Hi Stampers. Are you familiar with a one sheet wonder? Do you ever find your self in need of alot of cards FAST or with extra DSP to use up? A one sheet wonder may be just what you need! This month you can get your hands on TWENTY-FOUR of them by placing an order with me of $30 or more (and using this months hostess code). Each month I have a Customer Appreciation PDF and this month it’s a wowzer! This packet was put together by a number of us Stampin’ Up! demonstrators, today I’m showing you my entry – AND giving you a video! Don’t forget to place an order using the hostess code 6AYMZDTE to get the rest of them.
My one sheet wonder today, makes six cards! I chose to use the Tidings of Christmas DSP, but it can be done with ANY Designer Series Paper.
This diagram shows where the cuts were made for this One Sheet Wonder.
Card 1:
This card uses the two 1″ x 3″ strips of DSP. I added in two 1″ x 3″ strips of Real Red CS and one of Soft Succulent CS. Soft Succulent and Very Vanilla CS make up my label. The sentiment, from Perfectly Plaid, is stamped in Evening Evergreen ink. The final touch is the tree punched out of Evening Evergreen CS, with a small rhinestone on top.
Card 2:
This is one of the two cards using the 4″ square of DSP that was cut in half diagonally. There is a 4″ x 5-1/4″ layer of Soft Succulent CS over the Evening Evergreen card base. Using the Basic Border Dies, I die cut a Real Red border to poke from underneath. Real Red and Very Vanilla CS were used to make my sentiment labels. The sentiment, from Peaceful Deer, is stamped in Evening Evergreen ink.
Card 3:
This card uses the 4″ x 2″ piece of DSP. It is backed by a 4-1/4″ x 2-1/4″ layer of Real Red CS. The sentiment, from Perfectly Plaid, is stamped in Evening Evergreen ink onto a label cut from Very Vanilla CS using the Tasteful Label Dies.
Card 4:
Card four also uses a 4″ x 5-1/4″ layer of Soft Succulent CS and then uses those tiny triangles. They may be small, but they do add something to the card, don’t you think? Using the Tasteful Label Dies, I die cut the labels from Very Vanilla and Real Red CS. Evening Evergreen ink was used for the sentiment, as well as the trees and snowflakes in the corners.
Card 5:
This card is very similar to card two, in that it uses the other half of the 4″ square that was cut diagonally. To change it up, I made this one portrait orientation (the other was landscape). The sentiment is stamped onto a strip of Very Vanilla in Evening Evergreen ink. I cut a slightly larger Real Red strip to back it and then flagged the end of both using the Banner Pick a Punch. Some Linen Thread is wrapped around the right side and then it’s mounted to the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Card 6:
In the way that card two and card five were similar, this card is similar to card four. This time the corners were pushed further into the corner of the Soft Succulent layer (no border) and the card is turned portrait orientation. I also changed up the sentiment, die cutting the labels out of Real Red and Very Vanilla CS using the Tasteful Labels Dies. Below is a video tutorial on my one sheet wonder that goes into more detail.

Hi Stampers. Yesterday I featured a card made with the Delicate Dahlias stamp set. CLICK HERE to see that card. The Delicate Dahlias stamp set is a level two Sale-a-bration freebie, great for two step stamping. While yesterday’s card was made with standard CS and ink, today’s card is stepped up a bit, using silver foil and heat embossing.
My card starts with a Gorgeous Grape card base 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″, scored at 4-1/4″. This is followed by a 4″ x 5-1/4″ layer of the Mercury Glass Acetate adhered with glue dots, hidden under the silver parts. Next up is a 3-1/2″ x 4-3/4″ layer of Silver Foil adhered with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
The stamping was done on a 3-1/4″ x 4-1/2″ layer of Basic White CS. The large Dahlia from the Delicate Dahlias stamp set was stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink. The leaves were stamped in Smokey Slate ink. Next, I added the detailed stamps, stamped in Versamark ink over the top. Silver embossing powder was added to the top, tapped off and heat set with the Heat Tool. The sentiment, also from the Delicate Dahlias stamp set, is stamped in the lower left corner in Gorgeous Grape ink. A few Basic Rhinestone Jewels scattered about finish it off.
Inside the card is a 4″ x 5-1/4″ layer of Basic White CS. The sentiment, from Delicate Dahlias, is stamped in the center in Gorgeous Grape ink. The small flowers (also in the Delicate Dahlias stamp set) were stamped in the corners in Gorgeous Grape ink.

