Now the designs in this pack are have all been created to coordinate with the suite images . With a pretty contemporary colour palette & patterns that have so many options. There are 2 each of 6 double sided designs in a useful 12″ x 12″ format giving 12 sheets.

Whimsical Trees

I just had to chose the coordinating stamp set for the suite for my cards. just love the whole suite and it is currently rooted firmly on my desk!

I saw this wonderful layout on Robin Armbrecht’ blog. It is such a simple idea, but perfect for this time of year when we want to make lots of cards for Christmas. I have taken Robin’s instructions and translated them to Metric for ease.

I loved creating this simple layout, letting the pretty paper do all the work.

Each card has been made in the same way so it only tool me 30 minutes to make all four cards!

This is a great way to let the pretty DSP take centre stage & let’s be honest we all have lots of pretty papers sitting in our craft room and this is the ideal project to use them with.

How to make Four Super Quick One Sheet Wonder Cards

Take your piece of Designer series paper and cut into a piece 15.2 cm by 15.2 (6″)
Make a light mark with a pencil 2.5 cm in from each top left corner. (TIP: mark on the front to ensure the pattern remains as per the images)
Line up the marks along the cutting line of the paper trimmer and cut from the top left mark to the bottom right. This will bisect the paper in two. Twist the paper 90 degrees and making sure the two pieces of paper are still aligned cut from the top right mark to the bottom left pencil mark
Remove the pencil marks with a rubber

Stamp the sentiment with Mossy Meadow. (Use the Stamparatus for speed & to get perfect positioning and stamping each time)
Taking note of the 4 corners where you placed the pencil mark, stick the DSP to Layer 1 (Pear Pizzazz), putting the corners in the top left of each piece.
Use the Meadow Moments to dry emboss Layer 3 (Polished Pink).
Add glue to the space on Layer 1 as shown below in the photo
Attach Layer 3 to the glued area to create a continuous diagonal line across the card front
NOTE: this card piece is larger that the card front to allow your to trim it down once the glue is dry with snips or your trimmer (see below)

Stamp the holly image onto a scrap of Basic White card in Mossy Meadow & colour with Blends
Die cut the image and add to the card over a double loop of ribbon with a Dimensional
Add three Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card to finish.
