One Horse Open Sleigh 6x6 DSP Sneak Peek


Here is a sneak peek of some NEW Designer Paper.
Notice how the DSP only has a little color at the top.
So I used my Mini Blending Brushes,

The top row in the photo above shows all 12 color/prints 
that are what I would call the backside.
AND
the other 2 rows (12 sheets of DSP) all have scene images on them!
Aren't they all just gorgeous! 
Every sheet of this DSP is just so versatile!!
This is a simple card.
I let the DSP be the star of this.
And I love the way it turned out!

Isn't this little deer just sooo cute!

All I did was add some Linen Thread & a strip with words on it
& attached the DSP to an Early Espresso card base.