Hi Stampers. For our Pals blog hop last week, I shared a swinging pendulum card made using the Birds & Branches bundle. (see that post HERE) In that post, I mentioned that I had done another swinging pendulum card using the Dragonfly Garden bundle. Here it is!
(Above is a 6 second video of it swinging. You can see a complete video of how the card was made on my Facebook Page HERE or an edited version will be on my YouTube channel soon.)
My swinging pendulum card starts with a Mossy Meadow card base, 4-1/4″ x 11″, scored at 5-1/2″. To hold my pendulum, I cut a small strip of Mossy Meadow CS, 1/2″ x 2″, scored at 1/2″, 1″ and 1-1/2″. The two middle pieces were glued together and the two outside flaps were adhered to either side of the inside of the card, at the top, over the score line. A small hole was punched in the part that is glued together and at the top of a 1/4″ x 4″ strip of Window Sheet.
The front of my swinging pendulum card is covered with a 4″ x 5-1/4″ layer of Dandy Garden DSP and a 4″ x 5-1/4″ layer of Basic White CS is adhered in the center of the card. In the center of the card front, I die cut a large circle, using the Layering Circles Dies and a ring was die cut using that circle and a slightly larger scalloped circle with Bumblebee CS. Using the Dragonfly Punch I punched a dragonfly from the Dandy Garden DSP and another from Mossy Meadow CS. The two were then attached to the strip of Window Sheet (one on either side) using mini glue dots. A brad was used to attached the top of the Window Sheet strip to the bracket at the top of the card.
The sentiment, from the Birds and Branches stamp set is stamped onto a 3/4″ x 4″ strip of Basic White CS using Merry Merlot ink. Linen Thread was wrapped around the right side and the Pick A Banner Punch was used to punch the left side. This strip was then adhered to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
A blank 4″ x 5-1/4″ Basic White layer is adhered to the back of the card for a handwritten message.

Hi Stampers. Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop! This month, the theme is “My Happiest Season”. We really hope that you enjoy and will be inspired by them! As you hop from blog to blog, don’t forget to leave comments because we love hearing from you. You will find the lineup at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal. I hope you like my swinging pendulum card.
I think my favorite season is Fall. I’m not a fan of alot of heat (unless I can be in water), so the idea of things cooling off, but not yet freezing, sounds wonderful. As a way to showcase Fall for our hop, I made a swinging pendulum card. (Above is a 4 second video of it swinging. You can see a complete video of how the card was made on my Facebook Page HERE or an edited version will be on my YouTube channel soon.)
This pendulum card starts with a Merry Merlot card base, 4-1/4″ x 11″, scored at 5-1/2″. To hold my pendulum, I cut a small strip of Merry Merlot CS, 1/2″ x 2″, scored at 1/2″, 1″ and 1-1/2″. The two middle pieces were glued together and the two outside flaps were adhered to either side of the inside of the card, at the top, over the score line. A small hole was punched in the part that is glued together and at the top of a 1/4″ x 4″ strip of Window Sheet.
The front of the pendulum card is covered with a 4″ x 5-1/4″ layer of Beauty of the Earth DSP and a 4″ x 5-1/4″ layer of Basic White CS is adhered in the center of the card. In the center of the card front, I die cut a large circle, using the Layering Circles Dies and a ring was die cut using that circle and a slightly larger scalloped circle with Merry Merlot CS.
Using the Birds & Branches stamp set, I stamped the nest in Crumb Cake ink (with some thumping of Early Espresso and Soft Suede markers) and the bird is stamped in Misty Moonlight. These were then die cut using the Birds and More dies and attached to the strip of Window Sheet using mini glue dots. A brad was used to attached the top of the Window Sheet strip to the bracket at the top of the card.
The sentiment, from the Birds and Branches stamp set is stamped onto a 3/4″ x 4″ strip of Basic White CS using Merry Merlot ink. Linen Thread was wrapped around the right side and the Pick A Banner Punch was used to punch the left side. This strip was then adhered to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Next, I cut a stabilizer piece to go in the bottom that is another Merry Merlot piece 2-1/2″ x 4-1/4″, scored at 1/2″, 1-1/4″ and 2″. This piece was folded as a “W”. After the pendulum is added this piece is adhered with the 1/2″ pieces adhered to either side of the inside bottom of the card. Because this encloses the inside, I added a 4″ x 5-1/4″ layer of Basic White CS to the back of the card, where the message could be written.

