This week, my creative mojo was fueled by the Fruit Salad 6×6 Designer Series Paper. 🍓🍍 Let me tell you, this bright and playful paper had me buzzing with ideas and excited to dive into my projects. From a fun card makeover to a scrapbook layout bursting with fruity charm, this DSP has been the star of the show. Here’s a little recap of all the sweetness we created together.
🍓 A Fun Card Glow-Up
Earlier this week, I revisited a card design I’d posted on social media and decided to give it a glow-up. Sometimes, a design is just calling out for a little extra flair, don’t you think? I added a few layers, some dimension, and, of course, a sprinkle of sparkle—and the result was a card that’s as cheerful as a summer picnic. This card would be perfect for sending a little sunshine to someone’s mailbox!
🍍 A Sweet Scrapbook Layout
The highlight of my week was creating a scrapbook layout for the #CreativeChallengeSU. I’m so thrilled with how it turned out! Using the Fruit Salad DSP as the foundation, I layered in stamps, dies, and embellishments to create a layout that’s as sweet as a fresh fruit salad. Whether you’re documenting sunny summer memories, a family picnic, or just want to add a pop of vibrant color to your scrapbook, this layout is perfect for it all.
🌟 Inspiration from the January 2025 Creative Challenge
This layout was inspired by the January 2025 Creative Challenge from Stampin’ Up!, and it was the perfect way to jumpstart the project! Challenges like this are such a great way to stretch your creativity and try new things, and this month’s theme aligned perfectly with the playful vibe of the Fruit Salad DSP. It’s always exciting to see how a theme can spark fresh ideas, and I’m so happy with how everything came together.
