Good Wednesday morning stamping friends. We’re already halfway through the week and on our way to the weekend. I know this was a short week for some because of the weather. It’s a normal week for me, even though we got a lot of snow, the store was open Monday morning, just a couple hours later than normal to give everyone time to get in.

Today’s card I let the DSP do all the work for me. I love the Stampin’ Up! DSP, it gives me colors to use and makes card fronts all by itself. I did do a little bit of work on my card, but this adorable paper just made my whole card for me.  If you’d like to see a quick video on how I made this card, Click Here to go to my Instagram Reels. Here’s my card for today.

I used the adorable Cute as a Bug Designer Series Paper along with the Stampin’ Up! Layer’s of Beauty Stamp Set, Everyday Arches Dies, Stampin’ Up! Extraordinary Flora Stamp Set and Stampin’ Up! Sweet Bugs Stamp Set for my card today.

Adhere a panel of Cute as a Bug DSP to a Cajun Craze mat. Go over the wings of the bugs on the paper with a Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush.

Stamp the sentiment from Layers of Beauty stamp set in Versamark Ink on a panel of Cajun Craze. Sprinkle the sentiment with White Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool. Cut the sentiment out using the Everyday Arches Dies. Adhere the sentiment to the card front and trim off the excess with snips.

Adhere the layered card front to an Old Olive card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Add a Rhinestone Basic Jewel to the card front.

Stamp the sentiment from the Extraordinary Flora stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a panel of Basic White. Adhere 2 strips of Cute as a Bug DSP to the sides of the panel. Stamp the toadstool image from the Sweet Bugs stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the bottom of the panel. Color the images using Cajun Craze and Lemon Lolly Stampin’ Blends Markers. Adhere the Basic White panel to a Cajun Craze mat then to the inside of the Old Olive card base.

Decorate a Basic White Medium Envelope to finish your card. Stamp the toadstool image from the Sweet Bugs stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front. Color the images with Cajun Craze and Lemon Lolly Stampin’ Blends Markers. Adhere a panel of Cute as a Bug DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
