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.

  • Gather Together Tag Punch Fun Fold


    Check out this fun fold card Deloris made for a recent Team swap.  Our theme was fun folds from the 2020 Holiday catalog. 

    She used the Gather Together bundle seen here and the Scalloped Tag Topper punch seen here.  


    Her colors are Cajun Craze, Pretty Peacock, Early Espresso & Sahara Sand.  The tag punch is pushed in to create the design on both edges and then the sides are trimmed with a paper trimmer.  A really lovely design!  

    I'll be sharing more of my Team Fun-fold card swaps next week!
