Demonstrator Training Blog Hop - Love It, Chop It!!


Hello friends!! Welcome to Kylie Bertucci's training group blog hop for February 2019. We are a group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators working with Kylie from Australia to learn more about improving our Stampin' Up!! (r) businesses. Today I am embracing the Kylie's philosophy of "love it, chop it".  She has a point why buy DSP that is totally gorgeous, that you adore so much you hate to cut it up only to have it waste away in your stash.  Cut it up and share the love. I did and it was fun. Two pieces of Botanical Butterfly DSP made 24 fantastic cards.

  Measurements:
Highland Heather base 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 
 Basic Black layer 3 1/8 x 4 1/8
Butterfly Gala DSP 3 x 4
Whisper White Sentiment 1 x 4
Whisper White liner 5 1/2 x 4 
Ink:
Memento Tuxedo Black

You can make this type of batch cards with any DSP.  So easy and quick, check out my process below. The best part of this is that Botanical Butterfly DSP is free with a qualifying purchase during Sale-A-Bration, so that make this batch of cards even sweeter.  



I use an assembly line process to create a big batch of cards. Here are my steps in this big process:

  • Cut DSP (two sheets 12 x 12) 3 x 4 
  • Cut Basic Black layer 3 1/8 x 4 1/8 
  • Cut Whisper White liner for inside card (I always add a liner)
  • Prep 24 card bases 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 
  • Gather Ribbon and any other embellishments
  • Cut 24 pieces of Whisper White 1 x 4, stamp with sentiment, punch Banner Triple Punch
  • Adhere DSP to Basic Black layer (all 24)
  • Adhere Whisper White liner inside card bases (all 24)
  • Tie ribbon onto DSP layer, add sentiment strip with Stampin Dimensional (all 24)
  • Use Multipurpose Glue to attach DSP layers to card base 
  • All done!! Time for pictures. 




Product List




Note: The Organdy Ribbon Combo pack from sale-A-Bration are no longer order-able due to higher than anticipated demand and are not listed in my supply list above.  Whisper White Sheer Ribbon #144172 would be a good substitute.

It's Your Day!! - Beautiful Butterfly Gala DSP

 Hey Crafty Friends!!  I am at the Texas Basket Weaving Convention today weaving away. Before I get my day started weaving I want to share this little gem with you.  I made it using Kylie Bertucci's love it chop method.  Her philosophy is if you love chop it up, make a card and share it.  How many of us have like a DSP so much that we are reluctant to cut it up and then we end up with a collection of retired paper.  


  Measurements:
Lemon Lime Twist base 5 1/2 x 4 1/4 
Basic Black 3 1/4 x 4 1/4 DSP 
Botanical Butterfly DSP 3 x 4
Whisper White liner 5 1/2 x 4 
Ink:
Momento Black

TIP:  Cut a 12 x 12 sheet of DSP into 3 x 4 pieces, this gives you 12 card fronts.  That is 12 cards!!! Love it and chop it up, don't be a paper hoarder like me.
