Lillybet's Papers

As you saw yesterday I love both Fancy fold Cards and cards that use DSP. The double front card which I have done a few times now is perfect for both these goals. This one uses the beautiful Sand and Sea DSP- totally gorgeous and very ocean themed on one side but totally versatile on the reverse. I've done the double front card before (you can search using the labels bar on the right banner of this page for more samples and instructions) and you'll find links to more fancy folds on the PAGE icon at the top of this page. This is what I mean about how beautiful the papers are. and coming tomorrow..... I hope you have a creative week and remember,  "don't just post online,  post something pretty!" cheers, Liz

It's been a little while since SU had a mini flower punch so I am so pleased to see one incorporated into the Strawberry Builder Punch.  It is a lovely shape and t coordinates with the flower in the Sweet Strawberry stampset but has multiple uses with plain or printed card or paper. Playing with new products is always fun, and I like to try and create some cards a little different from the suite- different colours and papers and uses. I used some of the gorgeous DSP from the Sand and Seas suite and my favourite card base Sahara Sand. I initially stamped the card base and most of the photos are of that version but in the end I decided it was a bit busy so I cut up the first version and remade it with a plain base -as above. The strawberry builder punch has the super cute little flower. The Calyx stamp can be snipped to create 2 sets of 2 leaves as well. You can see how I've done that in the photo below.It is easy to shape your flat punched paper flowers and give them more dimens...
