Another Tip & Trick for Using Designer Paper for Card-making

Today we're discovering another Tip & Trick for Using Designer Paper for Card-making. Tuesday we created a really fun card by stamping directly on the designer paper...if you missed it check it out here Click here to see Tuesday's Card.

Again, today we're using the Peach Pie designer paper from the 2024-2026 In Color DSP pack--so many pretty colors to choose from!

Here's today's feature...

Circle

And a closer peak...

Circle cuUsing the same Peach Pie base and overlay...this time the overlay was dry embossed with the Dashing Designs embossing folder (in the annual catalog).

We selected the Peach Pie designer paper with the small circles this time and die cut that lovely decorative circle (Spotlight on Nature) for our focal point. Now here's the fun Tip and Trick...we stamped the leaves outline image (also Spotlight on Nature) in Memento ink directly on the designer paper AND, then we colored the image with our Blends..because of the design we chose---a bit subtle & not overpowering... the image and the coloring do not show through. Isn't that an awesome focal point?

We added an under circle with a different decorative edge and lets the first circle show through the edging quite nicely.

The Textured Dots keep with the autumn theme as does the black twine bow on the leaf stem.

The 'thanks' was stamped on a coordinating Pumpkin label and popped up with dimensionals.

Stop by next Tuesday for our newest creation!

Tips & Tricks of Using Designer Paper in Card-making

Today we're discovering more Tips & Tricks of Using Desinger Paper in Card-making. Today's designer paper is the 2024-2026 In Color DSP....

Here's today's creations....

Wheat

& a bit closer look at the focal point...

Wheat cu

We selected the Peach Pie cardstock as our base and then nabbed the striped design of the same color from the In Color DSP pack.  The base was covered with a Peach layer embossed with the Painted Texture folder--it's a nice texture but doesn't overpower the focal point--it stays in the background.

We did an underlayer for the DSP in Pumpkin Pie (sounds like a bakery here, right? all these pies) which adds a bit of contrast and makes that designer paper pop.

Now we used the wheat and greeting from the Autumn Expressions stamp set (new one in the Holiday mini that is available tomorrow!). We chose the wheat for it's solid image...didn't need any coloring and coordiates well with the greeting.

We topped the wheat with the black twine bow that sets it off nicely. The Textured Dots embellishments were just the best final touch.

I'll give you step by step directions for today's project below followed by the supply list.

Stop by Thursday and see what we do with the DSP for another creation!

Another Fun Trick Using Designer Series Paper to Create Cards

Today we're using Another Fun Trick Using Designer Series Papaer to Create Cards. Tuesday we created a cute simple birthday card using DSP--if you missed it check it out here Click here to see Tuesday's card.

Here's today's creation...

Copper

 

and a bit closer peek...

Copper cu

Today we're  using the same card layout as we did on Tuesday. However, today our focal point is die cut from the designer paper instead of using the designer paper as the background for the focal point. By doing this we've created a very interesting leaf stem with absolutely no effort!

This card base is Copper Clay cardstock topped with a very thin border of white to coordinate with the white in the designer paper.

We've topped that off with a layer of Copper Clay and this layer is put through the Dotted Circle embossing folder...such a cute and fun embossing.

Our greeting is from the Simply Said set and we've stamped that on a round label die cut from the Changing Leaves Dies.

The embellishment consists of a sweet bow from the Iridescent Striped Ribbon and large Blooming Pearls (gold).

I'll give you step by step directions for today's project below followed by the supply list.

Stop by Thursday and see what we do with the DSP for another creation!
