Welcome to the Parade of Papers Blog Hop!



Welcome to Stampin' Addicts first ever blog hop! Each stop along our Parade of Papers tour features projects made with Stampin' Up's Designer Series Paper created by some talented Stampin' Up demonstrators. Throughout the month of May buy three packs of Designer Series paper (including our Specialty Designer Series paper) or 12" x 12" textured card stock and get one FREE! We want to celebrate with you by sharing many wonderful ideas with you showcasing all of the designer series paper Stampin' Up! has to offer.

Welcome & I hope you enjoy what I have made for you featuring our Walk in the Park Designer Series Paper!

Thanks So Much Card
4 1/4" x 5 1/2"
Stamps: Pocket Silhouettes
Paper: Walk in the Park DSP, So Saffron, Baja Breeze, Cameo Coral
Ink: So Saffron, Baja Breeze, Cameo Coral
Accessories: Baja Breeze Double Stitched Ribbon, Styled Silver Hodgepodge Hardware, 1 1/4 and 1 3/8 Square Punches, Stampin' Dimensionals, SNAIL Adhesive


This is a composition book that I picked up at the dollar store. My DD likes when I alter them for her to give as part of birthday party gifts. The Whisper White Satin Ribbon is used as a bookmark.
Composition Book
Stamps: none
Paper: Walk in the Park DSP, Baja Breeze Textured Cardstock
Ink: none
Accessories: Big Shot, Beautiful Butterflies Bigz Die (SU! exclusive), Whisper White Taffeta Ribbon, 2-way Glue Pen, Dazzling Diamonds Glitter, Anywhere Glue Sticks, Sticky Strip, Whisper white Satin Ribbon, Filigree Brads, Scallop Edge Punch, Styled Silver Hodgepodge Hardware, Chateau Bella Rub-Ons
But that's not all - check it out! When you are done using your DSP, don't throw out the cardboard backing. I used it with the Butterflies Die to give a little more lift to the wings - it's just covered in DSP! Plus, don't recycle those strips of cardstock you end up with after using the scallop edge punch - I used them as the stripes on the right.


Is this not THE most adorable little box? I must give credit to Kerin Sylvester, from Stamps, Paper, Glitter!, for the design. I could not wait to try it out - it is perfect for all sorts of little gifts, and it really was quite easy to make.
