Quick card with the Violet Dreams DSP

July 14, 2026

Here’s the second card I made featuring the Violet Dreams suite. I shared it during last week’s video.

It showcases the pretty Violet Dreams DSP seen here. There are 3 pieces from the DSP on this card: the violets die-cut, the striped frame and the green DSP strip. This DSP has 2 sheets of die-cut ephemera included in the package. I love that; it opens up so many options when creating.

Besides the DSP I added the White layer behind the frame, the Hydrangea Hue ribbon and rhinestones. So quick!

Here’s the free project sheet for this card; click here.

Look closely at the coordinating colors on this card. Stampin’ Up! makes it so easy to create with perfectly matching colors. It’s my very favorite thing about SU.
I used the violets as the starting point and simply repeated each color once or twice on my project for a wonderfully cohesive look.

Tip: If you struggle with color coordination pick two colors and repeat them at least once if not twice on your project. This works!

Check out the video below where I shared on more pretty card featuring DSP strips.

Beautiful Vine Design with Oh So Ombre with video!

January 14, 2021

What do you think of the Oh So Ombre designer paper? Have you seen it yet? If not look here.

Save

It's a 6 X 6" pack of 48 sheets of Designer Series Paper. There are 2 designs and 4 colors in this pretty pack and it's FREE with any $50 order during Sale-a-Bration!

I created this card with it for a Flowerbug's swap a few weeks ago. The first card features the Bermuda Bay color in the pack.

Of course I chose to use all new products! The pretty stitched outline is from the Stitched with Whimsy dies seen here. I love that they don't actually cut; they just stitch a pretty outline. You can really notice the Ombre since I switched the die when I inserted it back in the window. Watch how in the video.

The intricate die is from the Flowering Vines die. It's part of the bundle with the Vine Design stamp set which is where the greeting images are from. See them here.
