Tutorial for quick Gold DSP birthday card

August 8, 2022

Today’s tutorial is for a quick Gold DSP birthday card. I matched the gold patterns of DSP and have strips ready for a second card.

The Gold and Silver DSP is free with a £45 purchase during Sale-a-bration.

Each week over on my Facebook page (please pop over and Like or Follow) I choose a product pick of the week to feature. This week, it’s the Gold and Silver DSP. I’ll have a selection of tutorials for you throughout the week, that share different ideas for using these beautiful metallic papers.

In the tutorial below, I take you step by step through creating the quick Gold DSP birthday card. I also have a supply list for purchasing anything you don’t already own (the order code for the Gold and Silver DSP is 159941).

Start with an A6 portrait card of Starry Sky. Cut a 3-7/8″ x 5-1/2″ card front layer of Orchid Oasis card. Cut three strips of 1-1/8″ x 5-1/4″ Gold and Silver DSP, mixing and matching metals or patterns. Adhere the two outer strips to the Orchid Oasis layer, keeping the top, bottom and side margins even. Adhere the remaining strip centrally between the other two.

Cut two skinny strips of 3/4″ x 5-1/4″ Orchid Oasis card. Adhere over the gaps between the DSP and then adhere the card front layer direct to the card front. Using Orchid Oasis ink, stamp a sentiment from the Peaceful Moments stamp set onto a scrap of Basic White card. Punch out as a plain oval using the Double Oval punch. Punch a scalloped oval from a scrap of Starry Sky card. Adhere the two ovals direct and pop up on the card front with dimensionals.

Here’s a short video showing how this quick card comes together. Please subscribe to my Youtube channel to see my quick cards and quick tips each week.
