Forever Greenery DSP

Leave a reply

This week I’m focusing a little differently – the designer series paper from the annual catalog will be retiring at the beginning of May. I’m still using my Forever Greenery DSP, but a different pattern.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - Forever Greenery DSP - Stitched Rectangle Dies

This card is basically the same as yesterday’s, but in the horizontal orientation and with an added mat. The Forever Greenery DSP is 2 by 5 1/2 inches with the Soft Sea Foam mat 2 1/8 by 5 1/2 inches. If you prefer a deeper mat, maybe try 2 1/4 by 5 1/2 inches. This was then added to a Just Jade card base. The sentiment comes from the Peaceful Moments set and is stamped in Just Jade on Soft Sea Foam. After die cutting it with the Stitched Rectangle dies it was popped up with dimensionals. The final touch was a few of my favourite gems, the Elegant Faceted gems. 

I opened my preorder box this morning and I saw the beautiful new incolor gems, it looks like the Faceted Elegant gems have some competition!

You can get 12 cards like this out of one 12 by 12 sheet of paper which makes 144 out of the full DSP pack!

Forever Greenery DSP

Leave a reply

This week I’m focusing on using up some of the designer series paper from the annual catalog which will be retiring at the beginning of May. It’s a good thing to use it before we get the new papers. Who doesn’t need a stack of Thank you or Birthday cards? So I thought I’d grab some of my Forever Greenery DSP and spend the rest of this week showing some simple layouts to use some of it up.

This one is a 2 by 5 1/2 inch piece of the Forever Greenery DSP added to a  Pretty Peacock card base. Then the  sentiment stamped in Pretty Peacock was cut out using the Stitched Shapes framelits dies. The sentiment is from Peaceful Moments. I added some of my favourite Elegant Faceted gems.

Boho Indigo Product Medley

Leave a reply

I’m continuing to show you 2 cards using the Boho Indigo Product Medley (153132) each day this week.  Today I’ve made a card using it to celebrate last year’s incolors; I reckon they’re feeling neglected at the moment! I’ve also made a simple birthday card.

The first card obviously is using the same vase stamp in Magenta Madness, Misty Moonlight, Just Jade, Cinnamon Cider and BumbleBee which were then die cut. The sentiment was stamped directly onto a thick Whisper White card base and then the vases were added, some directly to the card and some popped up. The embellishments from the Medley provided the finishing touch.

The second card again shows the fabulous DSP (and I haven’t even used all the patterns yet!) matted in Misty Moonlight. I added a piece of knotted Misty Moonlight ribbon before placing it onto a Night of Navy card base.  The sentiment was stamped in Misty Moonlight and cut out with the Stitched Shapes Framelits dies and added to the card with dimensionals.

Come back tomorrow for some more samples…

Boho Indigo Product Medley

Leave a reply

I’m continuing to showcase the Boho Indigo Product Medley (153132) and there is SO much to showcase that I’m blogging every day this week. At $70 you may feel it’s expensive, but you get a huge amount of product – and the refill is almost $10 off in the sale. I am having so much fun creating with this Medley.

The first card’s vase was stamped in Garden Green and cut out with the dies in the Medley. This was popped up with dimensionals over three of the stickers this time and placed on a Garden Green card base. The sentiment also comes from the Medley stamped in Garden Green. This time I added a bow using one of the ribbons that comes with the kit.

Yesterday’s card used a 2 inch piece of DSP leaving me with 4 inches. Cut it in half or use all of it? I decided to let the DSP really shine and just matted it in Misty Moonlight and put it on a Night of Navy card base. The sentiment, also from the Boho Indigo Product Medley, was stamped in Misty Moonlight and die cut using the Stitched So Sweetly Dies.

Come back tomorrow for some more samples…

A Little Lace

Leave a reply

This week I’m focusing on a retiring set, A Little Lace. I’ve just checked – it’s still available but it’s as supplies last so don’t wait.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - A Little Lace - Stitched Shapes Framelita dies

This is a very simple and fun card to make. It’s just 3 little stamps and 3 colours which are stamped randomly up the side of a Very Vanilla layer. I used  Rococo Rose, Pear Pizzazz and Highland Heather. Next I used a Rococo Rose blend and colored in the flowers before attaching the layer to a Rococo Rose mat and then a Very Vanilla card base. The sentiment is from the A Little Lace set and stamped in more Rococo Rose and then cut out using the Stitched Shapes Framelits dies. The sentiment is popped up with dimensionals and then a few Elegant Faceted gems in the flower centres. 

Come and join me on Facebook today at 11am EDT as I show how to make this week’s cards. https://www.facebook.com/MyElegantCards/
