Inside Out...More Framed Ideas

Here's another reason to love the Stitched Rectangles Framelits. Everyone loves Stampin' Up!'s  designer series paper. It coordinates with other products and it's double sided, which means double the fun! The first card is lovely isn't it? When you open it, there's a fun surprise inside. A splash of color from the other side of the DSP.

If you love the first card, the stamp set, framelits and DSP are going to retire on June 3, so grab it while you can!

To make this type of inside out card you simply:
  •  use a framelit to cut out a rectangle from the card front
  • attach a piece of  DSP 4 x 5-1/4 inches to the front, covering the 'hole'
  • stamp the retangle you cut out from the base and attach it to the DSP for a lovely card front
  • Open the card and you see the other side of the DSP

Double Easel Card

Here is another double easel card. The tutorial for this type card is in this post. 


  • On watercolor paper use an Aqua Painter with Petal Pink and Powder Pink inks to create a wash for the background.
  • Cut the framelit from Stitched Labels from watercolor paper, then use the same procedure to wash color on it too.
  • Stamp the flowers in Flirty Flamingo Ink and then use a Sponge Dauber in Mango Melody to the center of each flower.
  • For the larger leaf, use the same technique with Lemon Lime Twist and Shaded Spruce inks for shading.
  • Cut two stamped palm fronds and cut one from Call Me Clover cardstock.
  • Use the seed stamp from the set with Petal Pink Ink in the background. Then layer all the pieces, use dimensionals for the flowers.
  • Stamp thank you in Memento Tuxedo Black, then fussy cut.
  • Finish it with some glitter enamel dots.
