Sun Prints DSP

It may be late but it is being posted on the right day so we’re getting back to normal! I needed a two nap this afternoon. This is the Nature’s Prints stamp set and the Sun Prints DSP.

I expect that you’re thinking that I made a mistake when I listed the Sun Prints DSP, but it really is there. The blue background is actually the other side of yesterday’s DSP and if you look hard, is not a consistent color. It took me a minute trying to figure out how to prep this card – was the cardbase Night of Navy or Starry Sky? Eventually I figured it out!

The Sun Prints DSP was cut to 5 1/8 by 3 7/8 inches and added to a white card base. The 2 3/4 by 4 inches piece of white was stamped in Starry Sky using the Nature’s Prints set. This was matted with silver foil and added to the card base.  Some basic rhinestones were added as a final touch.

I made this card, along with 2 others using this set at my Facebook Live earlier today. Check out the replay or catch it on YouTube. When you place a $25 order with me, I’ll send you the cut cardstock for free. Also if you share my live, I’ll put you in the raffle for a free embellishment plus a card.

Sun Prints DSP

It seems to be Excuse Week! I went to the opticians before blogging yesterday and my eyes ended up so dilated that everything was blurry for quite a while. I’m not planning anything for today so we should be back to normal operations! I’m using the gorgeous Sun Prints DSP again.

The Sun Prints DSP was cut to 3 1/2 by 4 inches and matted in white. I tried to add a sentiment but it was totally unnecessary and detracted from the patterned paper so it’s a plain card. Before I made cards, when I went shopping for them, I would always look for cards without sentiments. Funny how things change isn’t it? 

The matted paper was added to a Night of Navy card base and then some Elegant Faceted gems were added. 

I will be making this card, along with 2 others using this set at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am eastern. When you place a $25 order with me, I’ll send you the cut cardstock for free. Also if you share my live, I’ll put you in the raffle for a free embellishment plus a card.

Beauty of Friendship

This week I’m using the Beauty of Friendship set and I can see that it’s going to be really fun.

The tree was stamped in Sahara Sand on a piece of watercolor paper. The foliage was stamped in Mossy Meadow and spritzed lightly with water before stamping.

It was then matted with Sahara Sand and glued to a Mossy Meadow card base. I contemplated a sentiment strip and also embellishments but it just seemed too much, so I left it clean and simple.

I’ll be making this card, along with 2 others using this set at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am eastern. If you place a $25 order with me, I’ll send you the cut cardstock for free. Also if you share my live, I’ll put you in the raffle for a free embellishment plus a card.

Splendid Day Specialty DSP

This week I’m using the Splendid Day Specialty DSP. As you can see it contains some beautiful foils which are almost impossible to photograph but I did my best. In fact I used my cellphone. Apologies for being so late with this post, I was having some trouble with wordpress on the admin side. Each request for a new anything took four minutes (I timed it!). After some upgrading of the site it appears to be back to normal – fingers crossed.

The piece of DSP was cut to 4 by 5 1/4 inches and put onto a Starry Sky base. The images on the foil are slightly raised which is rather fun.

I then added a few of the 2022-2024 in color matte decorative dots. This was much faster to make than it was to get it onto the blog!

I’ll be making this card, along with 2 others using this set at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am eastern. If you place a $25 order with me, I’ll send you the cut cardstock for free. Also if you share my live, I’ll put you in the raffle.

Sun Prints DSP

This week I’m using the Sun Prints collection, starting with the Sun Prints DSP.

As you can see, this is a very simple card. I cut out an interesting piece of the DSP and matted it in white. This was then added to a Night of Navy card base. And, in my opinion, it doesn’t need anything else.

I’ll be making this card and two others using the Sun Prints collection on Sunday at my Facebook Live at 11am eastern. Please join me and if you share the live, I’ll add you to my weekly raffle. I also upload it to YouTube if you prefer that medium.
