I have been on a mission recently trying to use more Designer Series Paper. Like many of my friends I buy the dsp, love it, stroke it but struggle to use it………. So here is a card I came up with using dsp from the See A Silhouette pack.
To recreate the stormy sea card you will need;
Night of Navy card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Whisper White 5⅝” by 3⅞” – rounded upper right corner
See A Silhouette dsp 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper right corner
Whisper White 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper right corner for the inside
Scrap Whisper White
The lighthouse from the Sailing Home stamp set was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto scrap Whisper White cardstock. The lighthouse image was then die cut using the Smooth Sailing dies.

I used the following Blends Markers to colour in the image – Light Smoky Slate, light Balmy Blue and light So Saffron.

The sentiment from the Colorful Seasons stamp set was stamped in Versamark ink onto the piece of designer series paper, covered with white embossing powder which was heat set using my Heat Tool – I did remember to use my embossing budding before I stamped – go me!

The DSP was glued to the larger Whisper White panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. This panel was then added to the front of the Night of Navy card front using the same adhesive.

I added the lighthouse to the card front on Dimensionals.

The lighthouse was stamped onto the second panel of Whisper White and glued to the inside of the card. The same image was stamped onto the envelope.
I love the stormy look that the dsp gives to this card. I hope you like it.
