CREATE PRETTY CARDS USING TWO PATTERNED PAPER DESIGNS WITH RIBBON AND A GREETING

 Hi Stampers!

Happy 2023 to everyone! I hope this year is full of lots of Stamp Happy moments for each and everyone of you! I thought we would start off the stamping year with a simple card design that features two pattens of DSP, some pretty ribbon, enamel dots, and a greeting. Let’s look at the cards:

To create these cards I used new products from the Stampin’ Up!®️ January - April 2023 Mini Catalog.

For the greetings I used the Framed Florets stamp set. This stamp set was an early release set from this mini catalog. The ribbon is the Night of Navy Bordered Ribbon, and the enamel dots are from the Enamel Dots Essentials. The co-stars of the show are the two collections of Designer Series Paper (DSP): Country Gingham 6” x 6” DSP and the Regency Park 6” x 6” DSP. Both collections have a casual country feel and the collections feature some of the same colors allowing the two collections to pair well with one another. 

The Country Gingham DSP contains 48 sheets - 8 each of 6 double sided designs in Balmy Blue, Mint Macaron, Petal Pink, and Sweet Sorbet. There are several gingham patterns to choose from. The Regency Park DSP has 48 sheets - 4 each of 12 double sided designs in Balmy Blue, Mango Melody, Night of Navy, Petal Pink, Shaded Spruce, and Sweet Sorbet. each of the designs has the look of denim.

Watch the video to see each pattern included in the DSP collections and to see how I assembled the cards

* The DSPfor all cards is cut as follows:

   - Select the two patterns of DSP, put one on top of the other and put in your paper trimmer. Cut both pieces at the same time at 4” x 5 1/4”

   - Next cut the stacked papers at 2 1/4”, this makes two pieces of DSP that measure 4” x 2 1/4” and two pieces that measure 4” x 3” each. There are enough pieces of DSP to create two cards. Each card will require one piece of 4” x 2 1/4” and a piece that is 4” x 3”
