Texture Chic Specialty DSP

Leave a reply

The week I’m focusing on the Texture Chic Specialty DSP with a bit of help from the new set Charming Sentiments. This is a specialty DSP which means  that there is gold foil on one side of all the sheets. But here I’m using one of the sheets without gold foil.

This is a 2 inch wide strip of the Texture Chic specialty DSP matted onto a strip of Mango Melody. The matted DSP was attached to a white card base.

Next the sentiment was stamped in Mango Melody and die cut with the Layering Circles dies. A mat of Mango Melody was cut using the same die set and attached to the sentiment circle. This was then added to the card with dimensionals.

Finally some basic rhinestones were colored using the dark Mango Melody blend and added to the card.

I made this card plus 2 more using this DSP at my Facebook Live this morning at 11am eastern. If you share my live, I’ll add you to my raffle. I also upload the video to YouTube in case you prefer that medium.

This card is also using a Pool Party card base which is not a color that I use often. I think I should use it more after the last couple of cards that I’ve made.

This is a layout that I’ve used before, although as a horizontal card which means you need a vertical greeting. Alternatively I suppose you could have a die cut over the DSP but I’m trying not to hide any of it!

The DSP is layered onto gold foil that is 1/4 inch longer than the DSP for a wider than usual border. Finally the greeting from Charming Sentiments was stamped in Pool Party.

I’ll be showing this card plus 2 more using this DSP at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am eastern. If you share my live, I’ll add you to my raffle. I also upload the video to YouTube in case you prefer that medium.

The week I’m focusing on the Texture Chic Specialty DSP with a bit of help from the new set Charming Sentiments. This is a specialty DSP which obviously means that it’s special. Here it means gold foil on one side of all the sheets.

It was difficult to decide which pattern to start with but I finally decided on this one. It’s so pretty I wanted to really show it off. So here is a rectangle of the DSP matted in gold foil.

Next the sentiment from Charming Sentiments was heat embossed in gold on to a Pool Party card base. Finally the matted DSP was added to the card. Defintely a clean and simple card.

I’ll be showing this card plus 2 more using this DSP at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am eastern. If you share my live, I’ll add you to my raffle. I also upload the video to YouTube in case you prefer that medium.

Celebrating In Color Alternative

Leave a reply

I just noticed that I neglected to publish my third alternative for the Celebrating in Color paper pumpkin kit. So here it is.Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - My Elegant Cards - May 22 Paper Pumpkin - Celebrating In Color Alternative

I lined up the stamp by hand since the stamparatus would have put them too far apart. I just concentrated on the left hand upright on the H to help with lining them up and of course it’s a photopolymer stamp.

I used Highland Heather, Gorgeous Grape, Orchid Oasis, Starry Sky and Night of Navy. Then I used blends to colour in a single letter in each color. Here is when I discovered that Gorgeous Grape doesn’t exist in blends so I used the dark Highland Heather as a substitute. After each letter was coloured I added Wink of Stella to give some sparkle.

I showed all 8 cards that I made with this kit at my Facebook Live at 11am Eastern on the 5th.  Share my live and get added to the raffle.

Celebrating In Color Alternative

Leave a reply

This week I’m showcasing this month’s Paper Pumpkin – Celebrating in Color.  Here’s my second alternative card.

This is so simple that there’s barely anything to say! The gold foil decorated card base is in the kit and was designed for the Sweet Sorbet card but I’ve already made one of those.

So all I did was add the sentiment “Just for” on top of the you in tuxedo black.

I’ll show all cards that I’ve made with this kit at my Facebook Live at 11am Eastern tomorrow.  Share my live and get added to the raffle.
