For All Things One Sheet Wonder

Welcome!  I am so glad that you have stopped by today!  Did you see all of the fabulous ideas posted in the ICS blog hop last night?  I loved them all!

Last night I shared one card, from a set of nine that I made using a One Sheet Wonder.  I haven't done a one sheet wonder in so long!  I forgot how fun they can be!

Here is the set of the whole cards:

I love the way the set looks altogether.  It was so easy to whip these cards out, and this could easily be done with any stamp set or patterned paper you have lying around!  If you put these in a cute little package, they'd make a great gift too!

Here are the cards individually:

As you can see, most of the cards are pretty simple with very little embellishments.  Here's a photo of my sheet, before I cut it up for these cards.

I was able to, basically, make my own patterned paper.  For this, I used the leaf, acorns, and wheat stamp from the stamp set.  I was chose to do each stamp in two different colors.  I started with the leaf, because it was the biggest.  I stamp the leaf in Cherry Cobbler, and Tangelo Twist.  Next I did the wheat stamp in Baked Brown Sugar, and Hello Honey.  Last, I stamped the acorns in Cajun Craze, and Mossy Meadow.

For cutting up my sheet, to make the 9 cards, I used a template I found on Pinterest.  It was designed by Mae Collins.  You can see the template here. 

I hope you enjoy the cards, as much as I did making them!  

Thanks for stopping by!

One Sheet Wonder Cards

I am having so much fun working with OSW!!  Just in case you missed the last post, I was in a One Sheet Wonder swap in the VC Rocks group I belong to.  I received 10 fabulous pages of stamped images in return.  This first one I am working on was made by Diane Clark-Sutton.  I posted the first card last night, and today, so far, I have made four more.  I am halfway done with this sheet, and almost caught up on RAK challenges.  :)  I'm excited to work with the other sheets too... hopefully I'll get started on those tonight. Here is what I have so far.

OSW Card

Good evening everyone!  How are you all doing tonight?  I have missed you all, and this blog over the last week.  Believe me - I would much rather be here, playing with my paper.  In the last week, my son has shown me a lot of "I'm not a baby anymore."  From Friday to Sunday, he learned where babies come from, how to ride a bike without training wheels, and went to his first overnight camp - where he learned to shoot arrows and bb guns.  That is a little too much growing up at one time for this Momma.  The days before that were filled with preparations for said camp, and since I picked him up yesterday - I just can't stop myself from staring at him.  I can't believe how fast this is all happening.  Do any of you have a way of slowing down time?

Ok, on to the fun stuff.  A few weeks ago, I participated in a One Sheet Wonder Swap in the VC Rocks group.  I got back 10 fabulous sheets of cardstock.  I didn't really know very much about OSW's when I signed up for this swap, I actually had to look up directions on what to do.  I did my best, and I was satisfied with what I had done.  (Until the others came back... I don't think I filled mine in enough.)  I was so excited when the swap was returned with directions for cutting the sheets apart and making 10 cards out of it.

I decided that today was the day to start using those sheets.  I need lots of cards, I always need lots of cards. LOL  This is the first one I did.  The OSW was made by Diane Clark-Sutton.  I love the colors she chose!  I had no idea that I wanted this set, until this sheet came in the mail.  Now, I have to have it.
