How to Let the Magic of Your'e A Peach Designer Paper Design Your Next Card

Today we're again exploring How to Let the Magic of You're a Peach Designer Paper Design Your Next Card! Tuesday we worked the magic of Sweet Symmetry DSP--if you missed it check it out here https://www.sandilovesstamping.com/2021/07/how-to-let-the-magic-of-in-symmetry-designer-paper-design-your-next-card.html

Today's DSP is You're a Peach

155686

I selected near solid design (has dots), one medium print, and one coordinating small print---they all share Flirty Falmingo with a sprinkling of Old Olive.  This points to a card base of Flirty (with layer of white) and Old Olive with Flirty Flamingo inks for the stamping. See how easy card design is when you start with dsp? 

Here's today's creation:

Sweet as a Peach

This design can be utilized for any number of designer papers that have primarily small designs---as with our Tuesday design the larger patterns won't work as well with this because of the small rectangles being used. 

Plus this designer paper is also on sale until 8-2-21--order yours while it's on sale!

12 Weeks of Christmas Week 7 (Part 2) Last Creation with Humble Home

Today we're creating a handmade gift tag in the 12 Weeks of Chrismas Week 7 (Part 2) Last Creation with Humble Home. Tuesday we embedded the Home in the forest--if you missed it check it out here Tuesday's card.

This is such a sweet bundle that ideas kept popping in my vision...so we're using it one last time today.

This is the bundle

Screenshot 2024-11-06 111727

and here's today's gift tag...

Tag

This is a bookstyle tag--I've always love this style that opens like a book to write your message inside. For this tag all the complexity is in the image itself---for this reason we can keep the actual tag quite simple--still looks like a million dollars but is a quick and easy creation.

You can simply stamp a gazillion on white cardstock--color them while watching your favorite TV show (or in my case listening to a reocorded book--that way I don't miss any of the action in the picture LOL).   Then cut your cardstock, fold in half, punch a  hole and thread through your twine or ribbon.

We did add the 'Merry Christmas'  stamped in red on a small piece of white cardstock since we overlayed the tag front with the Dashing Design embossed layer for some added interest.

And we topped it all off with 3 of those darling little peppermint dots that just must be used with a gingerbread house!

Stop back by next week to see a new creation!

This is our card for today...

Reindeer frame cards

Today we embedded our cute little gingerbread house in an woodsy view created with the frame die from Reindeer Fun bundle.  Can't you just feel the warmth inside the house as we peek through the evergreen boughs of the surrounding forest!

We used the Pool Party underlay to provide the "label" area to stamp the greeting (also from the Reindeer Fun stamp set) making it quick and easy -- no extra cutting.

The whole thing is layered on red cardstock embossed with Dashing Designs embossing folder--giving us some needed texture to the card front but not overpowering the focal point.

Simply stamping the gingerbread house and coloring with the Blends--we punch out the house and insert it into the woods.

InsideIt's one of those quick & simple deisgns that is easily converted into "just a card" by simply cutting a card base (8 1/2 X 5 1/5, score long side at 4 1/4) instead of the longer version with one more score/fold to hold the gift card...it's so nice to have a design like this on hand that is convertible & easy to do.

Here's today's card

Card front& a closer look....

Card cu

Isn't that designer paper (Reindeer Days) absolutely a perfect background for this little gingerbread house--with the trees in the background and those lovely deer roaming about on the snowy ground.

The base is Pool Party with a top layer using Dashing Designs embossing folder.

Our humble home is stamped on white cardstock and colored with Blends--that Pecan Pie is just the right shade for gingerbread. The Daffodil "lights" up the inside of the home making it look all warm and cozy inside. We popped up the house on dimensionals to give it that 3D look.

The narrow border of Shaded Spruce lining the top and bottom of the designer paper just set off the images quite nicely.

The Merry Christmas is stamped on the snow in Real Red ink and embellished with 3 red rhinestones that are colored with the Dark Cherry Cobbler Blend.

Stop back by Thursday to see the second part of Week 6 using Humble Home.

& the Season of Elegance Specialty Paper..Screenshot 2024-10-30 114246

Here's today's gift card holder...

Peacock& the inside..

Open& the greeting...

InsideThis holder (when folded) measures 4 X 5 1/2...which fits nicely in the medium sized envelopes. However, the best gift card for this one is the card itself (without the cardboard holder on which some are sold).

