One Sheet Wonder











Lots of cards to look at today and all from one sheet of A4 cardstock (well the patterned bits that is!) I have never tried the one-sheet wonder before but decided to have a go and this is what I've done with it. There are lots of templates and ideas out there in cyber-land for the one-sheet wonders and I used a mixture of some of these and a bit of my own. The top-left photo shows my sheet of A4 after being stamped using Circle Circus in Rose Red, Not Quite Navy and River Rock before being chopped up to make the cards. I think Circle Circus is a really good set for this as it contains a lot of sizes and some solid stamps and some which are ideal for 'filling in', but any stamp set can be used and any colours. If you don't want to be bothered stamping a sheet, or simply wish to save time, SU have some fabulous DSP's which could be used instead. It is a great way to make several cards at once as you pick a colour scheme and have your ribbons, inks & cardstock all to hand and, an added bonus, also saves time on cleaning those stamps! I used a variety of sentiments and punches but you can use anything that takes your fancy.
Well it's Friday again so, whatever your plans for the weekend I hope you have a good one. I'm sure I will be back tomorrow for the Less is More challenge so do pop back sometime x
