Stampin' Up! He's The Man Card for the Happy Inkin' Thursday Blog Hop

Hi stampers, today for our hop we have a DSP challenge. My card is using the He’s the Man DSP from the annual catalog and this card has NO ink or stamping! (But I did sneak in a bow, because this is a “Kristi” card after all, and don’t all my cards have bows? lol) Using the scrappy strip technique was a fun way to use lots of DSP and make a quick card too. Please stop by our other team members blogs to see what they created using DSP

The Theme:

Stampin’ Up! He’s the Man:

The Recipe:

Card base: Early Espresso 5-1/2 x 8-1/2, scored at 4-1/4

Mat: Sahara Sand 5-1/4 x 4

Scrappy Strip base: Sahara Sand 5-1/8 x 3-7/8

Scrappy Strips: He’s the Man DSP 5 x varied widths cut at a diagonal

Scallop mat: Early Espresso Die cut with the Layering Circle Dies

Circle: Basic White die cut with Stylish Shape Die

The Details:

Cut a variety of diagonal strips from the He’s the Man DSP
Put several stipes of Stampin Seal Adhesive onto the front of the 3-7/8 x 5-1/8 Sahara Sand scrappy strip base
Adhere your pieces of DSP to the base starting at the left have side and working across the card, butting the pieces of paper together
Trim all the overhanging pieces of DSP off the scrappy strip base

Putting the Card Together:

Mount the scrappy strip layer to the Sahara Sand mat with Stampin Seal
Adhere this layer to the card front with Dimensional
Mount the Basic White circle to the Early Espresso scallop mat
Attache the matted circle to the front of the card with Dimensionals
Adhere the sentiment and bus from the “He’s the Man DSP embellishment pack (it comes with the DSP) to the circle with Dimensionals

Finishing Touches:

Add a Crumb Cake Bakers Twine bow to the left of the sentiment
Add a few Rustic Metallic dots to the front of the card and you are done

Another Variation:

I had so much fun making this card I had to make a few more. Here is just one more of the many cards I made with the scrappy strip technique using other papers from the He’s the Man DSP paper pack
