STARS Mystery Card Challenge

Hey Crafty Friends!! Once a month my fabulous upline hosts a team meeting on Zoom, part of that meeting is a Mystery Card Challenge.  Before the meeting she will give us some clues of what to bring and then during the meeting we are given more clues on how to assemble to card.  Once we are done we all share and it is amazing how our cards can be so different.  This is one of my favorite group activities.

Introducing the Gilded Autumn Specialty DSP

 Hey Crafty Friends!!  The Aug - Dec Mini Catalog went live last week.  Well, I am in love with the Gilded Autumn DSP.  It is a beautiful mix of colors with some gorgeous foil accents added. All the colors that make you long for the crisp days of autumn when the leaves are falling off the trees. Fall is my favorite time of year so this paper is perfect for me. 

Card Instructions 

  1. Start with Early Espresso card base cut 5 1/4" x 5 1/2", score and fold at 4 1/4".
  2. Cut piece of DSP 4" x 5 1/2 and adhere to the inside of the card front using Stampin' Seal+.
  3. Stamp sentiment on 3" X 2" Very Vanilla with Soft Suede ink and die cut with Tasteful Labels dies.  
  4. Use same die to cut a Mint Macaron label.  Cut the label in half and glue to back of sentiment letting a bit of label show on each end.  Attach to card front with dimensionals.
  5. Color 18" piece of ribbon from the Flowers for Every Season Ribbon pack with Dark Mint Macaron blend.  Once dry tie tie around left side of card  front.
  6. Add Gilded Gems to finish the card.  All done!!



Tip: Ribbon is placed to cover seam where DSP joins the card stock, it makes the inside look finished.  That is the backside of the DSP, so gorgeous.
