Instructions

This is the template that I have used to cut up the designer series paper.

Card 1 - Old olive card base

Cut a piece of gold foil card to 3 1/4" square and layer up one of the 3" square pieces of dsp. Add this to the centre of the card front using dimensionals.

Stamp the sentiment on a scrap of basic white and punch out with 2" circle punch and layer up on to a 2 1/4" gold foil circle. Add this to the bottom right of the card front overlapping the square.

Stamp one of the leaf stamps on a piece of basic white and add to the inside to write your message.

Card 2 - Pretty peacock card base

Cut a piece of silver foil card to 3 1/4" square and layer up one of the 3" square pieces of dsp.

Run one of the basic white layers through the die cutting machine in one of the Wrapped in Texture embossing folders and trim off the excess (this is a small folder 3 1/4" wide). Adhere this embossed layer to the centre of the card front.

Add the dsp layer to the centre of the embossed layer using dimensionals.

Stamp the sentiment on a scrap of basic white using pretty peacock ink and die cut using the smallest scalloped rectangle. Add this to the centre of the dsp layer on the card front.

Stamp a leaf on the inside layer and adhere in place.

Card 3 - Pear pizzazz card base

Cut a piece of silver foil to 3 1/4" x 4 1/4" and adhere the 3" x 4" piece of dsp to this.

Run one of the 3 7/8" x 5 5/8" pieces of basic white through the die cutting machine in the 3D Old World Paper embossing folder. Adhere this embossed layer to the card front and add the dsp layer on dimensionals in the centre.

Stamp a sentiment on a scrap of basic white using pear pizzazz ink and die cut with the smallest scalloped rectangle and add to the centre, bottom of the dsp layer on the front.

Stamp some leaves on one of the basic white layers and add to the inside of the card.

Card 4 - Garden green card base (landscape)

Cut a piece of gold foil 2 1/4" x 3 1/4" and layer up the remaining dsp piece.

Randomly stamp leaves using garden green ink all over one of the 3 7/8" x 5 5/8" pieces of basic white. Run this layer through the die cutting machine using the 3D Old World Paper embossing folder and adhere to the front of the card.

On another piece, stamp two leaves and adhere this layer to the inside of the card.

Adhere the dsp layer to the top left of the card front.

Stamp the sentiment on a scrap of basic white and punch out with 2" circle punch and layer up on to a 2 1/4" gold foil circle. Add this to the bottom right of the card front overlapping the rectangle.
