Need ink? Do you ever have a cute stamp set but not the colors you need for the project you’re working on? Try DSP (Designer Series Paper)! Just cut out patterns found in the DSP to use in lieu of stamping. For today’s Make It Monday project, I used the “How Sweet It Is” DSP candy jar cut-outs to make a sweet and simple birthday card.
The How Sweet It Is suite of products is one of the products retiring soon. Be sure to check out the entire suite in my online store and add it to your paper crafting collection before it sells out. It’s perfect for birthdays and makes great accents for candy buffets!
With a few rhinestones and a silver lined bow, it adds just the right amount of sparkle to this fun card.
I kept the whimsical gummy bear pattern going inside the card.
