Oh, this card today is a pretty one…not because I made it but because the Stampin’ UP! Painterly Pears Designer Series Paper is gorgeous! One of my friends, Steph Briggs, even represented it in her wardrobe the other day! I love it when I see Stampin’ UP! colors everywhere! Steff has a smile that brightens every room she enters:)

Now, I went with two other patterns with Secret Sea and Petal Pink in them on my Triple Z-fold card. My base is Mossy Meadow on both cards.

It is so EASY to make this card- I even made it so you can get 8 cards out of ONE sheet of DSP! Watch my video for the tip!

I love the beautiful colors in the DSP- I did use another pattern on the right side of this card- that is, I didn’t use the opposite side of the horizontal strips. I stamped the pear- pretty nice, huh? Well, the distinctive aspect of this stamp helped give it an artistic feel. And, this stamp is photopolymer AND is distinctive so not being red rubber was not an issue getting that distinktive look!

I love all the colors in the DSP- bright and dark that complement each other. On the next card, I die cut the pears out. You get 10 pears on each piece so that’s 11 with two sheets. And I even spliced together three pears from the edges:) I used the back of the horiaontal strips for the vertical strip on the right side. This is how you can get 8 cards from one sheet of DSP. I fussy cut the pink posies from the sheet that has all the big pears, stems and a smaller pair of pears.

Measurements: Card Base: 5-1/2″ x 6-3/4″ scored at 1-1/4″ and 2-1/2″ on the 6-3/4″ side, (3) 1-1/4″ x 6-3/4″ strips of CS scored at 1-1/4″ and 2-1/2″, (3) strips of DSP: 1″ x 4″ and (1) strip 1″ x 5-1/4″, Back White: 4″ x 5-1/4″, varying piece of CS for any shape focal point to put pears
