffodil Delight as well as the Country Lace designer paper seen here. I love how she die-cut the extra detailed circle around the greeting.

This card is a gift card too; here's the inside view:

Save

Measurements:
- Card base 5 1/2" X 4 1/4"
- White card fold 4" X 8" scored at 4"
- DSP 3 3/4" square and two 1" X 4" strips
Next is a deceiving card front that opens up to something quite unique.

Save

I love how she made the rosette look like a round bow on a gift. Her colors include Berry Burst, Daffodil Delight, Fresh Freesia and Petunia Pop. Here's the inside view of this card:

Save

The pop up flap is an extra piece added under the lower White piece. It's 5" square; scored at 3/4", 1 1/2" and 2 5/8". then cut at an angle to the last score line. Each White layer is 5" X 4".

See this unique bundle here. It's discounted through Sunday.

Save

This last card is also somewhat deceptive. It makes the most of the pretty Full of Life designer paper on the front as well as a stamped rosette with Pretty in Pink ribbon.

Save

It opens up to reveal a simple opening.

Measurements:
- Card base 9 1/4" X 4 1/4" score at 5 1/2"
- DSP 3 1/2" X 4" and 1 1/2" X 4"
- White inside 3 1/2" X 4"
Save

Aren't her projects wonderful? She really showcased this neat bundle beautifully.

Fabulous projects with the Round We Go Bundle and it’s on sale through Sunday!

June 26, 2024

Today I'm sharing the first set of projects by our Artist of the Month for June. Paula chose the Round We Go bundle to create with and she did an incredible job!

Save

This bundle is on sale through June – an extra 20% off. It was $45 and is now just $40 for all of the above. See it here.

This first card features multiple dies and a stamped background too. The designer papers used for the rosettes include Full of Life and the In Color 6" X 6" prints.

Save

Her colors include Boho Blue & Peach Pie with White.

Next is a fun patriotic card she made for her nephew who is in the military. It sure reminds me of decorative bunting!

Save

Her colors are Red, White & Navy with Crumb Cake. She stamped the circles with one of the stamps in the set. Love her creativity!

Next up is a fun card with two 'lollipops' made with the dies in the bundle.

Save

Her colors include Shy Shamrock, Vanilla and Crumb Cake. She layered at least 3-4 of the Crumb Cake 'feel better soon' dies together for a fantastic raised look.

Next is this amazing box. I haven't seen anyone do a half rosette to decorate a box top before! It's genius!

Save

Her colors are Blueberry Bushel and Lemon Lime Twist. I don't have measurements for the box but it's about 2 3/4" square and over 2" tall.

Save

Here's another box she made where she stamped the entire box with many of the image in the set.

Save

Her box is made from Lemon Lolly card stock and she added a layered stamped greeting made from one of the dies in the set. It's almost like a long milk carton box that closes at the top with twine. Neat!

Aren't her projects amazing? She really showcased this neat bundle. Stop back tomorrow for the rest of her projects!
