Finding Inspiration Friday

2 Cute Cards

Hi Everyone,

Today, I wanted to take a minute and share with you an easy way to create cards and be inspired. I was so inspired by the Real Red holiday card I made. I had done this for a Saturday Stamper group. This card is a bit Stepped up, so when I had a home party to prep for, I really liked this card, but I wanted the novice stamper to have a more simple project, but still be a Wow!

The Holly Textured Embossing folder and Stitched Felt Elements
make this card a real WOW!

This card is WOW as well, but easier for a novice stamper.

For my card that I created for the home party, there is just one stamp to stamp from the Christmas Pines Stamp set. The Merry Music DSP is my all time favorite! There are 24 sheets of wonderful sheet music in white and black sheets. Using the DSP is so easy for new stampers. It adds great texture without needing a Big Shot. I did have my sample of the red card at the home party and the next person to host would be able to have a class where we use the Big Shot for the next project. Added WOW products were the black rhinestones and the Quilted Christmas 1/4" Ribbon.

I had so much fun creating the musical card. It really inspires me to create more projects using the Merry Music DSP. I hope I have inspired you to take a look at a layout you like and switch out the colors and embellishments. It's amazing how different the projects look. 

There are still a couple of weeks to take advantage of the October Designer Series Paper sale. DSP is my favorite product that Stampin' Up! sells. It's amazing to learn that the artists will hand draw and paint many of the DSP before it's put into print. There are some talented artists for sure. 

I hope you enjoyed my project today. Share and comment because I'd love to chat.
