simple stamping – cut, flip and add a strip cards
One of the tings I LOVE about our Designer Series Paper beside the fact that the artist’s designs are gorgeous works of art is the fact that the artists strive to make the front and backs of each piece of DSP coordinate! This technique plays into that strength!
This card making technique is called cut-flip and add a strip I first saw it years ago from a fellow demonstrator named Patti B and I thank her for the original inspiration!
Measurements:
BASE: Colored CS to coordinate with the DSP
5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ scored at 4 1/4″
DSP: 4″ x 5 1/4″, 3/4″ x 4″
Basic White CS: scrap for the sentiments
This one used Pumpkin Pie CS for the base.
Cut the 4″ x 5 1/4″ DSP piece into two sections 2″ x 4″ and 3 1/4″ x 4″.
I adhered the DSP strip over the place where the two pieces of DSP meet.
I added Sunny Day Iridescent Dots embellishments to finish this card as well.
I also stamped the sentiment in Coastal Cabana to coordinate.
This used the sentiment from the Hugs for Love stamp set and the border from the Bright Borders stamp set.
Try this technique to make designing a sweet DSP card a snap! Now go and create a card with some DSP you have lying around your craft space! Create some artwork – one stamp at a time.
Happy Stampin’
