Artfully Composed Designer Series Paper
We have used the bright, happy colours in the DSP for our garden scene. The paper is bright and bold and a lush botanical theme to our project.
Invoke the feeling of paradise with the Artfully Composed 12″ x 12″ (30.5 x 30.5 cm) Designer Series Paper. One side of the printed designs includes a combination of hand-painted tropical plants and greenery with leaves that were cut out of paper and photographed for a unique layered look. The other side of the paper includes small print patterns like stripes, polka dots, and scripty writing. Cut paper down to card front size for backgrounds, strips, layers, or paper elements. For extra artistry, fussy-cut leaves to collage and layer!

DIMENSIONS
- Card Base: Petal Pink cardstock cut to standard card base 29.7 x 10.5 cm, scored at 14.85 and then cut at 3.5 cm (bottom piece) and 7.9 cm (middle piece).
- Layering Paper. Artfully Composed DSP 10 x 6 cm cut into two pieces each 10 x 3 cm. (then your patterns will match!), Basic White 10 x 7.4 cm (middle panel of card front) and Basic White 14.4 x 10 cm (inside of card).
Step by Step Directions
- Burnish card base along score line.
- Adhere DSP to each 3.5 cm panel. Set the bottom one aside and do not glue the back of the Petal Pink card base!
- Stamp the centre panel of Basic White measuring 10 x 7.4 cm. (I’ve included the finished view below). Here are the stamping directions: stamp greeting on the bottom of the panel in Calypso Coral ink, stamp the outline of the garden greenhouse in Evening Evergreen ink, stamp large leafy cluster in Mint Macaron, stamp the smaller leaf sprig twice in Just Jade and various flower shapes in Calypso Coral and Petal Pink. Can you see that one of the Calypso Coral flowers ‘fits’ inside the large leaf cluster?
- Stamp the card insert in the same manner, and adhere to card base. Here is an example for you.
- Now we will go back to your card front! Adhere the stamped centre piece of Basic White to the piece of Petal Pink Cardstock measuring 10.5 x 7.9 cm
- Using Tear & Tape, adhere strip of Flirty Flamingo Ribbon to top the the panel, ensuring that no adhesive tape extends below the ribbon line on the back of the panel. (or you’ll see it on the inside of the card). Here is the finished view to give you an idea of the positioning.
- Tape both the top and bottom of the panel. Remove the top tape. Do not remove the bottom tape at this stage!
- Position and adhere the top of the panel to the folded card base. My overlap is about 1.5 cm.
- Position the bottom panel on the card base. You might like to hold it in place with a couple of paper clips. Do not adhere it to the card base!
- Remove tape from the bottom of the panel, fold your card shut and adhere the bottom of the panel to the bottom of the positioned card front. Here a view of the inside of the card, when completed and folded out flat.
- Adhere tied bow to card front using Mini Glue Dots,
- Adhere adhesive backed Brushed Brass Butterflies.
