Everyday Greetings

Do you have Designer Series Papers that you want to use up?  Here's a quick and easy way to use it and make three cards at once. (Plus-DSP in the Annual Catalog is 15% off through my 8/31).  This idea came from Mary Knabe--she has a great "how to" video that is easy to follow. Another of my "Must Haves" is the Everyday Greetings set---add lots of variety to adding your sentiment to card.

Begin with your card base (Old Olive) 8-1/2 x 5-1/2, scored at 4-1/4. 
Layer 4 x 5-1/2 (white) on to card base; Use 3 different DSP patterns cut to 
4-3/4 x 3-1/2; stack all three DSP sheets tightly together; on the right side of stack, make a mark at 1" and 2-1/2"; rotate stack 180 degrees and mark right side again at 1" and 2-1/2"; line up top marks from each side on paper cutter and cut; do the same with the bottom marks.  You now have 3 stacks of 3; take a different pattern from each stack and adhere (use glue) to a 4-3/4 x 3-1/2 piece of cardstock (I used white);  all the edges should like up perfectly.  Adhere to card; Stamp sentiment (Everyday Greetings-Old Olive) onto white scrap and trim; pop up with Dimensionals; Die cut shape for front of card (Graceful Greenery Vellum); adhere to card.
