Today I wanted to highlight one of my favourite papers in the Petals and Paisleys Specialty DSP pack – indeed one of the papers which make this pack a Specialty one. It’s the night of navy with copper foil embossing and it’s beautiful. It’s also on sale right now at $5.20 instead of $13.

The big flower was towards the edge of the remaining piece of the DSP and I decided to use that as my focal point. After I’d trimmed it down, it was an odd size – too big to easily add a sentiment, too small to really carry the card on its own. So I added a copper border so that it almost looks as if the design is carved into the night of navy cardstock to allow the copper to show through. I then added another night of navy layer with more copper foil. If I’d designed this up front, I could’ve cut the smaller rectangle from the larger which would have been more economical. But I think this DSP deserves the extravagance!

My adopted upline challenged her team to make 10 cards with DSP and actually send them. In looking back at my recent cards, there has been an unusual amount of DSP – now all I need to do is SEND them!

Maybe you could help me out – if you would like a new 2017-2018 catalog, contact me and I’ll send you one (when they arrive) along with a card showcasing DSP!

I hope you enjoyed today’s project.
