Friendly Foliage Stamp and Die Bundle

Friendly Foliage Stamp and Die Bundle

When the Stampin’ Up November Online Exclusives hit the website I fell in love with the new Friendly Foliage Stamp and Die Bundle! The nested dies create a unique die cut focal image using the stamped foliage from the stamp set; because parts of the foliage image are cut away creating a Peek-a-boo effect. When I was designing this card, I didn’t want it to look like the sample card in the Online Exclusives brochure and my mind kept gravitating to the colors Secret Sea and Cloud Cover. I was able to find those colors replicated in the Beautiful Gallery designer series paper and used the 6×6 designer paper cut down to make 5 cards. Since I made several cards for a swap I ended up with a remaining 2″ square from each sheet of paper. I was able also to use 3 of the squares to make a panel that when it was embossed looked just like a full strip of the DSP like I had used in the other 4 cards. With this design, I was able to make 13 cards using up only 3 pieces of the designer paper.

The third card above shows the DSP squares used to recreate a strip of DSP behind the focal point. Be sure to let me know which card you like best. 1…2…or 3. I have provided a printable project sheet below giving all of the measurements and products used to make this beautiful but fast card. The card uses minimal supplies and goes together quickly.

Traditions of Christmas Specialty DSP Flip Card

DSP flip cards

My favorite holiday has always been Christmas and if I had my way I would certainly make Christmas cards all year long! I love the shiny Christmas lights we can see for miles around and who doesn’t love the smell of cedar and scotch pines.

The shiny bling on the Traditions of Christmas card twinkles from the shiny gold foil cardstock and from the gold outline in the design on the Traditions of Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper. I also created a second card using the North Pole Delivery/Jolly Delivery Suite, which created a more whimsical card design. The card design can be created either in landscape or portrait orientation and the designer series paper panel can be flipped or not. I flipped the DSP panels in the Jolly Delivery card and I did not flip the DSP panels in the Traditions of Christmas card; but I like both looks!
