getting the most out of your designer series paper
When you cut your Designer Series Paper efficiently it can go a long way! And this card is a perfect example of that efficiency!
I cut the 6″ x 6″ Subtle DSP from four sheets in half at 3″ and then at 1/2″, 3/4″ and 1″ sections depending upon the color, stretching the amount of cards you can do with just a few sheets of paper!
Measurements:
BASE: Basic White CS: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″
Layer: 3″ x 5″
Basic Black CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″
DSP: 3″ x 1/2″, 3″ x 3/4″, 3″ x 1″
Lemon Lolly CS: 3″ x 1 1/4″
On the long 5 1/2″ side, rub the upper edge of the paper with an embossing buddy from the embossing accessories kit. Stamp the Wishing open sentiment in Versamark and sprinkle with the White embossing powder and heat set with the Heat Tool until melted.
Adhere to the Basic White card base, this will have the wishing turned to a vertical position.
