Welcome back to the Fancy Friday Blog Hop! We are a group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators that have been or are currently on the Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team. We love sharing our passion for creating with all of you and hope to inspire along the way.
This month's hop is all about Designer Series Paper. Now, anyone who is familiar with my paper crafting will know that I am a lover, a user and also a hoarder of pretty paper! Our challenge this month focuses on using up those gorgeous patterned papers, so that is exactly what I did. I will admit that I had a very hard time choosing what DSP to use but ultimately I decided to go with the Tea Room Specialty Designer Series Paper. This gorgeous paper is retiring and only available until June 3rd or while supplies last so I wanted to give it one more time in the spotlight.
The wonderful thing about this particular pack of DSP is that it comes with 24 sheets, 4 of each double sided designs and it is a little more light weight than the regular DSP, making it perfect for creating envelops with it. I made the envelope using the Envelope Punch Board, this is such a perfect and useful tool that will be retiring from Stampin' Up! on June 3rd, so if you don't have one yet you should get one, I promise you won't regret it!
There are so many options when choosing what pattern to work with, so I figured why not work with several?! TIP: Do not be afraid to mix patterns together, the key to this is using patterns that do not compete with each other and when in doubt florals and stripes always work! For the main image I inked up a new amazing set that will be debuting on June 4th in the new Stampin' Up! 2019-2020 Catalogue. It is called Butterfly Wishes and also coordinates with the Butterfly Duet Punch. I added a little (well maybe a lot) of Wink of Stella to really make the pretty butterfly shine.
Now next on the hop is my unbelievably talented friend Susan Wong. Be sure to check out what she has come up with and make your way through the hop to be inspired.
