A 6" x 6" One Sheet Wonder

6/22/2020

I created these four cards using one sheet of Flowers for Every Season 6" x 6" Designer Series Paper. I used four different 2020-2022 In Colors for the card bases (Bumblebee, Misty Moonlight, Just Jade, and Magenta Madess) and the fifth color (Cinnamon Cider) for the contrasting color. Follow all the way to the bottom for a second set using the Forever Greenery DSP. So, on y go! Let's get stamping.

Here is the cutting diagram to complete the cards. What isn't shown, because I'd already completed the diagram when I figured it out, is that if there is a right way up to the piece of DSP that you choose, it should be towards the right in regards to this diagram, not towards the top. In other words, your images should be laying on their sides in this diagram. So if you can see the stripes on the diagram, imagine that you want them to be horizontal stripes on all of your cards. I hope that makes sense!

When making the cuts, you should make them in alphabetical order.

Card #1:
For this card, I cut the piece of Cinnamon Cider cardstock to 2" x 5 1/2". The sentiments for all of these cards come from the Here's a Card stamp set and are stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink on Whisper White cardstock. Here I punched it with the Label me Fancy punch. I punched a second piece from Cinnamon Cider and cut it in half. I layered one half under each of the sides of the Whisper White tag.

Card #2:
For the second card, and each of the cards that follow, I used the same piece of 6" x 6" DSP, but I use the front and the back so I have two different patterns. For this one, the 1/2" strip overlaps the wider strip. I mounted the DSP on a strip of Cinnamon Cider cardstock cut to 1 3/4" x 4 1/4". The greeting is cut out with a Stitched Rectangle die. For the ribbon, I wrapped the white linen ribbon around the card and adhered it flat to the card front under where the greeting is. Then, I slipped the gingham ribbon underneath it and tied it in a bow.

Card #3:
Here, the three 1/2" strips of DSP are adhered to a piece of Cinnamon Cider cardstock cut to 2" x 4 1/4". The card base is Bumblebee. I think this might be my favorite new In Color right now. It's so warm and sunny. I punched out the greeting using the 2" circle punch and added a trio of Magenta Madness enamel dots.

Card #4:
The last card has a Misty Moonlight card base. The three strips are adhered to a 3" x 4 1/2" piece of Cinnamon Cider with the two skinnier pieces on the outside. This time I punched the greeting with the Tailored Tag punch. Like the first card, I punched a second tag from Cinnamon Cider cardstock and cut it in half. I attached one half to mat the top half of the greeting and the 2nd for the bottom half.
