The beautiful, and varied, Designer Series Papers from Stampin’ Up! are something they are known for. And they are one of my favorite things. Today I have a card made using scraps of DSP. I love to save and use my smaller pieces of leftover DSP. Maybe today’s card will give all of you an idea.
Papers
To continue my DSP love, I have used the Take To The Sky Designer Series Paper for this card. These are leftover pieces from previous cards. The clouds and the check are both sides of the same paper piece. And I love the Night of Navy with the plane diagrams. It is from the sheet that has sections of different designs and a tag. Pulling from these three pieces, I paired them with Night of Navy for the card base, a layer of Basic White, and then each piece is layered on Smoky Slate. I have all of the measurements for you below. Plus….this paper is one of the DSPs included in the current Sale with 15% off!
Stamps and Dies
To complete the card I had to play along with the airplane theme. So I used the matching Adventurous Sky Bundle. There are three sizes of airplanes in this set along with clouds and fun sentiments. I used the middle size airplane. It is colored with Stampin’ Blends and then die cut using the matching set of Dies.
To create a fun way of placing the sentiment, I thought of the airplanes pulling banners at the beach. I love the sentiment and it is from the set as well. With the small size of the sentiment I looked for a small Die in my collection. I found this one in a new set. It is from the Greetings of the Season Dies that are an Online Exclusive. These match the stamp set that is all greetings. So there are quite a few fun shapes that can be used as tags also. The tag hole is hidden behind the airplane rear.
Finishes
There was not a lot of room or need for a lot of bling on this card. With all of the different layers I decided for very simple. My choice of bling is the Pecan Pie & Clear Ribbon Adhesive Gems. I used three of the Clear ones and spaced them in the squares of the plaid paper. There is one larger size and then two smaller.
Measurements
This layout is one that I have used previously and will use again. Obviously the sizes of the DSP can be adjusted to fit your leftover pieces. But here are my measurements.
- Night of Navy card base is 4 1/4 X 11, scored and folded at 5 1/2
- Layer of Basic White is 3 7/8 X 5 1/8
- Cloud DSP is 1 X 4 3/4 with a Smoky Slate layer of 1 1/8 X 4 7/8
- Navy plane DSP is 2 1/2 X 4 with a Smoky Slate layer of 2 5/8 X 4 1/8
- Plaid DSP is 3 X 1 with a Smoky Slate layer of 3 1/8 X 1 1/8
