Something Saturday - DSP & Blends

 Hi There Creators

Today I thought I'd show off an idea that Claire our Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Development Manager showed us in a workshop the other day, I took it a bit further in one of my cards, let me know which card is your favourite!

If you'd like to see all the goodies I used on these cards click here:  DSP & Blends Turtles Cards

Here are the cards I ended up creating The first 2 I've just used the blends to go round each of the images on the designer paper, I really love the way the images get highlighted from it, almost a "stained glass effect"

This first card I also used the blend on the white card base under the Designer Paper to give a border

This second card I used the Blend around the edge of the Designer paper to draw a line  (I did use a ruler to do this!) again to create a border.

Then this last one I've gone round the edges again with the darker Pool Party blend, but then blended in the lighter one in all the gaps. I actually did go back around with the darker colour again at the end, and also used a ruler to draw the line around the edges of both the base card and the Designer Paper, I'm quite happy with the result

In case you missed the video and would like to see it here it is:

I hope this inspires you to have a go too

God Bless love
