* A pet peeve of mine is the different in Stampin' Up!'s Basic White and the white cardstock used in their Paper Pumpkin kits. I always line the inside of my cards with Whisper White (Basic White). The gray contrast of the inside of the card kit is too noticeable. I decided to make this an easel card so that the "white" is not seen from the inside.   Fellow Paper Pumpkin Kit Lovers - write to Paper Pumpkin/Stampin' Up!.

Over the next month I will be posting sneak peeks of the cards I created using Stampin' Up!'s Flowers for Every Season Designer Series Paper. I created twenty card designs and made forty cards using a half of pack of DSP along with card bases and additional cardstock. Six of the card designs are note card size. I designed the cards so that you could substitute the elements and sentiments with ones you have. Included in this tutorial is a layout diagram to assist you in creating the same cards I did using this DSP.

I was inspired to make this card after watch Julie, a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator's video. The quadrilaterial card was not her original idea. Check out her video HERE. I added an additional layer and changed one of her measurements.

I use liquid glue on 90% of my cards now. It is economical and I believe it holds layers together better. I glued the DSP down first, stamped the sentiment and then I applied to glue to the WW layer and placed down the embossed layer.
