Stampin' Up! Rock and Roll Birthday Card


Hey everyone!  Today's sketch is super cool and I really love the card I made using it.  This was so easy to put together since I used three different dsp designs.  All I stamped was the sentiments.  So if you were looking for a great design to mass produce, this is it!
The first layer of dsp goes directly onto the cardbase, then I cut the second piece of dsp (I cut it on a diagonal, now there's no right or wrong to the size of this piece so do what works for you) and it is adhered to the first.  See, simple!  The third piece of dsp is adhered to the Basic Black panel with Stampin' Seal, then popped up with Stampin' Dimensionals and placed slightly askew on the cardfront.  Almost done!  Next I stamped the sentiment from Sweet Songbirds onto a scrap of Basic White using Memento ink.  That is then trimmed down to the size I want and popped up with Stampin Dimensionals.  
For the inside, I stamped a sentiment and added a few music notes from the same stamp set, added a scrap of dsp to the bottom and adhered all to the cardbase.  I didn't want to add too many  embellishments and get lost in the black and white colour scheme I had going on so it's just a few of the iridescent rhinestone basic pearls for the win.  And bam!  All done.  I don't think it took 15 minutes once I had the papers cut.  For an alternate idea, embossed cardstock could be substituted for the dsp.  I can't wait to try this sketch again using alternate designs and colours.
Big thanks to Andrea for the fun sketch idea and the facebook live entertainment.

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,...
