Island Oasis DSP

Christmas Pressies…

Published on December 12, 2010June 9, 2014 by Vicky WrightLeave a comment

I’ve been asked to make 12 Post-It Notes for small Christmas Gifts. I wanted to keep them simple & not have too much on the front. With being in your bag all the time, they tend to get knocked around a lot, so keeping them simple suited the purpose.

I’ve kept with the basic Post-It Notes Holder, as I don’t think you can beat a classic. It is so easy to make.

Cut a piece of cardstock 6 3/4″ x 3 1/4″

Score at 3 1/2″ & 4″

Embellish as desire

In this case, I printed all the names on the pc.

How easy is that?

Supplies –

Stamp Sets – Tropical Party, Friends 24-7, Growing Green

Ink – Rose Red, Regal Rose, Not Quiet Navy, Pacific Point, Chocolate Chip

Cardstock – Very Vanilla, Whisper White, Pumpkin Pie, Garden Green, Pacific Point, Rich Razzleberry, Tempting Turquoise, Crumb Cake

Accessories – Multipurpose Lique Glue, Watercolour Pencils, SU Pastels, Grosgrain Ribbon – Pumpkin Pie, Chocolate Chip, Rich Razzleberry, Whisper White, Not Quite Navy

Until next time, Enjoy!

I made this card a couple of weeks ago & suddenly realised I hadn’t posted it.

I’ve done a bit of a different fold for this card. Still using your standard size card, I folded the top half of the card in half again.

I’ve used the “Island Oasis” DSP from the latest Mini-Catalogue & adhered DSP down the RHS, while ashering the opposite side of the DSP down the LHS. All SU® DSP is double-sided, which means you receive twice as much DSP.

Using Whisper White on Rose Red Cardstock, I adhered it to the top half of the folded back section of the card.

I then stamped the images in Old Olive onto the Whisper White. Using scraps of Whisper White, I stamped the flower in Rose Red, while the coconut was stamped in Chocolate Chip. The umbrella was coloured in using my Watercolour Pencils.

I cut both the flower & coconut out & using Stampin’ Dimensionals, adhered to the card. I then stamped the greeting in Rose Red.

Supplies –
Stamp Set – Tropical Party, Short & Sweet
Ink – Chocolate Chip, Old Olive, Rose Red
Cardstock – Whisper White, Rose Red, Tempting Turquoise
DSP – Island Oasis*
Accessories – Snail Glue, Stampin’ Dimensional, Watercolour Pencils

* Summer Mini-Catalogue

If any of the instructions do not make sense, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Until next time, Enjoy!

The following cards have been created using products from the new Mini-Catalogue, so sit back, relax & enjoy!

Using the Scallop Square punch, I punched squares in Tempting Turquoise, Pumpkin Pie and Rose Red. I applied Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back so that they would sit up away from the DSP – Island Oasis. This way they are not lost in the background.

I stamped Whisper White cardstock with the leaf, using Old Olive. I punched these out using the 1 1/4″ square punch and adhered to the Scallop Square punch.

For the flower, I stamped the image in Pumpkin Pie, Rose Red, Tempting Turquoise & cut out using SU® Paper Snips. I then adhered to them to the corner of the squares.

Supplies –

Stamp Set – Heard from the Heart, Tropical Party*

Ink – Rose Red, Pumpkin Pie, Tempting Turquoise, Old Olive

Cardstock – Whisper White, Rose Red, Tempting Turquoise, Punpkin Pie

DSP – Island Oasis*

Punches – Scallop Square Extra Large, 1 1/4″ Square Large

Crikey! My 2nd posting in one day – wonders will never cease. I found this great sketch at Techno Stamper and just had to have a go, although there wasn’t much time to get it done.

This card also showcases a stamp set from the new Mini Catalgue which begins Wednesday, 1st December. Again, there are heaps of great new stamp sets and accessories and again, I want them ALL!
