Happy Tuesday!!! That means that I have a fabulous technique to share with you today! Tis the Season to be jolly so we are making quick and simple cards using the One Sheet Wonder Technique!!! I got 13 cards from one sheet of 12″ x 12″ Home for Christmas Designer Series Paper!
All adorable, all quickly created, all using the same greeting!!! I honestly whipped these up in an hour or so! I didn’t actually time myself but it was really quick! Let’s get started!
Here is the template. For this set of cards, I cut that top 2″ x 12″ strip into 2 pieces of 2″ x 5-1/2″ to really use up the paper and get more cards out of it! You can also leave in all of those little slivers and create the same style and use up even more of the sheet! I used the same greeting for all of these cards. It is from the Peaceful Pines Stamp Set and punched out with the Decorative Label Punch! I stamped it onto Very Vanilla and layered it with similar colors that coordinate with the paper – Real Red, Mossy Meadow, Mint Macaron, Pool Party, and Very Vanilla!
This is the bottom right hand corner piece. I ripped it diagonally and placed it on the corners of a Real Red and Very Vanilla card base!
These cards use the 3-1/2″ x 4-1/2″ piece and 2-1/4″ x 4-1/2″! I used both sides of the Designer Series Paper for these cards!
I really had a hard time deciding which side to use for all of these cards! Another tip is that you can use your scraps for the layering colors. You don’t need a full piece to layer behind it, instead you can use little strips of paper on either side!
I used the 2″ squares for the middle card and off set them with a 2″ Mossy Meadow square! I really like how it turned out!
Rather than cutting three 1-1/2″ squares, I just left it as a piece of 1-1/2″ x 4-1/4″ in the card laying down! I really went basic for this set because I needed to get these done quickly! That is all 13 cards!!! You can always mix it up and change the pieces as you see fit!
