DSP Display Card

I created this card using the instructions and video by Rachel at Stamp Your Art Out - Click HERE.  Please, please, please no one comments here; but please at least leave a comment on Rachel's video and give her a thumbs up. All bloggers spend a great amount of time (including me) to share what they love.

Rather than duplicate the information, I have listed the materials I used.

Stampin' Up! Products

• Early Espresso cardstock - see below
• Card base measures 6 1/4" x 5 1/2"
• Score at 1" and 5 1/4"*
• Very Vanilla cardstock
• Dandelion Wishes and Layering Leaves stamp sets
• Early Espresso ink
• Banner Triple punch
• Adhesive-Backed Dragonflies & Birds

I made a slight adjustment to Rachel's scoring of the card base. Instead of scoring the card base at 1" from both ends, I scored it at 1" and 5 1/4". This insures the folded card will be closer to the closed card base of 4 1/4"

This design is my blog followers all-time favorite tutorial. I've created tutorials for years now and when I released this layout, so many supported my work by purchasing this unique layout that uses the DSP to create a continuous layout. Check out other cards I have posted with this layout HERE.

Clearance Rack Refresh and My LAST Chance at Retaining My Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Position

Good morning blog followers,

NEW ITEMS HAVE BEEN RELEASED ON THE CLEARANCE RACK - they will disappear fast. This morning I lost out on an opportunity to purchase items because they became unavailable after I started placing my final order. Click HERE for Clearance Rack items.

Because of my two surgeries in July and August, I will not make the minimum sales quota for this quarter at Stampin' Up!.  Well, that is not exactly true, if Stampin' Up! had inventory, I would have made my quota.  Having products from the new catalog just released two weeks ago and their most popular products not orderable until October is unacceptable and a terrible business practice.

If you place a $50 order by September 30, using this Hostess Code GGBNGAHH you will receive one of my many tutorials available for purchase. If you place a $75 order by September 30 using the same Hostess Code, you will receive two of my tutorials. Click HERE for all my available tutorials. 

Please consider placing an order with me, I would greatly appreciate it. If my quota is not met, I will no longer be purchasing Stampin' Up! products as well as I will not be creating tutorials using their newest Designer Series Paper. Stampin’ Up! products will no longer be promoted on my blog. 

Each day brings me closer to my goal of regaining my strength because of my NEVRO spinal cord stimulator implant. Up until last week, I didn’t feel I had progressed very well. With prayers and many anxiety-filled tears, my life has turned the corner and I’m getting stronger every single day. 

Thank you for your support,

Beth

KEEP SCROLLING - THERE ARE POSTS BELOW

Dearest Blog Followers,

I am having surgery this month which will keep me from getting to my craft room. I suffer from nerve damage and I am have a Nevro Spinal Cord Stimulator implanted to help the pain using sensors. 

My recovery is expected to take up to two months. I been down this road two other times with an eight-level back fusion and a repair to that fusion. The older you get, the harder the road to recovery.

After the surgery, I cannot play in my grandma's crap room (as my Maddie calls it) for extended periods of time. You won't be seeing as many posts, but I'm still around.

Happy Stampin'
