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


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.

    First is a 9 card kit called Painted Skies and it’s a big WOW.

    See what I mean? This is an all inclusive kit that has no stamping required. You’ll be especially proud to give these cards away.

    Each one is a fun fold card that opens once and then once more. It comes with everything you need to complete them. Pre-stamped greetings, die-cut beachy elements, Dimensionals, gems and adhesive. It’s $18 and you can see it here.

    The second new kit is a big Scrapbooking kit called Sunniest Stories and can be seen here.

    It can create at least 12 pages like the two above! That’s 6 double layouts in 12 X 12″ size.

  • A WOW card with Swirled Designs


    This is one of those cards you will not soon forget; the Swirled Designs bundle is so cool!

    See what I mean? The colors include Blueberry Bushel, Shaded Spruce & White. Striking, bold colors for a celebratory card. The stars are die-cuts from the Swirled Designs dies.

    The Swirled Designs bundle was a sleeper; not many people have used it. But once you do…. you’ll want to use it over and over. See the stamp set here and the dies here. You can choose the bundle here, but the dies are discounted which makes it almost the same cost to order separately. It’s on the Last Chance list unfortunately; only available while supplies last.

    For the greetings I used the Reason to Celebrate stamp set. Wonderful and specific greeting images you will love. See it here.

    It’s a simple fun fold card where you score the front one extra time. I used the Garden Poetry DSP for the left side panel. That’s where I got the idea for my colors.

    If you’d like the free project sheet for this card click here. You can download or print it for future projects.

    Below is the video tutorial. Please follow me on Facebook here or my YouTube Channel here so you don’t miss a thing!
