Stampin' Up! Countryside Inn DSP Thanks card!

I am sooo in love with this dsp!  The Countryside Inn dsp has got to be my favourite dsp ever with it's beautiful hues of blues and choice of designs.  It just makes it so easy to create with but difficult to choice another.  If you would like to watch as I put the card together, follow me here: https://www.facebook.com/eastcoaststampingwithMaryLouise

For this card, I wanted to showcase my newest purchase...the Alphabest stamp set to go with the punch I bought last year.  After doing some looking around Pinterest, I was able to put adhesive to paper and create!  I adhered the layer of dsp to the Misty Moonlight cardstock and then to the Night of Navy cardbase.  I stamped onto scraps of Basic White using Misty Moonlight and the cute background stamp six times.  Then I stamped the letters for "thanks" using Night of Navy and finally punched them out.  They are adhered to the tag die cut from the Countryside Inn dsp which has been popped up using Stampin Dimensions.  I used a length of Black Baker's Twine to thread through the hole at the end of the die cut and then ravelled the ends to make it look a bit messy.  A few Rhonestone Basic Jewels adds the perfect touch to the card.  For the inside, I stamped a sentiment from Timeless Arrangements using Night of Navy onto a piece of Basic White cardstock and added a strip of dsp to the edge for interest.  I really do like a finished insert!

Stampin' Up! Splendid Autumn Sympathy Card

Image
Today's card was inspired by a sketch seen on facebook from an American Demonstrator.  I was intrigued by the cool way to use some of our beautiful designer series paper and the best part is, you don't need a huge piece! I am attending a Stampin' Up! event this weekend and we were asked to bring a few projects to share and this is one of my projects. Fall isn't officially here yet, but once school starts up and the leaves start to fall off the trees, it's pretty close.  The Splendid Autumn designer series paper is gorgeous, the beautiful rich colours are simply stunning.   The cardbase and matte layer are Wild Wheat and the cardstock that the dsp is mounted on is Crushed Curry.  Simply cut the pieces and adhere together and then adhere to the card front.  I stamped using Memento onto a strip of Basic White cardstock which was then mounted on to another piece of Crushed Curry.  This was then popped up using Stampin' Dimensionals after the length of 2023...

Stampin' Up! Nests of Winter Christmas Card

Image
Good day folks!  I am here with another card created for my recent Stampin' Up! gathering this past weekend.  We had a day long activity where we focused on building up our Stampin' Up! business, watched several Atlantic Demos create some beautiful projects and then participated in a show box swap.  This was my shoe box swap offering. I have used this fancy fold layout several times and thought it was the perfect opportunity to showcase some of the beautiful Nests of Winter dsp in the latest mini catalogue! My cardbase is Grey Granite which was cut and scored, the die cut square behind the image and the strip to hold the card together are all Gray Granite too.  The dsp is from Nests of Winter and they are adhered to the front and the inside of the cardbase.  There is a small piece of Basic White for the insert and fits beside the piece of dsp.  The strip of Gray Granite,  is scored is secured next.  Starting at the far left edge of the card front,...
