I've been busy in my craft room today.  One of my goals is to participate in a few challenges each week.  I was able to make 3 different cards for 3 different challenges.  I feel pretty good. 

This first card is for the Kaleidoscope Stampers group that I belong to. The challenge was to use designer series paper because of the designer series paper promotion.  I didn't use one of the designer series paper packages that are part of the promotion.  


I used the following for my card:

Handsomely suited stamp set
Simply Elegant specialty designer series paper
Elegantly Tag punch
Cardstock: Basic Gray, basic white
Ink: Basic gray
Metallic Mesh ribbon

I love the designer series paper.  I have a hard time choosing which side of the sheet I love more.  

There is many ways to use it. 

1. You can use a full sheet of 12 X 12 paper, score it and make a notecard holder.  Makes a great gift.  

2. You can love it, chop it. This is a great way to easily grab a piece of designer series paper and  make a card.  I do this with some of my designer series paper so I can make a quick card.

3. You can use as a scrapbook page.  I don't do scrapbooking but I know some people that do and love the designer series paper.
