 Welcome to my blog. This week I will focus on the DSP Trimming The Town. It is one of the papers on sale this month. These first cards use the DSP and cardstock. I have not put sentiments yet because I haven’t decided if they will be for Christmas or winter birthdays. Materials and Directions:
Card 1

- Start with a card base 5-1/2 x 4-1/4. I used Night of Navy cardstock and Smokey Slate.
- For the layers I cut the DSP to fit the front the way I wanted to have the images shown. Approximately 4 x 5-1/4. I glued to the front. Inside I will put a sentiment.
Card 2 slim line

- Start with a card base 7 x 8-1/2 score at 3-1/2. I used Pool Party cardstock. Mine has rounded corners because I used a slimline die I have.
- I used the  DSP cut at 3-1/4 x 8-1/4. Again I used a die to cut this. I could get 3/ sheet of paper. I then adhered to the front.
Have fun with the DSP to make your cards. You can order these products from my website.

Playful Pets DSP Mini Journals


 Welcome to my blog. Playful Pets DSP is on sale this month. I thought this would make cute mini journals for craft fairs. You only need the paper to make these. I fuzzy cut the critters.
Directions 
- First you need to measure the front and back of the journal. See photo on how I measure. Be sure to measure each journal some can be different. Mine were 2-3/4 x 4-1/2. Cut your DSP.

-I used a rounded corner punch to round the corners on one side. I then glued to the front and back. I used liquid glue to adhere the pieces. It gets you more wiggle room to get it on straight. I trimmed the paper with scissors along the inside covers if needed.
-  I next fuzzy cut the critters from the DSP. I used layering circle die to cut out the circles in red. I then adhered the critter on the circle and glued to the front of the journal.
The DSP you can buy from my website. The journals I got from the Dollar Store( 3 to a pack).
Here are some others I made.
