Hello Everyone!
Thank you for peeking in Today!
Today’s Card is for a Sketch Challenge for
Hand Stamped Sentiments #289
Here is the Challenge!
Here is my Card!
I really like this DSP!
You are going to see this DSP used…I ordered a second pack!!!
There is a wide variety of color in this DSP!
It lists colors we know AND quite a few of the NEW Colors too!
Here is the list of Colors: New Colors in bold print!
Basic Black, Blackberry Bliss, Crumb Cake, Grapefruit Grove, Mint Macaron,
Mossy Meadow, Old Olive, Pear Pizzazz, Petal Pink, Rich Razzleberry, So Saffron,
Tranquil Tide, and Whisper White.
Here are a couple of pictures of the Specialty DSP and the matching cardstock!
When I get the package of DSP, I cut it down to 4″ x 6″. I bought the photo storage
plastic storage box from Michael’s. All the different DSP, I cut go into the smaller
container, and then, that container goes into the larger container that holds 16 of
those 4″ x 6″ boxes! Save the coupon and use it, or wait till the storage sale, which
seems to happen a lot! I save a few retired DSP and keep them in the container too!
I also cut a piece of the coordinating cardstock that matches, and I tape them together
and add them to the DSP storage box. Then straight away, I can see the colors and the
cardstock together and it makes it easy to put together!
Here is the inside of my Card!
I kept it REAL simple!

Here is the Card, once again!
This DSP has so many Color Combinations!
I like that you can mix and match the DSP and the Cardstock Colors!
For the Card, I used 3 different Cardstock Colors for mats on the front!
And it Works!
Tomorrow’s Card is another mix of these beautiful DSP’s!
Until the next Post…Blessings and Color to you ALL!