More inspiration awaits, so use the lineup below to visit the rest of the Design Team. The Pals are excited to show you what they’ve created! Then, please mark your calendars for our next blog hop on September 8th. Our theme will be “Focus on the Sentiment” when our Design Team creates a project showcasing a sentiment as the focal point of their project. Until then, have fun in your craft space.

Hi Stampers. For our convention a few months ago, Stampin’ Up! sent us this Enjoy the Moment stamp set for free. This stamp set is not one I would have picked and I was really stumped for ideas. The other day, I brought it out and challenged myself to come up with a few cards. With the help of Pinterest, I started to like it a little better.
Note: our new mini catalog goes live, in less than a week, Tuesday, August 3rd! Now is the time to purchase your product share. (see link below).
This monochromatic card starts out with a Soft Suede card base, 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″, scored at 4-1/4″. Next, up is a 3-3/4″ x 5″ layer of Soft Suede DSP and a 3-1/2″ x 4-3/4″ layer of Very Vanilla.
Using Versamark ink, I stamped this tall foliage from the Enjoy the Moment stamp set. Next, I added white embossing powder, tapped off excess and heated with the heat tool. Using the blending brushes, I brushed Soft Suede ink over the top. This is called the “emboss resist technique”. The Soft Suede ink does not stick to the embossed areas. (I used a tissue to buff the areas). Soft Suede ink was used to stamp the sentiment in the upper right corner.
I used Stampin’ Seal to adhere this layer to the DSP layer. Linen Tread (with a glue dot at either end) was wrapped around the two layers. These layers were then attached to the card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Inside the card is a layer of Very Vanilla, 4″ x 5-1/4″. The seed pods, from the Enjoy the Moment stamp set, are stamped across the bottom in Soft Suede and Crumb Cake inks. Soft Suede ink was used to stamp the sentiment in the middle of this layer.

Hi Stampers. Boy do I have a fun card for you today! I was asked by a customer to make a Hey Birthday Chick shaker card.
My Hey Birthday Chick shaker card started with a Bermuda Bay card base, 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″, scored at 4-1/4″. I used the Rectangle Stitched Dies to create the next two layers. The Coastal Cabana layer is approx. 5-1/4″ x 4″ layer, followed by a DSP layer that is approx. 5″ x 3-3/4″. Next, I skipped two sized and used a smaller die to cut the center out of those two layers for my window.
The Coastal Cabana layer and the DSP layer (with the window cut out) were adhered together and gently placed over a 5″ x 3-3/4″ layer of Basic White CS and I made light dots in the for corners of the window opening, so I knew where to stamp my inside layer. A layer of acetate was then added to the back of the front layer. I stamped my inside scene and colored with Stampin’ Blends and then erased the pencil marks.
Adhesive Foam trips were adhered around the Basic White CS layer and then I added the bird seed (it was supposed to be chicken feed, but I don’t have chickens and that was way too much to spend for a card – lol). Next, the backing was pulled of the Adhesive Foam Strips and the top layer was added, then the whole thing was added to the card base with Stampin’ Seal (optional foam strips along the outside edge to hide the gap (see both versions in the video below). The final touch was stamping the two chickens for the top layer and coloring them with Stampin’ Blends. These were die cut using the Birthday Chick Dies and adhered to the front with Stampin’ Seal.
Inside the Hey Birthday Chick shaker card is a 4″ x 5-1/4″ layer of Basic White CS. I used my markers to ink the confetti and sentiment stamp. The chick is stamped in Memento Black ink in the lower left corner and colored with the Stampin’ Blends. I die cut the chicken feed bag out of Crumb Cake CS and I adhered that in the bottom right corner.
