Another Tip & Trick for Using Designer Paper for Card-making
September 05, 2024
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...
And a closer peak...
Using 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.
