More cards using my stash

My efforts to use up this package of Rebecca Designer Series Paper from 2006 continue. It's amazing how difficult it can be to use up 12x12 pieces of paper when you are making cards. For today's trio, I used some retired stamps and some current stamps as well. To match the paper, I used ink and cardstock in Regal Rose (retired), Close to Cocoa (retired), Chocolate Chip (retired), and Sahara Sand (NOT retired!). 

While many of these products are retired, Stampin' Up! offers a great selection of current stamps, papers, and accessories that could be used instead of these images. I hope that if you're in the market for new stamping supplies, you will check out my Stampin' Up! store.

This sweet hello card was quick and easy to make. The card base is Close to Cocoa cardstock cut 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" and folded in half.

For the card front, I used another piece of Close to Cocoa cut 5 5/16" x 4 1/16" and embossed with the Subtle 3D embossing folder. I added three strips of the designer series paper cut to different lengths and with one end cut at an angle. I stamped the greeting from the To a Wild Rose stamp set on a piece of Chocolate Chip cardstock with Versamark ink and embossed it with Whisper White embossing powder.


To frame the sentiment, I used a piece of Hodgepodge Hardware. These awesome kits were also available around the same time period as the Rebecca DSP. They contained a number of brads, metal frames, buckles, and fancy paper clips. Each tin contained about 200 pieces. I still have two of the kits. 

I attached the metal frame for the sentiment using a piece of pink grosgrain ribbon from the same period. This roll is almost gone! I'm hoping to finish it sometime this week. Maybe then I'll feel like I'm start to make a dent in my stash. Who are we kidding? It will take a lot more than one finished roll of ribbon.

This card, perfect to send to someone sheltering at home, uses the Witty-Cisms stamp set. I stamped the image with Tuxedo Black Memento ink and then colored it with Crumb Cake, Soft Suede, and Flirty Flamingo Stampin' Blends.

Once again, the card base is Close to Cocoa, I adhered a strip of DSP about 2 1/2" wide along the side and another piece about 1" wide along the bottom. I adhered the image to a piece of Close to Cocoa cardstock and then used dimensionals to attach it to a third piece of DSP. 

Along the bottom, I added 3 eyelets. Remember those? I still have tons of them, so watch for them to show up on a number of projects this month!

My last card uses an image from the retired Simply Said stamp set from 2006. I stamped it in Jet Black Stazon ink and then colored it with an Aqua Painter and ink from my Regal Rose and Mint Macaron ink pads. I layered the image on a piece of Close to Cocoa cardstock and then on a piece of Rebecca DSP cut using the Stitched So Sweetly dies from the current January-June mini catalog.

The greeting comes from the Timeless Tulips stamp set found in the current January-June mini catalog. I stamped it in Close to Cocoa ink on a separate piece of Whisper White cardstock. I attached it with another piece from a Hodgepodge Hardware kit. 

The card base is Sahara Sand cardstock with a strip of Rebecca DSP added to one side and another piece of the pink Grosgrain ribbon attached along the edge. I added the layered image on top.
