Stampin' Up! Bloom Where You're Planted DSP Fun Fold

 I made this fun fold card using the Bloom Where You're Planted Suite!

This suite is in the Annual Catalog on page 80-81.

WOW-

I love it how the dies coordinate with the DSP!

Check out how I used the DSP for the pots & plants that I used on this card.

Neat huh!

 Just look at this cool Paper Lattice!

I cut it in half & used it as shown here.

It is sooo cool!

 

And I LOVE this brick DSP too!

I think this is an elegant card with the ease of using DSP!

This is a fun fold card.

Check out how I made it pointed on both ends!

And check out how it opens up!

This is what it looks like completely opened up.

 

 Notice that the pot & plant are both die cut 

from the Blooms Where You're Planted DSP!

Looks closely at this piece to see how you attach these inside flaps!

The 2 red flaps go on this top fold.

It gets attached to the back fold.

 And when it is opened up all the way & you can see all 3 tabs!!
What a way to CELEBRATE!

Stampin' Up! Sweet Symmetry DSP

 Look at this gorgeous pinwheel card!!

I LOVE IT!

This is a totally Susie card.

 

I used the Sweet Symmetry DSP!

This Sweet Symmetry DSP & few others, are on SALE right now.

CLICK HERE TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT THIS DSP SALE! 

 

How did I make this pinwheel? 

• Bumblebee CS- 2 pieces 2 7/8" x 2 7/8"
• Night of Navy- 2 pieces 2 5/8" x 2 5/8"
• DSP- Bumblebee- 4 pieces 1 1/2" x 1 1/2"
• DSP- Night of Navy- 4 pieces 1 1/2" x 1 1/2"
• I used the Tombo Multipurpose Glue so that I could put down my square & quickly move it so that is was straight & then pressed down into place.  As the liquid glue is very permanent & I love it.  It also gives you a second to move or slide your square to line it up.
  

1.  Start in the corner & add adhesive onto only a triangle back side part of the DSP, so that you can slide the last DSP piece under it to complete the pinwheel when you get to the end.

2.  I started out in one corner using the Night of Navy DSP square.  This is the one that I only added adhesive to the backside of the inside part of the triangle- so that I can slide the last square under it when I get to the end.

3.  I went all the way around adding each square- alternating colors & direction of them.  Use your grid paper & the center point of the 'triangle' for the Bumblee DSP.  Continue alternating colors & direction with every other color- going all the way around the big Night of Navy CS square.  You can see by the photo below how the first Night of Navy DSP square only had glue on a triangle half of it- so that I could slide the last Bumblebee DSP under it.

 

4.  Notice how the first Night of Navy DSP needs adhesive now added to it & stuck down to complete the pinwheel!

5.  It is now all done!

 This is what it looks like opened up!

 So what do you think?

Are you ready to make a pinwheel?

 Here are the measurements & supplies.
