I've seen a swatch chart that someone mentioned came from managers meeting. It contained 3x3 swatches of Designer Paper and it also had actual samples of coordinating ribbons and cardstock. Has anyone else seen this?

I saw one of these charts at one of my uplines' meetings and immediately came home and made one for each pack of DSP that I own. I find it to be immensely helpful when I'm designing cards to just pull out the charts and see what colors of cardstock and ribbon match the DSP, plus seeing each side of the DSP without flipping them back and forth. If you like, I can try scanning one and posting it...
To make mine, I cut the cardboard backing that comes in the DSP package to an 8 1/2" square. Then I cut two 2" squares from each piece of DSP (one for each side!) and mounted them all around the edges of the 8 1/2" square. Then used the Word Window punch to make coordinating pieces of cardstock, and tied little knots of coordinating ribbons - glued all that in the middle of the square. Typed a small description of the DSP - name, plus coordinating colors - on the computer and cut it out and put it in the middle as well.
Shoot - instead of waiting, I just went ahead and uploaded it! Here is the link:

Hmmm...I don't know why it would tell anyone they don't have permission to view it. If you go to the home page and look under "Most Recent Gallery Additions" and "view all of today's additions" - it's there...
I'm at work now but will be happy to email you, monniegirl, when I get home.
Janice, I couldn't see the chart either. I went to todays downloads an hour after you had posted the message that it was there, but I couldn't find it there. Nor was it in your gallery at the time. I'd love to see it.
Janice your example is awesome! THANK you for sharing!
Not sure why some of you can't see it but I am going to try to post Janice's sample here...
Hope this helps.
Hi--thanks for the download--she sure did an awesome job. Not too sure why they said I didn't have permission to view. So thanks--I need all the "hands on" that I can get.
This is it!!! Barb Mulkin shows a chart for each DSP on her blog (she mentioned she swapped with other demos to get a complete set). Take a look on her blog. I think she used 3" squares. I'd love to start a swap to make these. Do you think there would be interest?

not sure i understand your question melissa... do you mean all the files that are available on SCS? there must be thousands from all the helpful stampers
for some odd reason it's not opening for me. Could you please email me the list at [email protected]
Thanks
sometimes, you need to right click on the file, and use the "save as" function to save it to your desktop, then open it. try that to see if it works. i'm also emailing the pdf to you!
Thank you guys so much for this information. Does anyone know what colors are going to coordinate with the DP out of the Occasions Mini - Summer Picnic and Afternoon Tea?
Afternoon Tea coordinates with Chocolate Chip, Groovy Guava, Soft Sky and Wild Wasabi. Summer Picnic coordinates with Real Red, Bashful Blue, Old Olive and Pumpkin Pie.
