Designer Paper Swatches

DSP rings I used my set of the Designer Paper Split (that I offered to my downline) to make these 3×3 sampler keyrings.  I added the coordinating ribbons to each one and I will take them to all my workshops and classes in a little basket. It certainly helps to let customers see each paper in person!

AND NO… Sorry.. I'm not selling these… they took well over 2 days of all my spare to make!

If you would like to purchase a sampling of DSP, please see Corinne's blog HERE!  She is offering them! SCROLL DOWN in that post below the photo of the project to see the offer.

  1. Patty – these are fabulous! Are they just the papers, or are they mounted on something? I saw some others that were on coasters to make them sturdier, but I realized it would take twice the paper to show both sides then. Love the idea of “labeling” them with the tag punch & adding the coordinating ribbon. Thanks, as always, for sharing.

  3. WOW, Patty, that is a lot of work!! I am so crazy about all of our new papers. SU! keeps outdoing themselves don’t they? You must be so pumped to be on the Advisory Board with all of these fantastic new products coming out and I’m sure more to come!!
    How do you do your paper splits? Do you give each girl one sheet of each paper? So you would need an even number of girls to do this? Have you ever done this with customers?

  4. This is such a brilliant idea, Patty! Would you recommend setting eyelets in the holes to make them more sturdy for frequent use, or would that be more work than it’s worth? I think I may have to do this for my papers as well, I know I personally like to look at and touch the papers before I buy them.

  5. You have such great ideas! I just wanted to say hi! I just started blog hopping about 6 months ago when I realized people who stamped have great blogs out there. I always visit yours, it’s one of my favorites. I have been an SU! demo for 5 years now and am in Sandy’s 5th level. I just started subscribing to her Udderly Awesome group and what great news did I find out!? I am in the same SU! family as my favorite blog hostess! I can’t tell you how much it excited me! Thanks for sharing all your great ideas. I know it takes extra time to post things in blog world but I LOVE to visit!

  7. What an awesome idea, I love it. I think I will do it for my customers.
    Did you mount them on something to make them sturdier?
    Thanks for the inspiration,

  8. Patty…are these mounted on something or just the DSP…how about the hole for the ring, is that reinforced any way? Great idea, my customers are always wondering what the paper really looks like.

  9. Hi Patty,
    This is a great idea. The papers always look so much better in person that in the catalog.
    A couple of people asked this but I didn’t see the answer… did you mount each paper on chipboard?
