Stampin' Up Country Woods Designer Series Paper

This Designer Series Paper is soooo versatile! I love how it looks on this scrapbook spread! And you could put almost any everyday life pictures on these pages!


The lighting appears a little funky in my photography….Sorry! I am including a picture of each page individually also for you to see.

If you like being creative….please join us next month when I hold scrapbooking class! We make two 2-page layouts each month. It is so rewarding to have pages to drop your pictures in. You can then frame them or just add to a book and place on the coffee table. Guaranteed for smiles from all who see it!

This spread was made using Stampin’ Up Country Woods Designer Series Paper- definitely a MUST have! and Country Flowers Stamp and Die bundle.

Our other July spread uses Unbounded Beauty Designer Series Paper and Irresistible Blooms Stamp and Die Bundle. It’s a fun puzzle to put together little 2 inch squares and triangles…..but it is so intriguing to look at!

Let’s see you get creative! I’m attaching a picture tutorial with tips on putting the following page together as a Christmas picture matte. It uses the NEW BEAUTIFUL Season of Green and Gold suite from Stampin’ Up. Click on the picture and see all the beautiful Designer Series Paper and Vellum! I love how the dies cut out the stamps, DSP and vellum that is in this suite.

I’m excited to use this paper! It makes Christmas card making easy and soooo beautiful and festive with the bit of gold foil and printed vellum!

Mediterranean Blooms Suite Collection

This month in my clubs we are making a stunning simple card using the Mediterranean Blooms Suite Collection! I was so attracted to the 2 dies that make the leafy frame - we are using that on the club card….hint hint…come check out one of my clubs! It’s a fun place to hang out with friends and make really special cards once a month! Besides making the special cards, you also get a picture tutorial for each club card.

 
 

This month, Citrus Blooms Bundle saves you an extra 10% when you order as a bundle….hurry - there is Low Inventory right now. You can order direct from my website. estherboyle@stampinup.net

Here is a card we had at a recent card buffet….this card will also be available at my next card buffet sometime in July

getting organized….

At our recent team meeting, one of my team members, Vicky, showed a notebook she put together to help with finding some Stampin’ Up products…..and I just loved it! While I do think the some of the changes in our new catalog have been necessary to help new customers simplify their shopping, it is desirable to see all our Designer Series Paper in one place to decide which one to use on a project or which punch might work best.

This past week, Camille has spent lots of time creating a PDF with all the punches, all the DSP, and all Online Exclusives, and card kits. While these lists will need updating constantly….I think you will find them helpful. Please click on the links below and print for your reference to look at in hand.

PDF Online Exclusives
PDF Punches 2024

I’ll have to do some more work on the Designer Series Paper PDF…for some reason it is not uploading.

Take Care! Keep stamping and I’ll send more out later.

Thanks for visiting!
