STAMPIN' UP! - Twitterpated designer paper (Part 1)

Last week I mentioned to some friends that I really need to go back to some of the partial packages of designer paper that I have from Stampin' Up! and get them used up.  SU seems to be coming out with more such beautiful papers faster than I can use them up!  Some of the papers are designs that I have been hoarding.....hating to cut into them.  Other are papers that I'm not quite sure what to do with them although I may find some ideas on Pinterest.

Here are half of the cards that I made over the weekend using up one of the patterns from the long retired Twitterpated paper pack.  The cards will appear to be from a One Sheet Wonder format, but they really weren't and I'm not sure that they all came from a single sheet.

#1

The color in the designer paper is Island Indigo.  I couldn't find any in my paper supplies so I used Not Quite Navy.  It's OK but I wasn't real happy with it.

#2

One more card using the Night of Navy.

#3

I didn't give up.  I went back through some of the card stock that had multiple colors and discovered two full sheets of it and a couple smaller pieces in the 2011-2013 In Color package.  The rest of the cards for today and tomorrow made me much happier.

#4

Instead of a vertical card, I turned this one into a horizontal format.  The butterflies were die cut from a set of Spellbinders butterfly dies.

#5

My least favorite of the cards.  I need to do something with the white areas on the left and right side.  Maybe a couple of small butterflies would fill in the emptiness.

#6

Tomorrow I will show you the other six that I made with this same designer paper.  If only this had made a dent in the sheets I need to use!  I'll keep trying and have two more pieces of designer paper on my craft table to do some more.  They'll probably all look a lot like these so I won't be posting all of them but maybe just a card or two with the different dp designs.

Thank you for coming by today!
