With Father's Day fast approaching, I decided it was time to play with the new Let's Go Fishing DSP (Designer Series Paper). This paper is part of a fabulous suite of products which includes stamps, dies, and an embossing folder. Alas, I only have the paper, but I still enjoyed making a variety of cards with just the paper and greeting stamps I had on hand. To make the cards shown above, I used the same card layout that I recently used with different paper--Countryside Inn DSP. I don't know who I initially got the DSP measurements from for this layout, but it's a great card for showing off three different DSP patterns. You can watch THIS VIDEO to see me make the following card. The measurements are also listed below. Measurements: Fly DSP (left side): 1-7/8 x 5" Net DSP (top right): 1-7/8 x 2-1/2" Blue DSP (bottom right): 1-7/8 x 2-3/8" Misty Moonlight Tag: 2-1/8 x 2-3/4" Vanilla piece on tag: 1-7/8 x 1-7/8" Vanilla layer behind DSP: 4 x 5-1/4 Misty Moonlight card base: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 (score at 4-1/4) The fish are fussy cut from the DSP. I trimmed the top corners to make a tag and added the In Color Jute Trim (Pebbled Path color). I pulled the trim apart to fray it. The greeting is from a very old Paper Pumpkin kit (the first one I ever received!). I used other patterns and colors to make two additional cards with this pattern: The color of the card base and tag is Mossy Meadow. The greeting is from Beautiful Balloons set. The color of the card base and tag is Pebbled Path. The greeting is from Beautiful Balloons set. The In-Color Jute Trim includes 5 colors; at least three of them work well with this DSP. This next card is a super simple card quick card using a 2" strip of DSP from the pack (2 x 5-1/2"). It is mounted on a Misty Moonlight cardstock strip (2-1/4 x 5-1/2"). The card base color is Crumb Cake. The remaining cards were cased from other talented demos. I will include the link where I found them. Do check out the originals as they use fun images and greetings from the Gone Fishing bundle which I do not have. The card above was cased from Rachel Traudt HERE. The card above was cased from Susie Wood HERE. The card above was cased from Brian King HERE. Give these cards a try using the same Let's Go Fishing DSP, or use the pattern with other DSP. I love DSP card patterns that can be used over and over! That's all for today! Please use the monthly host code on your online orders each month.

Rotate and cut at 3” and again at 1 ½”. This will give you 3 pieces (1- 3” x 5 1/2") (2- 1 ½” x 5 ½”). Then cut the ½” strip to 5 ½”. 2- After cutting all your DSP, group these together into the pieces you want to use on your cards. 1- 3” piece, 1- 1 ½” piece, and 1- ½” piece. You will have some 1 ½” pieces left over you can use these for a bonus card, see below. 3- On your 3” pieces stamp your choice of starburst, dots, or hearts, randomly from the left corner to the right corner in VersaMark ink. Sprinkle Gold Embossing Powder over the stamped images and shake off any excess. Heat with Heat Tool. 4- Add the 1 ½” strip to the bottom of your card. Then the 3” piece on the top. Cover the area where they meet with the ½” strip. 5- Stamp your greeting with your choice of coordinating color, I used Night of Navy, on the 1” Whisper White piece. Add to your card over the ½” strip on the right side with dimensionals. 6- Wrap 20” of White Bakers Twine under the greeting and tie a bow on the right side. All Done! Bonus Card! 1- Group your extra 1 ½” pieces into groups of 2 or 3 coordinating patterns. (If you have one that doesn’t match you can use just one by its self too). 2- Add these together on a cardbase starting on the bottom of the card and layering the others in the group to cover the card front. 3- If any pieces are solid colors you can stamp the greeting directly on the DSP. If not stamp on a 1” piece of Whisper White Cardstock and adhere to your card with dimensionals. 4- With 20” of White Bakers Twine wrap around the card and tie a bow near the greeting. Here are some examples using 3 pieces, 2 pieces, and 1 piece. Here is the same project as a video tutorial.

I recently saw a video by fellow demonstrator Angie Oldenberg, making a card very similar to the Rococo Rose card below. I loved the way she made the card, and the effect produced by the way she had used the Oh so Ombre papers. Isn't it lovely?! The papers are not only gorgeous, but they are also FREE with Saleabration! For every £45 you spend, you can earn a free level 1 item of your choice from the Saleabration catalogue. If you spend £90 you can choose 2 level 1 items or 1 level 2 item. But be quick - Saleabration ends on 28th February, and items are only available while stocks last! The Ombre effect on the plain papers runs from side to side, which works well with the standard method of cutting strips of paper & then cutting them diagonally to get your sunburst effect. But, the effect on the patterned Ombre papers runs from corner to corner, so I needed a different method of cutting the paper. I love a challenge, so I devised a different way to cut the strips! Hope you like it Thanks for popping by Jane x Instructions 3 3/4” x 5 1/2” (9.5 x 14cm) scrap card ( I started with 3 7/8" x 5 5/8" then trimmed to size later.) Draw a line at the centre on the long side. DSP 6” x 6” (15.2 x 15.2cm) Choose a paper that either has a diagonal contrast, such as the patterned ombre paper, or has 2 toning but contrasting sides. Cut DSP diagonally, then cut both triangles the same. Line up the right angle on the cutting line of your trimmer, pointing downwards. Line up one of the other points at 1” (2.5cm) & cut. Keeping the same corner lined up on the cutting line, move the top corner, on the same side as before, to the 1” & cut again. Repeat until you have either 3 or 4 strips. Keeping the same bottom corner still lined up on the cutting line, move the other top corner to the 1” mark & cut. Repeat until all the paper is cut. NB keep the pieces in order as you cut them. Depending on whether you cut 3 or 4 pieces before swapping sides, your pieces will now look like one of these. Note that in both cases, I have numbered the pieces from 1-8, such that number 4 is the smaller piece left over when you finished cutting. Now adhere the pieces to the scrap card as in the diagram below. All of the L’s are one side of the paper, and D’s are the second side. Or in the case of ombre paper, use the lighter triangle for L & the darker for D. Trim away the overhanging paper & adhere to a card base. Use a die cut or punched greeting to cover the central join.
