Goodbye Designer Series Paper

We have so many great Designer Series Papers (DSP) and I wanted to feature a few projects using some of these papers that will be going away. While many of the stamp sets that I am featuring will be carrying over unfortunately the DSP will not be. Sometimes they carry over, but with a major color change like we are having we will be getting all new DSP.

I had a lot of fun with these cards. My husband and I actually met when I asked him for a ride on his motorcycle almost 30 years ago. His favorite colors are purple and green so when I finally had a chance to play with this set I had him help me with the coloring. You’ll notice that the motorcycles vary a bit from each other as I played with different combinations. I’m featuring the Ready to Ride DSP which is part of the Suite Collection along with the Silver Foil that has been embossed.

Here’s one more card using this suite. I will list the additional products used along with the colors. One of the things I love about his card is how well the large watercolor world stamp set works so well with the motorcycle.

  • 160708 – Watercolor World Stamp Set (C) (M)
  • Colors – Pumpkin Pie (C), Basic Grey (C), Sahara Sand (R), Basic Black (C)

I am in love with this quick and easy layout. I’ve actually made multiple cards using this layout. I was going off a similar layout and cut the paper the wrong size however once I did I decided I liked this size even better. This card works perfect with our DSP. Simply cut your DSP into 4 x 8. You can get four cards out of one piece of DSP and still have a 4×4 square left for other projects. To finish you will score it at 2″ and 4″. Attached the 4×4 section to a 4 1/4″ by 4 1/4″ background and decorate how you want. The main image is designed to be centered and only attach to half the card when folded back like a Z-Fold card. This hides the image below which is in a similar shape.

Greatest Journey

Have you ever fallen in love more with the dies than with the stamp set?

That is how I felt when I first saw this suite. It was the dies that drew me to them. Maybe because my family is very outdoors and we love to camp, hike and bike and I thought these would be perfect to make cards for them and scrapbook pages. When I started to play with this stamp set I really wanted to use the blending brushes in a unique and different way. I chose to use the dies to cut out a template that I held to create a layered effect on the card. Rather than having a blended look by using the template I was able to create depth to the background without adding more layers. I finished it off by layering cardstock that I embossed the saying on with white embossing powder and the used one of the die cut images as a focal point.

I originally created this card as a swap with my Stampin’ Up! team and I’m happy to report that I was one of the winners of the swap with this card. Here is a close up picture where you can see the detail better.

After creating the card for the swap I decided I wanted to see what I could come up with using some of the other images and sayings in the set. Here’s what I came up with. What do you think? I still like the first one the best, but I like these as well. I know I’ve said this before, but I’m sad this one didn’t carry over from the mini catalog as I think it’s a great set and I love the dies.

Delightful Daisy Suite

I wanted to share one of my favorite new suites the Delightful Daisy Suite.  I love this new suite and the punch.  I’m looking forward to making my own vase of daisies.  You can find the suite on pages 126-127 of the annual catalog.

Delightful Daisy

 

I saw this design on Pinterest and thought it would be perfect for the Delightful Daisy Suite.  It’s a perfect way to show case all the fun designer series paper.  Colors used – Daffodil Delight, Blushing Bride, Old Olive & Whisper White.

I also saw this idea on Pinterest different words but I loved the idea of stamping in on the letters.  I created this around Mother’s day but I fell like there are many times that we can let our mothers know how grateful we are for them.  Colors used – Daffodil Delight, Fresh Fig & Whisper White.

Eastern Palace Suite

We were able to pre-order some products from the catalog so I’ve had some time to play with them.  I hope you enjoy these samples.  They also feature some of the new in-colors.

Here’s some samples that I’ve created with my pre-order and I’m having a difficult time trying to decided what I want to order first now that I can order anything from the new catalog.  I would love to hear what your favorite new items are from the catalog.  All of these samples were created using the new Eastern Palace Suite on pages 18-19 of the new catalog.

This first one is my own creation.  I was struggling with this set so I spent time on-line to get other ideas.  A big thanks to everyone who is willing to share.

If you want to create any of these cards

Colors – Dapper Denim – Fresh Fig – Tranquil Tide – Lemon Lime Twist –Whisper White

The next two were cases from other talented demonstrators.  I’m grateful for all the wonderful samples that others are willing to share for all of us.  I hope you will enjoy my twist on these fun projects.  Sorry I don’t have there names to give them credit, but I do thank them.   For this card I used the Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies to create the circles in the center project.

This last card is created by using the aqua painter to brush ink on watercolor paper.  This is then allowed to show through the intricate designs of the Easter Palace Suites dies.  These dies are fun because there are so many different designs you can make from the few designs just by mixing and matching them.
