I love when Stampin' Up! carries over product from one season to the next and this project have several items.  Stamps, dies, and paper from last year's holiday catalog are still available.  This cardinal, not only being Ohio's state bird, is such a classic symbol at Christmas time.  

The Toile Tidings Designer Series Paper is a classic too.  I don't know why but the designs remind me of my childhood.  It must be something, maybe a decoration, from when I was little.  The paper is unique too... one side is all Real Red and the reverse is all Garden Green.  With a Very Vanilla base, it adds the perfect antique or aged feel.  Take a look!

Here are my card details:

• Real Red card base cut 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 scored at 4-1/4 on the long side
• Piece of Toile Tidings DSP (green pattern) cut 4 x 5-1/4
• Piece of Toile Tidings DSP (red pattern) cut 3-1/4 x 4-1/2
• Very Vanilla CS cut 3 x 4... stamp words in upper right corner
• Adhere all above piece in order
• On a 4-1/4 x 5-1/2 piece of Very Vanilla CS, stamp cardinal and branch.
• Color images with Stampin' Blends markers (Cherry Cobbler, Old Olive, Soft Suede, Daffodil Delight)
• Die cut images and adhere branch to card front then use Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere cardinal

I have a last minute post!  I did these projects on a Facebook Live a couple of weeks ago and to my surprise, the video disappeared.  Ugh, technology... or is it the user?  Ha! Ha! 

Any way, I wanted to photograph and get these posted so you can see each card project has a main focal piece from one (yes, just one) sheet of the Pressed Petals Specialty Designer Series Paper.  I was able to make 9 cards from that one sheet.   The Specialty DSP is retiring tonight at midnight if you still wanted to get your hands on this beautiful paper, you can Shop Now. 

CLICK ON IMAGES TO ENLARGE (had to reduce not to over load the page)

A few other items that I used is the Pressed Petals Specialty Washi Tape (also retiring), the Timeless Label Punch, Mossy Meadow, Very Vanilla, and Merry Merlot card stock, and Dimensionals.   (the Leaf Punch is already gone but you could substitute with the Sprig Punch).  The Glitter Enamel Dots are also retiring and still available.  I used on some flower centers. 

• All card bases are standard 8-1/2" x 5-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
• Cut one sheet of DSP from Pressed Petals DSP pack and follow those measurements (see below)
• Cut layers 1/4" larger for smaller pieces.  For example, if cut DSP is 4 x 4, cut mat 4-1/4 x 4-1/4
• For DSP pieces that are almost a full frontal piece, if you to mat with card stock, cut CS to 5-3/8" x 4-1/8"
• Embellish how you would like

Below is a great picture of the One Sheet of paper I used from the Pressed Petals Specialty DSP pack.  Just cut the long 12" strip of pink and white daisies off first.  Then you can cut up each of the seven remaining pieces to use on your card fronts.  That 12" strip... I made two cards with it!

Oh....by the way, Pressed Petals is available as in below picture in an entire PRODUCT SUITE (retires tonight!).

I hope you enjoy!

Hey everyone.  Welcome!

How are you holding up during the Covid-19?  Still kinda crazy as things in Ohio slowly, slowly try to reopen.  Praying that everyone is staying safe and still social distancing.
