Multiple ideas for the new Meandering Meadows DSP; with free project sheet & video

Last week's Live video featured the new and stunning Meandering Meadows designer paper. I shared 4 great ways to use it from quite simple to a special fun fold card. This designer paper is a new release among our Online Exclusives. There are lots of new products out this week; see them all here. 

Today I'm sharing this card; a new way to feature both sides of your designer paper.

See how the upper left and lower right corners are flipped?  I simply marked the edges at 2 1/2" and cut off each corner.  Then flipped it over to show the opposite side of the designer paper.  

Next add a thin strip of coordinating Garden Green card stock.

The second card above is made with Balmy Blue. The greetings are from the So Sincere stamp set in the 2023 Holiday catalog; a go to favorite of mine.  The greeting die-cut on the left is the 'All That' dies and the right is the Lasting Label punch.

• The Gang’s All Meer cute window card

  January 22, 2020

  ---

  This stamp set was one of the top free choices at my New Catalog Launch party earlier this month.  People are loving it!

  Save

  I chose to create a window card to highlight these cute critters.  We stamped them in Early Espresso and colored in with Crumb Cake blends markers. 

  **Did you know that when stamping an image you plan to color with our Blends markers you can use any color of our Classic ink pads?  They are water based and the markers are alcohol based.  

  See the stamp set here.  It's a free choice you receive for any $50 order during our Sale-a-Bration promotion. This lasts through March.

  Details:

  • Coastal Cabana frame is 4" X 3 1/2" and I used a 2 5/8" square die to cut the window.

  • 1 3/8" scalloped circle for the greeting and 1 1/2" circle in Daffodil Delight
  • two 1/2" X 4" strips of Birthday Bonanza designer series paper
  • The twine bow is from the Metallic Baker's Twine & Sequins combo pack; another FREE Sale-a-Bration choice!

• Honey Bee & Little Ladybug; choice!

  January 21, 2020

  ---

  I received this gorgeous swap card from my friend Diana Gibbs. I just love it!  

  Save

  Sweet and simple; but a big wow in my opinion.  The bees are colored with Blends markers in Seaside Spray and Mango Melody plus a little Wink of Stella on the wings.

  That pretty Golden Honey Specialty designer paper is one of the FREE choices in our Sale-a-Bration catalog right now.

  Save

  Get it free with any $50 order through March. But beware that some items do not last through the promotion; they've been known to run out of some items before the promotion ends. 

  The circles are 1 3/4" and the bees are die-cut using the Detailed Bee Dies.  These come in a bundle with the stamp set at 10% off.  See them here.   It pairs beautifully with the Golden Honey designer paper above.

  My friend Judith had a workshop this weekend and she loves the Little Ladybug stamp set so I gave them a choice of two cards.  She was so excited to earn this stamp set FREE with her workshop order.

  Remember that I'm giving away one set in January!  Everyone who places an online order from me will be entered in the drawing.

  I used a Light Flirty Flamingo Blends marker and the Wink of Stella and So Saffron ink for the belly. A bit of Petal Pink for the faces and sponging on the circles as well.  We added Gold pearls for an accent which pairs nicely with the Golden Honey specialty DSP. 

  The card stock measures 4" X 5 1/4" white, DSP is 1 7/8" X 5" and the Black is 2" X 5".  The circles here are 3/4", 1 1/2" and 1 3/4" in size. 

  Below you can see how we stamped the inside of the card.
