I made these cards for the SUO (Stampin' Up! Only) challenge. This week, the challenge is to use Designer Series Paper. That's it! No other requirements.
Well I love DSP. I'm the PaperLady afterall.....giggle.......
And with Mother's Day around the corner, and the beautiful Ornate Garden Specialty DSP on hand, this is what I did.
This is a really simple Gate Fold card. I think it's got WOW factor, how about you?
I think this highlights how well SU's DSP coordinates, both in colour and pattern. This paper is "Specialty" because some sheets have gold foil designs on them, like the one behind the "Mum" sentiment.
And I really love how these cards stand up. It's so eye-catching to see something a little different.
This paper is available for $26 and includes 12 sheets, 2 each of 6 double-sided designs, 12" x 12". The patterns are quite dense so they're great for card making and scrapbooking. You can find it on page 149 of the Annual Catalogue.
Happy papering!

Oh, these are really nice! Great way to get in that great DSP, too - you've hit all my fave sheets from that pack! Such a great and dramatic fold! Thanks so much for playing at SUO!
