This set of cards features one sheet of the new Waterside Retreat Designer Series Paper, which will be available beginning May 5, 2026. When this single sheet of DSP is cut apart and combined with coordinating cardstock and some of the new die-cut sets, it creates eight beautiful cards.
The free tutorial is available below, and a limited number of pre-cut kits will be available in May for $20 plus postage (if needed). Please use the “Email Me” button in the menu bar above to reserve yours.
The products used to create these cards are listed in the tutorial. However, a clickable supply list is not available since the products will not be released until May 5, 2026.
More cards featuring the Waterside Retreat DSP will be shared over the next three weeks, culminating with the Zoom Card Class on May 22, 2026. For additional details about the Zoom Card Class, please see the advertisement below or visit the Class Calendar.
Waterside Retreat Tutorial
May Zoom Card Class
Date: May 22, 2026
Time: 7 pm
Class Fee: $22 plus shipping if needed (calculated when ready to ship)
RSVP by: May 1, 2026
Class Description:
This class will require a bit of fussy cutting, as two of the four designs include cutting out the life vest and paddle. The life vests come in a variety of colors, so the ones in your kit may differ from those shown in the photo. However, they will all coordinate beautifully and come from the same sheet of Designer Series Paper.
We will make a total of eight cards in this class:
- 2 Inside Box Cards (each featuring two life vests)
- 2 Green Plaid Cards
- Note: The sentiment on this card is a die cut and will be included in your kit.
- 2 Bicycle Cards
- Again, the sentiment is a die cut and will be included in your kit.
- 2 Pocket Cards (shown at the bottom of the picture)
- One blue card featuring floats
- One green card featuring fish
These designs make great birthday cards! I used one of the new “manly” stamp sets, which includes “bruh” along with other fun slang sentiments.
