Case That Swap Card - Gilded Autumn DSP

Hey Crafty Friends!  This week on my blog I am focusing on "card swaps".  I participate in several swap groups and I love swapping because I gain lots of inspiration and I also get samples to share with all of you.  Today I CaSEd a card I received in a Stampin' Connection swap hosted by Jini Merck.  This card is from Sandy Hughes, I was really attracted to the layout of this card and knew I was going to CaSE it for sure. 

Card Details 

• Paper
• Mint Macaron card base 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", score and fold at 4 1/4", 3" x 4"
• Early Espresso layer 5 1/4" x 4
• Very Vanilla layer 5" x 3 3/4", 3" x 3" 
• Gilded Autumn Specialty DSP 2 3/4" x 1 1/2" ( x2), 2" x 2" (x2)
• Stamps
• Beautiful Autumn
• Ink
• Early Espresso
• Tools/Embellishments
• Stitched So Sweetly Dies
• Gilded Gems
• Basket Weave & Metallic Ribbon Combo Pack 

---

Tip: If you are going to use both sides of DSP like I did for this card, I recommend cutting DSP to 5 1/2" x 3 1/2".  On the short side cut 1 1/2".  That will give you two strips 1 1/2" x 5 1/2" and 2" x 5 1/2".  Cut the 1 1/2" strip at 2 3/4" and the 2" strip at 2" twice.  See graphic below.

It is a Card Case Sunday!!! Featuring the From My Heart Specialty DSP

I am back with my monthly Card Case Sunday.  Each year I struggle with what to do with all my left over Valentine's DSP, well my fellow Texas Demo, Anne Marie Hile, inspired me with her creation and this is my version of her card.  It is almost identical, I used a different sentiment and leaf, changed a few of the paper measurements, and added more flowers.

This is a great way to use up any left over Valentine's paper and a great card for a Wedding or Birthday.  I guess I just needed the right inspiration for this paper, I love the collaborative nature of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators.  We strive to Create, Inspire, and Share.

Card Details:

• Paper
• Basic Black
• Card base 11" x 4 1/4", score and fold at 5 1/2"

Tip:  I attached the ribbon to the Whisper White layer and glued it down, then carefully added the other layers by lightly applying glue and sliding the paper under the ribbon.  It was easy.

Waterfront Catalog Card Case

Hello and welcome to my second October catalog card case.  Today, my one and only son, Sam, turned 16.  To celebrate his birthday we had his favorite birthday cake, Pecan Pie.  Happy Birthday son, I love you!!

This week I am featuring projects made with the Waterfront stamp set.  I have had this stamp set for a long time and this is the first card I made with it.  It is a lovely set and I think it will make great masculine cards.  Here is my stepped up version of a card on page 149 of the 30th Anniversary Annual Catalog.  

Measurements:

Blackberry Bliss base 5 1/2 x 4 1/4  

Mint Macaron 5 1/4 x 4  

Whisper White 5 x 3 3/8

Ink:

Mint Macaron and Blackberry Bliss

---

Tip: The original card in the magazine is stamped on a 3 1/2 x 5 note card.  I prefer A4 size cards (5 1/2 x 4 1/4). I added a car base and a layer to achieve the desired card size and to make the stamped colors pop.
