One Sheet Wonder

It’s been so wet and windy this week, too wet to spend much time outdoors, so I thought I’d join in with a One Sheet Wonder challenge on the Creative Minds - Kind Hearts Facebook page.  The challenge was to follow a template for cutting up a 12 x 12 sheet of patterned papers and use them all to design a collection of cards. Following the template, I had fifteen triangles and rectangles to work with and this is what I came up with.  The patterned paper is from a 12 x 12 paper pad from The Range.  Although it’s double sided, I challenged myself to use just one side.

To finish my cards I used plain card, die cuts, sentiment stamps, pearls, Card Candi and a piece of ribbon.









I used one full sheet of yellow card, but the navy, white, jade and the rest of the yellow card was from my snippets drawer, so I’ll be joining in the Snippets challenge over in The Playground with my last card.

I am joining in the following challenges with this card:

  11. Absolutely brilliant cards Liz! Even if it wasn't 'one sheet wonder' your designs can be applied to a host of patterned snippets - great work. I must try this 'one sheet' idea sometime, you used a fabulously patterned sheet there BTW!

    Happy New Year

    Hugs
