Nigezza Creates: Craft Fair Idea: Narrow Note Cards & Box Using Dashing Along DSP

Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator

I am delighted you have joined me today for this project. You have until Saturday 30th September to get the Dashing Along DSP from Stampin' Up! absolutely FREE. This Designer Series Paper is Free with order of £200 or more, that is on top of the usual Stampin' Rewards you normally get. I have showcased the paper in a previous blog.

Click here for detials of the offer.

Today I am showing how the paper can be used for non Christmas Projects so you can see the versatility of the Paper. I love it :-)

I have made 4 notecards and a matching box (separate tutorial for the box) I think this would be great for craft fairs or make a lovely gift.

Narrow Note Cards Using Dashing Along DSP: Great For Craft Fairs Nigezza Creates

Measurements and Materials

Product List

Whisper White Narrow Note Cards & Envelopes

These are great little notecards that come in packs of 20
Note card size 6.4cm x 11.4cm
In inches - 2 1/2" x 4 1/2"
I used 4 for this project so you could make 5 boxes of little notecards from one pack, great for craft fairs or gifts.

Dashing Along Designer Series Paper

I used one strip - 12" x 2"
This little strip made all 4 cards so very economical on your paper :-)
Cut the strip into 4" x 2" sections
Cut one of these in half so you have 4" x 1" strips
Cut another at 1/2" so you have 4" x 1/2" and 4" x 1 1/2"
Cut the last one diagonally from corner to corner
You now have your sections to decorate the cards

Cherry Cobbler A4 Card Stock

Used for matting
I made the mats 1/8" wider and taller than the DSP so there was a very small border
I did not mat all the DSP, see pictures for guidance

Garden Green A4 Card Stock

Used for matting
I made the mats 1/8" wider and taller than the DSP so there was a very small border
I did not mat all the DSP, see pictures for guidance

Video Tutorial

I have had to speed up section because the camera kept changing how it was filming midway through, so it went randomly into slow motion. I have edited it so it makes sense, oh the joys of technology! lol!

Time for the close ups!

I do hope you enjoyed this project, I will be back with a tutorial for the box that the cards went into on Thursday. Until then ...

Happy Crafting!
