Simply Zinnia is one of my favourite stamp sets and I am sorry to see them on the Last Chancel list. You may recall the Simply Zinnia stamps that I coloured. This stamp set is truly one to have if you love to colour. Below I used a coordinating designer series paper.

Hello Friends,
Good morning! How has your week been.? Keeping warm I hope. My city is in a deep freeze, and I know so many of you are too. Stay safe everyone.
This is the first card that I ever made using Designer Series Paper as the focal point and I love it. Not only does it capture the beauty of the DSP, it makes for a very quick card.
Tutorial
- Cut an 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ piece of white cardstock and score at 4 1/4″ (A2 size)
- Cut a white piece of cardstock at 4″ x 5 1/4″
- Place the piece that you just cut for the card front into an embossing folder and run it through the Cut & Emboss machine
- Adhere the embossed piece of cardstock to the mat
- Cut DSP at 3 1/4″ x 3 1/4″
- Cut the mat for the square piece of DSP at 3 1/2″ x 3 1/2″
- Glue the DSP onto the mat
- Glue the 3 1/4″ x 3 1/4″ piece of designer series paper onto the mat
- Cut a piece of ribbon and tie it around the designer series paper
- Adhere the matted piece to the card front with dimensionals
- Heat emboss a sentiment onto 2 3/4″ x 3/4″ piece of cardstock
- Adhere to card front.
As always, enjoy your paper crafting and please share your projects with me. I enjoy seeing what other creative minds come up with and am frequently inspired by them.
Happy Stampin’, Beth
