Dandy Designs Saleabration Designer Series Paper
Favored Flowers Saleabration Designer Series Paper + Something Fancy Bundle

What's that? A fun and efficient way to use your Designer Series Paper if you like to make multiple cards at a time! 

I have a FREE project sheet you can download here: https://lp.constantcontactpages.com/su/eIWgfst/12x12onesheetwonder

The instructions are also here on the blog today.

Here is the template: 

Cutting the DSP this way will give you 6 (4 x 5-1/4") pieces
and 6 (3/4 x 4") pieces so plan to create 6 identical cards!

I chose a floral theme and an adventure theme as the examples to show you the range of Dandy Designs DSP but also that any theme will be adorable with a one sheet wonder!

If you are in a crafty rut, if you are new to cardmaking, if you get stuck when it comes to design... if you love all of the new Saleabration items you've gotten but you aren't sure how to use all of that paper... the one sheet wonder will be so much fun for you to try! I really think if given the chance you will love it!

CARD MEASUREMENTS: 

• Card Base: 4-1/4  x 11" score at 5-1/2" - Fresh Freesia Cardstock
• Basic Black Cardstock Layer: 4-1/8 x 5-3/8"
• Dandy Designs Fresh Freesia Plaid DSP Layer: 4 x 5-1/4" (one sheet wonder cut)
• Dandy Designs Fresh Freesia DSP Strip Piece: 3/4 x 4" (one sheet wonder cut)
• Scalloped Contour Die (2-3/8 x 3-3/4" size) - Fresh Freesia
• Favored Flowers DSP Layer: 2 x 3-1/4"
• Something Fancy Die Cut - Basic White (1-1/4 x 2-1/8" size)
• 3 Evening Evergreen Opal Rounds from the 2021-2023 In Color Opal Rounds
• INSERT (for the inside of card) Basic White Cardstock 4 x 5-1/4"

NOTE: The goal of the one sheet wonder is to use every inch of your DSP in an economical and fun way! I recommend cutting the above pieces x 6 so you can make all 6 cards at once in a sort of assembly line style. You can get two card bases out of one sheet of 8-1/2 x 11" cardstock.

INSTRUCTIONS:

 Glue the Basic Black panel to the card base.

Glue the DSP piece next and then the 3/4" strip in the center of the card. Flip the piece over so you are using a different pattern than the piece you just glued down.

Glue Favored Flowers DSP to the scalloped rectangle. Stamp "Thank You" from Something Fancy stamp set in Stayz On Jet Black Ink onto the die cut piece in Basic White cardstock. Place the sentiment die cut and the scalloped rectangle up on dimensionals and add to card, center.

Finish with the opal rounds, two bottom left and one top right. 

CARD MEASUREMENTS: 

• Card Base: 4-1/4  x 11" score at 5-1/2" - Coastal Cabana Cardstock
• Basic Black Cardstock Layer: 4-1/8 x 5-3/8"
• Dandy Designs Coastal Cabana Plaid DSP Layer: 4 x 5-1/4" (one sheet wonder cut)
• Dandy Designs Coastal Cabana DSP Strip Piece: 3/4 x 4" (one sheet wonder cut)
• Scalloped Contour Die (2-3/8 x 3-3/4" size) - Garden Green Cardstock
• Enjoy the Journey Coastal Cabana Mountain and Tree theme DSP Layer: 2 x 3-1/4"
• Die Cut Hiker in Basic Black Cardstock
• 3 Soft Succulent Opal Rounds from the 2021-2023 In Color Opal Rounds
• INSERT (for the inside of card) Basic White Cardstock 4 x 5-1/4"

INSTRUCTIONS:

The one sheet wonder steps are exactly the same. The only differences here are stamping the sentiment directly onto the Enjoy the Journey Designer Series Paper in Stayz On Ink in Jet Black. Sentiment: Mountain of Thanks from Greatest Journey Stamp Set. This card also features a die cut of a hiker holding a lantern, cut in Basic Black cardstock for the perfect silhouette for the forest/ mountain scene. The embellishments on this card Soft Succulent instead of Evening Evergreen.

TIP:

If you are choosing a pattern like the mountain and trees, take a few dies in your favorite size and shape and hold it up to the paper. See if the size die you chose shows the pieces of the DSP you want your card recipient to enjoy. If it looks good and captures the scene then cut it out! I cut the Mountain DSP in 2" strips from left to right. I made sure that the trees stayed visible and trimmed the skyline down until it measured to 3-1/4" (the size that fits into the scalloped rectangle die). The result was fabulous! 

You can plug any theme into a one sheet wonder.

If you enjoyed this then do a search for one sheet wonder and you'll see so many different configurations that you can cut your DSP to and get on a whole set of cards! It's so much fun to watch these cards come together assembly style!

I will include a full product list of the items used to create these cards today.
