 Wow what a day I have had creating my own DSP with a beautiful stamp set that has been released from Stampin' Up! new August-December 2020 Mini Catalogue.

This set is an amazing set, I have had so much fun playing with it and making many different projects. But today I want to share with you the DSP that I have made.

I have used 3 different colour ways and this will show how different it looks. All gorgeous, and very simply to create.

My first set of cards are using Cherry Cobbler, Shaded Spruce, Crushed Curry and Whisper White. Added a little gold foil and small embellishments.

My next colours used are from the dsp that Stampin' Up! have co-ordinated with the Poinsettia Petals suite. Soft Suede, Old Olive, Garden Green, Bumblebee and Very Vanilla.

I have created a youtube video for you to watch and see how easy it is to create this DSP.

This is how I cut up the completed DSP, so I have included the sizes I used and how it looks from the under size. I used A4 Very Vanilla.

How I ruled it up.
