Today I am sharing a sweet card made using the fabulous Everything is Rosy designer series paper and die cuts. This gorgeous Medley of products is only with us until the 31^st May so grab it while you can.

To recreate the Everything is Rosy card you will need;

Melon Mambo 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored and folded at 4⅛” – rounded lower right corner
Night of Navy 5½” by 3¾” – rounded lower right corner
Everything is Rosy dsp 5⅜” by 3⅝” – rounded lower right corner
Night of Navy 3” by 3”
Whisper White 2¾” by 2¾”
Whisper White 5⅜” by 3⅝” – for the inside – rounded lower right corner
Whisper White envelope

This card is so simple and quick to make. I began by choosing a piece of the stunning dsp and adhering it to the Night of Navy layer using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I wrapped a length of the Night of Navy ribbon with the rose gold edging around the panel and adhered it to the back with Sellotape. The whole piece was then added to the front of a Melon Mambo card base.

I die cut a circle from the Whisper White square using my Big Shot and the Layering Circle dies. I also die cut a slightly larger circle using the same die set from the Night of Navy Square. I chose one of the stunning die cuts included in the product medley and glued it to the Whisper White circle with the Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

The sentiment was stamped onto the Whisper White circle with Night of Navy ink. This circle was then added onto the Night of Navy circle with Dimensionals. The circle topper was then added to the card front with the Multipurpose glue. I added a trio of Glitter Enamel Dots to the circle topper.

I stamped a flower from the stamp set in Melon Mambo ink onto the inside panel for the card. I added the leaves and flower centre in Night of Navy ink. The same images and colours were used to decorate the envelope.

I started by selecting the 2 co-ordinating pieces of dsp and cutting them to size using my Paper trimmer. I matted the larger striped panel of dsp onto the larger layer of Night of Navy cardstock with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. This layer was then added to a Poppy Parade card base with the same adhesive.

Using Designer Series Paper (dsp)

Posted on March 17, 2019March 16, 2019 by Mo Rootes

I don’t know about you but I buy our gorgeous Designer Series Paper (dsp). I admire it and stroke it and yes occasionally sniff it but I rarely use it………..what is that all about! So this year I have decided to do something about it. So with this in mind I got out thee beautiful Petal Promenade, found a sketch on Pinterest………I love Pinterest and set to work.

Making the Petal Promenade card

www.crafty-rootes.com – A pretty floral card made using the Petal Promenade designer series paper (dsp)

You will need;
Mossy Meadow card base
Calypso Coral 5⅝” by 3⅞”
DSP 5½” by 3 ¾”
Mossy Meadow 4⅜” by 2⅞”
DSP 4¼” by 2¾”
Whisper White 5⅜” by 3⅝”
Scrap Whisper White and Calypso Coral

I started by selecting the dsp patterns I wanted to use – one busy pattern and one fairly solid pattern and cut them down to the sizes above using my Trimmer.

www.crafty-rootes.com – A pretty floral card made using the Petal Promenade designer series paper (dsp)

Next I chose and scored my card base and cut my Calypso Coral and Mossy Meadow layers and rounded the upper right corner of all the pieces using the Detailed Trio Punch and adhered them together with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

www.crafty-rootes.com – A pretty floral card made using the Petal Promenade designer series paper (dsp)

I stamped the sentiment from the Floral Frames stamp set in Mossy Meadow ink and stamped it onto scrap Whisper White cardstock and die cut it out using the Layering Circle framelit dies. I cut a slightly larger scalloped circle using the same set and a scrap piece of Calypso Coral cardstock. I glue these together with the Multipurpose Liquid Ahdhesive and added the sentiment to the layered pieces on Dimensionals.

The whole panel was then added to the Mossy Meadow card base with the multipurpose glue. I had a small Whisper White butterfly, punched out using the Butterfly Duet Punch, on my desk and added it to the card front with a Mini Glue Dot. The Basic Pearls were coloured using the dark Calypso Coral Blend pen and added to the butterfly and sentiment.

This is a really quick card; it took longer to choose the patterns to use than it did to make the card. I hope you like it.
