Happy Thoughts with Fine Art Floral DSP

Welcome to the 3rd Thursday BLOG HOP for January 2021.  This month we are enjoying  the new products from our Spring collection featured in the Spring Mini Catalog.  Plus it’s Sale-a-bration Time at Stampin’ Up!  So when you purchase any $50 in items, you can add a FREE product from the promotion to your cart.  It could be a stamp set, or patterned paper!  

I have decided to share a BRIGHT and CHEERY card project with you this month.  Featuring the new Fine Art Floral DSP and a new stamp set Happy Thoughts.  And being that I am using our beautiful patterned paper, I want to share an easy way to create layers and use its fullest potential!

Take a look at my Stampin’ Show & Tell video tutorial, and watch as I get two layers for my card from one piece of 4 x 5 patterned paper.   Then see the full tutorial with the supply list below in this post.

Well, that was easy!  Do you agree?  And think of all the beautiful patterned paper you probably already have on hand.  You could craft one from this idea even today. Just pick our pattern, pull some coordinating cardstock for the base color and the ink to match!  Cut your layers and away you go. 

Now that you have visited with me, and I hope my project may have inspired you, it’s time to send you along to the next blog with Andrea Tracy-Tucker.  Please leave me and the other paper crafters comments on our posts.  We just love to know what you think of our ideas.
