I have quite a lot of retiring Designer Series Paper leftover.  So I will be using some of that in the coming month.  Today’s project is a great way to use scraps of paper.  Quite often I do not have enough to make a full layer on a card.  This layout today only requires half of a layer.

 

 

I used two pieces of the Magnolia Lane Designer Series Paper.  You could only use the bottom section of DSP and leave the top as card stock.  But I love mixing two different patterns.

The stamp set I used is on the Retiring List as well.  It is the I Say Hello set.  It has great little sentiments that are “just right”!

The ribbon is a perfect match to the Magnolia DSP .  However, it is a new ribbon.  It is part of the Ornate Garden Suite.  You can see that flyer further down on this post.

To make the cuts, I used the New Paper Trimmer. because the lines are marked well all the way down the trimmer.  I placed the piece of DSP in the center of the trimmer.  Place the top left corner of the DSP against the 3″ line and the top right corner against the 1 1/2″ line.  Cut.  This looks like you are almost cutting it in half, but it gives just enough of the angle I wanted.  You can play with the measurements to get sharper angles.

Thank you very much for stopping in today.  I hope you are anticipating the new Annual Catalog as much as I am.  I will try to be showcasing retiring items in the next few weeks.  Remember the Last Chance / Retiring List means what it is named.  It is Last Chance.  When the products are sold out, they are gone for good.  So if you see anything you want go ahead and order now.  Also please remember my Host Code if your order is below $150.00.

Below are links to the two Retiring or Last Chance Lists.  Keep in mind, a Bundle may retire, but the stamp set and dies or punch can still carry over.  So look for the individual item.  Also, all of the Stampin’ Blends are not retiring.  It is only that in the new catalog, they will be sold in the combo pack only.  The only ones retiring are the 2018-2020 In Color ones.

You may also click on the Shop Now on my Menu bar and be taken to my online store.  There you can see all of the Retiring / Last Chance items as well as all other products.
