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.

  • Pretty Pumpkin bundle in Gold!


    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!  

    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.

  • The Pretty Pumpkins bundle slipped right by me!


    I regret not ordering the Pretty Pumpkins set after seeing what my friend Marilyn made with it.  Look at these gorgeous images!

    She made them for my New Catalog launch last week. I think they're simply beautiful and that greetings font is beautiful!! 

    She made 3 cards for our display and this is the second one.  I'll share the last one soon.  

    The pretty paper is from the Harvest Meadow Designer Series Paper.  I believe she used the baby wipe technique for the left pumpkin.  For the right one she added Wink of Stella to the die-cut pumpkin.  

    Again; look at the stunning font on this fabulous greeting.  I have so many friends I'd give this card to!  

    My Online BOGO is today!  Click here on my FB page and go to media/photos/BOGO album to see everything available through August 14th.  If you have a list of current Stampin' Up! items you want to buy why not double dip and get lots more free?!

  • Peaceful Cabin card; easier than I thought!!


    Tomorrow is an exciting day!  The Holiday AND the 2nd  Sale-a-Bration catalogs go live tomorrow.  Tuesday August 3rd you can now order from them. 

    *If you do not have a demonstrator or either of these catalogs contact me and I'll send you them.  

    I wanted to have a sample of this pretty bundle at my Holiday Catalog Launch party last week so I had a play with it.  I was so surprised on how easy it is to create with! 

    I stamped everything in Smoky Slate for a soft look. The card front is mostly two pieces.  The trees were stamped on the upper part of a 5 1/4" X 3 1/2" piece of White card stock.  The cabin and greeting were stamped on the same size piece.   

    Then I used the cabin edge die to cut the silhouette of it.  I adhered the tree layer to the Basic Gray card stock first.  Then added the cabin layer with dimensionals.  I added a few silver foil trees to the side; these are also dies in this set. 

    Remember you can order this bundle tomorrow Tuesday, August 3rd here. 

    Join me for my FB Live BOGO Sale tomorrow at 11 am CT here.
