Stampin’ Up!’s Hues of Happiness designer series paper (DSP)<\/strong> is beyond gorgeous.\u00a0 I made this bouquet easel card with one of the less used pieces of DSP that I thought was extra pretty with its yellow and black centers.<\/p>\n

\"\". \u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

I started my fussy cutting focusing on those three little flowers on the right that I wanted to hang over the pot.\u00a0 The fresh freesia flower you see on the left was a separate fussy cut that I added so that a flower wasn’t hanging over too far on the pot where I wanted a couple leaves (fussy cut).\u00a0 The card itself is a tri-layer fold that I saw Jan B. make at janbcards.com.\u00a0 She was casing a lovely card from a Japanese demonstrator and translating the directions from Japanese to English.\u00a0 What a challenge!\u00a0 Thank you, Jan.\u00a0 From there I changed up the dsp, the embossing folder and altered the cuts a bit to come up with this Hues of Happiness Easel Card.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The bottom flap folds out to give you a great place for a message!<\/p>\n

Remember- don’t toss those edge pieces of your DSP!\u00a0 You can add them to the inside like in the picture above!<\/p>\n

I started a bouquet card with cutting out the flowers in the Hues of Happiness <\/strong>DSP with the Blossoming Happiness Dies\u00a0<\/strong>but it just lacked something and then I realized the piece of DSP I thought was much too busy was actually perfect.\u00a0 However, I did save the cutouts and used them on the back of the bouquet:<\/p>\n

\"\"\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a> I think its the yellow in the DSP that made you prefer it over the other.<\/p>\n

Maybe so, Sal, it definitely is eye appealing with yellow centers and little yellow flowers and added greenery which always enhances flowers.\u00a0 What a great job the Stampin’ Up! artists did in designing this paper!<\/p>\n
