Do you have DSP paper scraps from projects?
If you made the above project with me back in September 2021, then you have the exact paper scraps for today’s project!
TIP: Save your Designer Series Paper scraps from each set in separate envelopes. Because each set of DSP coordinates with itself, you can be assured that your project will be perfectly coordinated with the right colors and designs instead of having to scrounge through scraps from all different sets.
How to Design Your Card
You can go crazy with a free form card. The strips can be all different widths and lengths. They can be arranged diagonally, vertically or horizontally and it will look fantastic. If you want to recreate the exact card in today’s project, follow the above layout and cutting guide.
After you have your pieces cut and know your layout, glue them down on the 5 1/4″ X 4″ Basic White cardstock. Turn your cardstock over and trim off any overhanging pieces.
Creating the Focal Point of Your Card
Stamp two flowers on Basic White cardstock and then arrange your dies on top of them so that the right amount of your flower is showing. If you don’t have the dies, you can just cut rectangles measuring 2” x 3” and 2 ¾ x 1 ½”.
Adhere the large rectangle to the card, but pop up the small rectangle with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Attach the 7/8″ x 4″ DSP scrap to the final piece of Basic White cardstock to decorate the interior of your card.
