#stampinup #faithfulinkspirations Do you hoard designer series paper? I certainly do! I love it so much that I hoard it and then never get around to using it. That’s such a shame. Stampin’ Up’s DSP is so beautiful–it just calls out to be used.
One of my favorite DSPs in the 2015-2016 Annual Catalog is the Serene Scenery DSP pack. I’ve only used a few sheets from it–and it’s a whole stack of paper!! My favorite sheet in the stack is the blue woodgrain piece. When I first saw it, I had to touch it because it looked so real. I also love the “Scenic Sayings” stamp set that coordinates with these papers–it’s meant to stamp right on the paper…or not. You can do whatever you please. Here’s the design that pleased me today. It’s a CASE of a card made by Stampin’ Up Artisan Shannon Lane. It’s so quick and easy to make!
I started by cutting two sheets of the Serene Scenery DSP to 4″ by 5-1/14″. I stacked them on top of each other and cut a diagonal piece off the bottom. I adhered these to a Whisper White Thick Card Stock card base, cut lengthwise. I added a Lace Doily to the card and then a length of Burlap Ribbon.
Next, I stamped the hexagon stamp from “Scenic Sayings” in Old Olive onto a Whisper White scrap and cut it out with my Paper Snips. I adhered this to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
For a finishing touch, I added three gold sequins from the Metallics Sequin Assortment, adhering them to the card with the Fine-Tip Glue Pen.
I really need to get over my hoarding habit, so I’m making myself a promise to use more of this DSP before it retires. It’s so pretty and it’s great to use as the focus of the design.
