Quick and Easy card using Designer Paper - video tutorial

 


This is a quick and easy card that you can make using card stock, and almost any Designer Series Paper from Stampin' Up!

Below is a video tutorial for making this card.  (If you are viewing this in your email or on a mobile device  - you may need to click on the title to load the video.)

The cards below are very similar to the one I made in the video.  We made these cards at our online Bingo event earlier this fall.  I used retired oval and word dies to make these cards.


Basic directions:

Basic White Thick card stock base: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2
Basic Black layer: 4 x 5-1/4
Designer Series Paper: 3-1/2 x 4-3/4

Put the designer series paper in the paper trimmer, holding it "portrait" style.
Cut off 2"
Turn the 2" piece you just cut  and cut again at 3-1/2; set both pieces aside
Turn the remaining strip of paper lengthwise and cut at 1-1/2

You should end up with 4 small pieces of DSP the following sizes:
1-1/2 x 1-1/2
1-1/2 x 3-1/4
2 x 3-1/2
2 x 1-1/4

Glue the pieces of Designer Paper to the black layer - leaving an even border.  Use the photo above as a guide.
Add a stamped greeting or image to the card front, as desired.
Add a small bow or other embellishments.

I hope you will give this card a try!  CONTACT ME if you have any questions.

Thanks for stopping by!
