Flowers For A New Season

September 1, 2020 Leave a Comment

I have discovered the most gorgeous Designer Series Paper (DSP) and I can’t stop playing with it. The Flowers For Every Season DSP is in the Stampin’ Up! 2020/2021 Annual Catalogue so it’s not exactly new, but I think I kept shipping past it because it’s 6″ x 6″. Well since I got my hands on it I’ve been determined to deal with those demons. So today I bring you not one but two projects, using just one 6×6 sheet between them.

FLOWERS FOR EVERY SEASON

From the Flowers For every Season DSP pack I took one sheet of this bright daisy design.

First I cut a 2-1/4″ x 6″ strip. Next, using Multipurpose Liquid Glue (Tombow) I fixed the piece to the flap of a Whisper White Medium Envelope. Then I trimmed the DSP with my Paper Snips using the edge of the flap as a guide.

For my card base I decided to use Thick Whisper White Card. After using my Paper Trimmer to cut and scored the card I folded it along the scored line and sharpened the crease with a Bone Folder.

Going back to the rest of the DSP sheet I cut a 3/4″ x 6″ strip, then I rimmed the strip down to 5-1/4″ long. Using liquid glue I fixed the strip along the bottom edge of a 4″ x 5-1/4″ piece of Whisper White Card. Then I glued a 1/8″ strip of Poppy Parade card up against the edge of the DSP. With that done I fixed the assembled layer inside the card base.

I now had a 3″ x 6″ piece of DSP left and I cut it into two at 4-1/4″. I set aside the 1-3/4″ x 3″ piece for later and glued the larger piece to a 3-1/8″ x 4-3/8″ layer of Poppy Parade Card. Then using Stampin’ Dimensionals I fixed the assembled layers onto the front of my card base.

HERE’S A CARD

For my sentiment I chose “Congratulations” from the Here’s A Card Stamp Set.

Using Just Jade ink I stamped the sentiment onto a 3/4″ x 4-1/4″ strip of Whisper White Card. Then I glued it onto a 7/8″ x 4-1/4″ strip of Poppy Parade Card before adding it to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

While my card and envelope were finished I still had a couple of pieces of the Flowers For Every Season DSP left over. So I decided I would make a gift tag to match the card.

I started with another 3/4″ strip of Whisper White Card onto which I stamped the Congratulations sentiment. Then I glued it to a 7/8″ strip of Poppy Parade Card and set it aside.

Next I took the 1-3/4″ x 3″ piece of DSP and glued that to a 1-7/8″ x 3-1/8″ layer of Poppy Parade Card. With that done I laid the sentiment diagonally across the layered DSP and with a pencil marked where it extended past the edges of the layers. Then I trimmed the sentiment along the pencil lines.

For my tag base I cut a 2″ x 3-3/4″ strip of Thick Whisper White Card. Then at one end I punched an oval hole using the Detailed Trio Punch. After that I threaded some 1/8″ Poppy Parade ribbon from the All The Trimmings Ribbon Combo Pack through the hole and tied it in a simple knot.

Finally I used Stampin’ Dimensionals to fix the sentiment to the DSP layer before attaching it to the tag base.

So from one 6″ x 6″ piece of DSP I made a card, decorated the inside and the envelope, and made a coordinating gift tag. All I was left with was a 3/4″ x 3/4″ scrap which I may or may not use on something else…
