No finished cards today.....I am tired!  Instead I am going to show you my process for making multiple cards.  Look at the back of your Designer paper pack and pick at least 3 card base colors.  I chose 4 colors Old Olive, Soft Seafoam, Berry Burst and Peaceful Pine.  

Score and cut the cardstock.  Mix up the cards, some Landscape, some Portrait.  Consider the orientation of the Designer paper.  I used 3 Strips of 4X12 paper and mixed and matched the patterns on these 7 cards! 

Old Olive card base and the Golden Glow flowers give this a very Earthy feel.  Try to use a Sentiment that does NOT cover all this BEAUTY!  Designer paper is 5 1/4X 4.

Soft Seafoam card base with the same Paper pattern above 4X4.  The leftover scrap 2 3/4 is big enough to use on another card or even 2!

Soft Seafoam card base with a Different 4X4 pattern and the same scrap as the above card.  

This Landscape card is on Peaceful Pine card stock.  Notice how it pulls the color of the background foliage.  Paper is 5 1/4 X 4.  

Same pattern as above 4X4 on Peaceful Pine cardstock.  The Bright Berry Burst pattern is the reverse side of the pattern below.  The little Flowers under the Butterfly are Berry Burst!  I'll cover up that glimpse of Golden Glow in the corner when I finish this card.

Berry Burst card stock with a different  back side of another pattern.  And below the 3 leftover scraps on Berry Burst card stock.  This is how I prepare and then I finish then at another time.  No paper scraps to lose I have 1 Old Olive card base left over.  So 8 cards out of 4 sheets of cardstock and 1 sheet of Designer paper will decorate 7 cards!  I hope you find this helpful and inspiring!  You CAN make very different cards with the same pack of Designer paper for ALL different Occasions!

These cards will be finished and on the Rack at Independence Uptown Market this Saturday 8-1pm

The Designer paper colors listed showed Lost Lagoon and there it is in the leaves of this pattern.  Very Subtle until you add the card base and it POPS!  I also used some of the NEW Gingham paper to accent.  A scrap of ribbon in a scrap pile.  Such a Happy card!

Same Paper Patterns on a Calypso Coral card base.  I flipped the Gingham to the smaller check and another ribbon scrap.  

Back to Lost Lagoon and the reverse side as an accent with another Pattern from Brushed Beauty.  This card gives me Monet vibes!

Petal Pink card base with the same paper, this is such a versatile pack of paper!  And finally another back side of this Petal Pink brushed design on Calypso Coral.  I used a row from the Gingham to anchor the sentiment.   Sweet Words and Labels Dies and the Flowers from the Paper Pumpkin add on are used on these cards, just like yesterday!
