Stampin' Up! Inked Botanicals 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper

Friday, July 21, 2023



Give all your paper crafting projects a natural feel with the Inked Botanicals 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper. Handcrafted by artists, this paper was designed by pressing hand-inked flowers onto the paper, giving it a beautiful textured, artistic effect. I used Inked Botanicals DSP paper strips to create this "just a note" card.


Card Details:
  • Very Vanilla Cardstock card base: 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", folded in half
  • Lost Lagoon Cardstock layer: 5 1/4" x 4"
  • Inked Botanicals 6 x 6 DSP strips (4): 3 7/8" x 1 3/16"
  • The "just a note" sentiment is from the Inked and Tiled Stamp Set
  • Embellished with Lost Lagoon 1/4" Bordered Ribbon and Glossy Dots Assortment

Fresh As A Daisy Designer Series Paper Color-Blocking Card

Thursday, July 13, 2023


One of my favorite things to do with designer series paper is to create blocks of color.  The Fresh As A Daisy Designer Series Paper is perfect for color-blocking with the daisy pattern on one side and the more neutral pattern on the reverse.
 


Card Details:
  • Moody Mauve Cardstock: 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", folded in half
  • White Cardstock: 4 1/2" x 3 3/4"
  • DSP measurements and details below..

Designer Series Paper Instructions:
  • I cut 2 pieces of Fresh As A Daisy Designer Series Paper measuring 4" x 3 1/2"
  • First I layered the DSP paper one with the daisies up and one with the neutral reverse side up and then cut them together at the same time
  • No particular way to cut, just on an angle
  • I then switched and mixed up the DSP alternating daisies and the reverse pattern
  • You can make 2 cards with the DSP pieces
