4. I glued the DSP layer to the front of the card base and then glued the White layer on top.
5. Bee- I stamped the bee on Whisper White cardstock and then die cut it out. I colored the wings using light Seaside Spray Stampin blend. For the body I used Dark Daffodil Delight. I then adhered to flower using mini dimensionals.

Quick cards using DSP from the Mini Catalog and Sale A Bration

Welcome to my blog. Hope you had a great weekend. Did you get some crafting done? I have several birthdays coming up and needed more cards. I decided to make some Quick Cards using DSP from the Mini Catalog and Sale A Bration catalogs. For those new to card making DSP refers to Designer Series Paper. This paper has images on both sides. Sometimes it’s hard to choose the side you want to use for the card front layer but with this card technique you can see both sides.
Materials and Directions:
Card base- choose a color of cardstock you want to use for your card base. From an 8-12 x11 piece cut 5-1/4 x5- 1/2( you can get 2 ). Then score @ 1 inch on the 5-1/4 inch side.




Card front- DSP cut at 5-1/4 x4 adhere to the card base
Side strip- DSP 3/4 x5-1/4 glue to side strip of cardbase
Inside- Whisper White 3-3/4 x 5 adhere
Lables I used the dies from Painted Poppies bundle to make the labels
Sentiments are from the Peaceful Moments bundle.
Here are two I made into sympathy cards.


Happy Crafting!
