February Card Challenge, Day 6

I managed to get four more cards made today despite having to finish off yesterday's as well. Today's cards are from Nancy's Mystery Cards again, and I actually remembered to make both designs this time. The measurements and instructions are below. 

Today I used Texture Chic Specialty Designer Series Paper, He's the Man DSP and embellishments, and Day at the Farm DSP. I also used This Birthday Piggy Stamp Set and the Silly Goose Stamp Set. I've specified below each photo which bits I used.

Design 1 - Measurements

Basic White Thick Cardstock: 14.9 x 21 cm (half A4), score for card base

Designer Series Paper: 6.5 x 14.9 cm

Instructions

1. Using the DSP, cut two 1.5 x 14.9 cm strips leaving a piece measuring 3.5 x 14.9 cm.

2. Add one thin strip to the right side of your card base. It can be to the edge or not, as you prefer. My two cards have the strips in different positions. You can use either side of the DSP. I used just one side for Card 1, but used one different side for Card 2.

3. Take the widest piece and adhere it to the left side of the card, positioned to match the right side.

4. Take the last strip of DSP and place it somewhere between the other two on the card front, either in the middle or in any position that you like.

5. Stamp your sentiment and cut to size using your trimmer or a punch.

6. Stamp an image on a Basic White scrap, colour it and cut it out with Paper Snips or a punch.

7. Add the image and sentiment to your card using Dimensionals.

Coloured Cardstock: 10 x 14.4 cm; and 1 x 9.5 cm

DSP: 6.7 x 9.5 cm

Basic White Cardstock: 9.5 x 13.9 cm

Instructions

1. Adhere the 1 x 9.5 cm coloured cardstock under the RIGHT edge of the DSP leaving half of the width visible.

2. Add the DSP/cardstock strip to the far left side of the Basic White layer.

3. Stamp a sentiment towards the top of the Basic White layer, to the right of the DSP/coloured cardstock.

4. Stamp an image below the sentiment and colour, if needed.

5. Add the Basic White piece to the coloured cardstock layer.

6. Add all the layers to the card base with flat adhesive.

7. Add embellishments, if desired.

NOTE: I used die-cut pieces for Card 1 instead of stamping.


Thanks again, Nancy, for allowing me to use your cards. 

See you all tomorrow.

Happy crafting!
