Raise your hand if you’re a collector of Designer Series Papers. Count me in, too! I love all of Stampin’ Up!’s papers, including it’s double-sided patterned designs. Not only do I love collecting the paper, but I love using it, as well.
For today’s card, I’m sharing a simple Designer Series Paper (DSP, for short) technique that works really well with the “scenery” designs.
Here are some measurements and information to help you get started:
Wild Wheat card stock base measuring 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, scored and folded at 4 1/4
A 3 1/2 x 3 1/2 piece of your choice of Designer Series Paper. I used the Splendid Autumn 6 x 6 DSP for this first card.
Cut the DSP in strips at 1 1/4, 1, 3/4, and 1/2
Space these pieces out and attach to a piece of Cajun Craze card stock measuring 4 1/2 x 3
Pop this up on card front
Stamp sentiment with Cajun Craze ink on a piece of Crushed Curry card stock measuring 4 3/4 x 1/2. Find the congrats sentiment comes in the Sweetly Scripted stamp set, one of Stampin’ Up!’s Online Exclusives.
Pop up the sentiment on card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Add gems!
Here’s another card using this cutting technique with Stampin’ Up!’s Thoughtful Journey 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper.

Baby Wipe Technique
Layer two baby wipes on top of each other. Be sure to protect your work surface as the ink will bleed. I used my Glass Mat.
Drip drops of reinkers onto baby wipes. I used Wild Wheat, Early Espresso, Pretty Peacock, and Cajun Craze.
Cover the area. It has to be large to accommodate the large background stamp.
Dip the stamp in the baby wipe and then stamp on the Very Vanilla card stock.

When the calendar turns to September, it’s time to starting thinking about creating those fall cards. For me, the perfect bundle is Stampin’ Up!’s Changing Leaves Bundle. It includes the Changing Leaves Stamp Set and the Changing Leaves Hybrid Embossing Folder. Buy them as a bundle, and receive a 10 percent discount. You won’t find this bundle in the catalog. It’s one of the Online Exclusives releases, and it’s been highly popular.
I think you’ll see why it’s been a sought-after item with just a few of the cards I show you in this post today. Be sure to watch the Facebook live replay below to see how this awesome hybrid embossing folder works. It embosses AND die cut sat the same time. And the result is stunning! I show quite a few samples in the video in addition to the few featured in this post.
