This or That Thursday - Designer Series Paper - Go To Greetings and So Sincere

 Today you get 2 for the price of one with the This and That projects. My first card is THIS, Thinking of You. I have used a piece of Night of Navy card base and some of Stargazing DSP on this one. I added some fussy cut planets from the papers too as without them the card would have been possibly usable as a different type of sentiment. A sad one! I used one of  my favourite greetings stamp sets on this, Go To Greetings. I love this set because there is only 5 phrases or sentiments but they are in lots of different sizes too. The best of both worlds in my opinion.

 

THAT

My THAT card is another card that used the Stargazing Designer Series Papers for only the difference is the stamp set that I used. So Sincere has some really great phrases or sentiments as you have possibly seen the earlier part of this week. This one is a standard upright C6 card but I have used 4 different pieces of DSP. I'm not one for using strips of paper but it was shouting for it to be done. From the gorgeous shades of pink paper with planets to the bright colours and the dark sky in the centre. I used another of the planets for this card which I think sets it off really well. 

 

Technique Tuesday - Designer Series Paper - So Sincere

 Hello again. Today's card is a follow on from yesterday's card. Like most crafters, we don't particularly like wasting papers so once again using the Countryside Inn papers, I cut these 3 frames down to blend together. I used the So Sincere stamp set again for the sentiments. I have many great sentiment stamp sets and this is one of them. It's one thing to make a card for someone but it's even better with the appropriate sentiment. 

I started with a Blueberry Bushell card base and adhered the frames to the base of the card. I used a small white mat for the sentiment and using the Stampin' Write Marker pen in Blueberry Bushell to add the dots all around it. The technique today is using the strips and shapes of DSP wherever you can as they really are so very useful.

 

 

Make It Simple Monday - #simplestamping - Designer Series Paper - So Sincere

 Hello and thank you for stopping by. This week, I couldn't decide which stamp set to use so instead I am going to show you some project using Designer Series Papers and a Sentiment stamp set. Today's card was made using the So Sincere stamp set and papers from the Countryside Inn suite. The papers are really gorgeous and they are mostly shades of blues and as I rather like blue they are right up my street so to speak! Another thing that I like to use is all of the little bits of papers too. In this pack on a previous occasion, I had cut a small rectangle from a piece which left a frame. I have used some of the frames for today's card. Just by using a simple frame, or two, I had some fun and made this very easy card.
