Your Choice Cards and a One-Sheet-Wonder

Have you ever needed a card, found one you liked but it didn't have the right sentiment? I know I run into this often so I decided to help solve this dilemma by creating a card set where you can choose your sentiment when you are ready to send the card.

I created these sets of cards recently during an event I did for National Cardmaking Day. The cards are made using a One-Sheet-Wonder technique I found on Pinterest. The technique uses a piece of 6"x6" paper to make 4 cards. Each card also has a 2" circle where the sentiment goes. I added a piece of double-sided adhesive on the back of the sentiment circle - all that is needed is to select the sentiment needed, peel off the adhesive cover and place it on the card and you are all set.

I created 6 different sets of these cards.

The card sets each come with 4 "Why Thank You", "Thinking of You" and "With Deepest Sympathy" sets of sentiments. The cards were made based off of this One Sheet Wonder Challenge diagram. You can find this diagram along with others here.

I created these using some paper from the retired True Love paper collection. I added some embossed cardstock to each card using the Floral Lace Embossing Folder and a little bling using the Sparkles.

The sentiments were stamped using M-sized stamp sets which fit perfectly in the 2" circles I cut from coordinating cardstock.

These cards along with others can be found in my shop - here.

I hope you like the cards. Thanks for stopping by!

Thanksgiving Cards and a card workshop

I just completed making my Thanksgiving cards for this year and had so much fun creating these I knew I wanted to share the results with you. I had started making these on National Card Making Day during my Zoom event using a 14 Card One-Sheet-Wonder technique I found on Pinterest. I cut the pattern pieces and started working on the card pieces during that event.

I knew when I started making these they would be Thanksgiving cards using more of the Bloom with Grace paper and embellished with stamped images from the With A Grateful Heart stamp set. I am so pleased with how these came out. 

I adapted the cutting guide I found on Pinterest to create the following guide for the piece of 12" x 12" Bloom with Grace patterned paper I started with.

Once I had the patterned pieces cut I worked with Espresso, Fern and French Vanilla cardstock to mat the pieces and create each of the cards.

I used the Woodgrain Embossing folder on a few of the card pieces as well as Espresso Ink and a waterbrush to create a splatter effect on some. 

The embellishments were done with stamped images from the With A Grateful Heart Stamp Set + Thin Cuts as well as Cricut cuts from the Close To my Heart Complete Creativity Cricut collection.

Woodland Friends Thank You cards

Here is the second set of cards I made during National Card Making Day last Saturday with my group. This set of 15 cards was so much fun and so easy to put together! They feature the Woodland Friends stamp set and thin cuts from Close To My Heart along with a retired paper collection called Florence.

The cards were made using a fantastic card making class from Susan Williams, another Close To My Heart consultant. We used 3 pieces of 12" x 12" double-sided patterned paper cut into 12 6" x 6" squares to make these 15 cards.  I had so much fun teaching my group this technique during my virtual National Cardmaking Day.

The Florence paper was so perfect to use with the adorable creatures I stamped from the Woodland Friends stamp set as embellishments to the cards. I used Intense Black Ink to stamp the images and then colored them in with the Triblend Markers.

I am so glad I can offer these virtual events. If you are interested in attending one of my upcoming virtual events, head on over to my Facebook page to follow me so you will get notifications of these events.
