Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper Tutorial is available and FREE


Card 10 - My favorite

The Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper Tutorial is now available and can be yours for FREE with your $60 Stampin' Up! order using my Hostess Code which is located in the upper right hand corner of my blog in "web version".  Can't find the code, EMAIL me. The tutorial is also available for purchase for $12.95.

Check out my Sneak Peek for the twelve cards I created.  Each post shows what products I used. In this tutorial, I focused on making the most of your DSP using widths of 3". By using this width you increase the number of cards from SIX to EIGHT! That is a bargain. There were two patterns that I used a larger width. They happened to be the two patterns that I did not like - Pale Papaya, reverse side, gold stripes.

Sneak Peeks can be found HERE.

Before you cut the 3" wide strips, depending on what cards you are making you may want to cut a few 1/2" strips off horizontally before for you cut your 3" vertical strips; these are for the inside of the cards. Careful planning and you get many more cards from you DSP/
I used Berry Burst and Pretty in Pink because I had some, the coordinating color for this DSP would be Magenta Madness and Polished Pink

Card 1 Sneak Peek Expressions in Ink Specialty Designer Series Paper Tutorial


Coming Soon - Expressions in Ink Designer Series Paper Tutorial

Twelve card designs

Each Sneak Peek post will have the products I used. You don't need to have the exact sentiment, I am sure you have stamp sets that will fit my designs.

FREE with $60 purchase or available for purchase later this month. Offer cannot be combined with any other other by me and you must use my Hostess Code which is in the upper right side of my blog.


What is new in this tutorial? 

I used 3" strips of the DSP giving you the ability to make more cards from each 12" x 12" piece of paper.  There is only one pattern that I used a wider strip.
