Hi Friends! Have you seen the new “Perennial Lavender” Designer Series Paper? It is absolutely beautiful. It’s easy to make a quick card when you’ve got patterned paper like this doing all the work for you! All you need with this DSP is a sentiment!
Of course, I did jazz this card up a bit with the Cane Weave embossing folder and a few embellishments. This card design is ideal for mass producing or even just to use up leftover strips of Designer Series Paper!

Your measurements on the DSP are not working for me. Are you sure they are correct?
Tina Zinck says
You may need to trim the dsp strips a bit.
