Wisteria Wishes plus a sneak peek!

 When I first saw the 'Wisteria Wishes' stamp set-

I thought of trees!!

So check out the awesome tree cards here,

using the 'Wisteria Wishes' stamp set!

 

Where did this DSP come from?

This is a sneak peek of the Sweetest Christmas DSP

that is on page 9 in the July-December (Holiday) Catalog.

This DSP will be available to order on July 1, 2022!

How did I do it?

I used Garden Green ink & stamped the trees.

I inked them, stamped them onto the Basic White card stock

and then 'shadow' stamped them.

This means I stamped them again 2 times without reinking my stamp.

This is how you get the lighter shades of the green trees.

This is what it looks like when standing up. 

It is a fun z fold (my favorite fold).

So what do you think?

It is awesome huh!

Butterfly Kisses

Wow- this is such a pretty card!

I just love the way it turned out.

It is a totally Susie card.

 

I used the Butterfly Kisses Suite on

pages 36 & 37 in the Annual Catalog when creating this card.

This card is a fun fold card called a Center Gate Double Flap Fold.

Notice here how the top flap is attached to the left front side

& the bottom flap is attached to the bottom right side!

NOTE:  Be sure when attaching the circle words that you only

use dimensionals on the top 1/2 of this & do NOT have

any dimensionals below thee center of the card-

so that you can slide the lower flap under it.

This is what it looks like when it is opened it.

NOTE:  You would not have to make this a double flap card that tucks.

You could just attach both flaps to the left side of the card front.

Then both flaps would open together & there would be no tucking.

Here are the measurements & supplies.

stamp set:  'Best Butterflies'

• Fresh Freesia- 4 1/4 x 11"- score at 2 3/4" & 8 1/4"- for gate fold card base
