I am an Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.
This blog is a place to share my creations to make you smile and sometimes laugh.
I love card making and scrap booking plus a WHOLE lot more! I am definitely a child of the 70's and 80's too! I LOVE Pinterest too!!
I love this new Pretty Prints Designer Series Paper (DSP) and wanted to try this new Front Pocket card. It holds a small card with a sweet sentiment. Scroll down to the bottom for a full video tutorial.
Start with a card base measuring 5-1/2" X 8-1/2" scored at 4-1/4"
Then, mark 2-3/4" on the bottom and score from the ends to the mark. It should look like this:
Then, you take TWO pieces of DSP measuring 2-1/2" X 4"
And you cut them diagonally in opposite directions.
Then, you use these triangles.
Next, adhere them to the back of the front of the card, so it looks like that.
Flip the card over and adhere it so the fold forms a pocket.
Use a piece of Basic White measuring 2-3/8" X 2-3/8" adhere a piece of Shaded Spruce measuring 1/2" X 2-3/8" and stamp your sentiment from the Cottage Rose Stamp set.
Here is the video tutorial on how to make this card:
I was looking through my old patterns and found an old iris card pattern and wanted to try this technique again. I couldn't help myself. I just kept making them with different DSP.
I love the look of the iris pattern. Scroll down to the bottom of the post to watch a video tutorial for the card below.
Which one do you like better?
This or That?
You start with 4 pieces of DSP measuring 1" X 3", scored at 1/2" in two different designs. You'll have a total of 8 pieces.
Then, you fold them in half along the score line.
And then, glue them together to make 8 pieces that are 1/2" X 3"
You use this template and start layering one of the designs starting with the 1A going around the template. Then, you start with the second design starting with the 5B going around the template.
Here is the first design laid out and glued together.
And here is the second layer on top of the first layer, also glued down.

Here is my project, a Bay Window card using the new All Together Collection, available on February 1, 2022.
Here's a sneak peek of this new collection, Stamp set, coordinating dies, and DSP.
See how it looks like a Bay Window? I was inspired by Teri McIntosh Stock from Udderly Awesome Stampers.
The great part is you can make two cards out of one 8-1/2" X 11" piece of cardstock and two pieces of 6" X 6" DSP.
Here's are a the measurements.
Scroll to the bottom of the blog for a video tutorial.
Start with a piece measuring 4-1/4" X 11" and score at 3/8", 1-7/8', 3-5/8", 5-1/8" and 5-1/2"
Then, with a piece of DSP measuring 6" X 4-1/8", cut at 1-5/8" and use it for the inside of the card. Then cut the remainder of the DSP at 1-3/8', then at 1-5/8" and you will be left with your last piece measuring 1-3/8" for the Bay Window part of the card.
For the cards, I alternated the DSP to make a pattern.
Here are some other versions of the card.