The base is Pool Party cardstock which is a wonderful contrast to the Pretty Peacock & gold of the Season of Elegance paper used for this one.

The base snowflake is Pool Party (again for great contrast) & the solid image in Peacock. The detailed snowflake is die cut from gold foil to coordinate with the gold in the designer paper.

The greetings in the One of a Kind stamp set are perfect for gift card holders as we used in this one "A little something just for you." Again, this verse is not just a holiday verse but also can be used throughout the year for any gift-giving occasion.

We jazzed up the inside a bit using the 3 sizes of snowflake stamps and the swirl to add a hint of movement.

Stop back by next Tuesday to see what we're creating in Week 6.

& this is the Season of Elegance Specialty Paper..Screenshot 2024-10-30 114246


This paper is absolutely exquisite... it's not primarily holiday paper so can be used throughout the year! 

Today's gift card holder....

Red the inside...

Inside red

The base of today's gift card holder is designed to hold the gift cards embedded on a cardboard base. The left side (as it is open) has the pocket in which the gift card can be slipped

This is a regular sized card (4 1/4 X 5 1/2) & fits nin the regular medium envelopes for giving--either in person or by sending through the mail.  (P.S. The additional weight of the gift card may cause an increase in postage-- check before mailing).

The snowflake medallion on the card front is from the One of  a Kind die set---the background (solid red cardstock) is a wonderful contrast for the gold glimmer snowflake die cut. The Glimmer paper (2024-26 In Color Glimmer Paper)...it's the Peach Pie sheet which is a perfect gold for our Christmas season. 

We layered that combo on a gold foil medallion to give it a shining boost on the red/gold foil card front!

Stop back by Thursday to see the second part of Week 5 creating another gift card holder.

Creating Another Halloween or Fall Card Using the Scenic Pumpkin Patch Stamps

Today we're Creating Another Halloween or Fall Card Using the Scenic Pumpkin Patch Stamps. Tuesday we created a cutie with this stamp set. If you missed it check it out here Click here to see Tuesday's card.

We're continuing to use the same stamp set...

Thumbnail_IMG_8459Here's today's creation...

Vanilla a bit closer peek...

Vanilla cu

The designer paper layered on the Vanilla cardbase is from the Flowering Zinnias DSP--this is one  of my favorite pieces in that set of papers & it works just beautifully with the pumpkin images.

The designer paper has Lemon Lolly stars so we selected this color for our stitched circle on which to place our focal point. 

The pumpkins are stamped in Pumpki pie on this Lemon Lolly cardstock & the lemon shows through the pumpkins giving the highlights a very pretty "shine." As we did on Tuesday we were able to add the stems & leaves in Old Olive with a separate stampe.

We used the 'friend' from the Everyday Greetings set & stamped with Stazon Saddle Brown on Very vanilla cardstock.  We added mini dimensionals to pop it up giving it some definition.

Adding the Dark Pumpkin Pie Blend to the Basic Rhineston Jewels is such fun that we used this technique again for today's card. Color & sparkle at one time!

Stop back next week to see what we're up to!

Simple & Sweet Halloween or Just Fall Cards Using Scenic Pumpkin Patch Stamps

This week we're exploring Simple & Sweet Halloween or Just Fall Cards Using Scenic Pumpkin Patch Stamps. Sometimes we need Halloween greetings and sometime we don't--so I like to build a card that can be used for both purposes.

This is the stamp set we're using this week....

Thumbnail_IMG_8459

Here's the card we created today...

Pumpkin

Here's a bit closer look...

Pumpkin cu

One of the wonderfu features of this stamp set is that the stems/leaves and the pumpkins are two separate stamps so that we can use appropriate colors instead of having orange stems/leaves or green pumpkins. Since the stamps are photopolymer--they are easily used to add the green stems to the top of the pumpkins.

We've layered the Peach Pie designer paper (2024-2026 In Color DSP) on the Pumpkin Pie cardstock base leaving a strip down the middle of the card to insert a strip of Very Vanilla cardstock on which we do our stamping.

The greeting is from a set of verses, Everyday Greetings, an Online Exclusive product. I love this script with our pumpkin images.

We've colored the Basic Rhinestone Jewels with Dark Pumpkin Pie Blend to give us that rich embellishment and tons of sparkle.
