6x6 One Sheet Wonder Template #15 featuring MFT

 

Hello crafty friends! Today I am sharing how to use up 6x6 patterned papers without creating any scraps. This method is similar to the idea of a One Sheet Wonder and I will refer to them in that way since it makes sense to many crafters. To the best of my knowledge, the One Sheet Wonder is a concept Stampin' Up demonstrators have been using for years and so credit to them for the name and inspiration of the idea. Today I am sharing how to cut up a 6x6 piece of paper that will result in 2 of the exact same card. I am using cardstock and glitter paper as well which will create some cardstock and glitter paper scraps. However I am also sharing what you might do to maximize those scraps. In this blog post you can find a template for how to cut your paper as well as a sketch to show what should be done with those cuts. Of course feel free to mix it up to your own liking.

Reverse Confetti Challenge: Love is in the Air

 

I picked up the cute little Yuletide Mice stamp set from Reverse Confetti because it was a super cute Christmas set that I thought I could use outside of the Christmas season as well. So when I saw the latest Reverse Confetti Stock Your Stash challenge Love is in the Air, I thought it would be fun to challenge myself to use the Yuletide Mice for this theme. I was inspired by the colors of the Sweet Stripes paper and colored my little mouse to match. I love how keeping the color palette limited really makes a clean and simple card stand out a bit more. There's still over a week left so be sure to check out the challenge!

6x6 Paper Pad Tutorial with No Scraps- 54 Cards with Authentique Love Notes

Hello crafty friends! Today's post/video is a slightly different take on a 6x6 paper pad tutorial. I've done one other 6x6 paper pad tutorial similar to this in the past, but today I'm gathering the resources in a way that is hopefully more succinct and straight forward. With this process I can easily whip up a bunch of cards for card drives like Cards for Hospitalized Kids. If you want more info on donating cards or get jokes for your cards please check out my Card Drive Resources page. I LOVE that when I'm done there is nothing left of the patterned paper packs. To see it all in action check out the video.

6x6 One Sheet Wonder Template #13 featuring MFT and Simon Says Stamp

Hello crafty friends! Today I am sharing how to use up 6x6 patterned papers without creating any patterned paper scraps. A friend shared that this style of cardmaking can be referred to as a one sheet wonder. I'm not sure who originated the style, as I have seen many crafters refer to it, but please let me know if I should be crediting a specific crafter. Today I am sharing how to cut up a 6x6 piece of paper that will result in 2 of the exact same card. I am using cardstock to mat the patterned paper pieces which will create some cardstock scraps.

12x12 Two Sheet Wonder Template #1 featuring Simple Stories

Hello crafty friends! Today's post/video are much requested and I hope will be well received. I have been asked for ideas for using 12x12 paper for awhile and I recently picked up some of the Simple Stories Little Princess collection to share. Today I will show you how to use 2 pieces of 12x12 paper to make 12 cards with NO patterned paper scraps! 

This post is not sponsored but compensated affiliate links are used below. 

I know a lot of 12x12 paper collections some with 3x4 cut aparts so I designed my template and sketches with that in mind. However if you are trying to use 12x12 paper without these sized cut aparts, you can simply cut a second sheet to 3x4 or use 3x4 journaling cards. The template will give you the cuts to make 12 cards (2 of each 6 designs) and a 12x12 paper will yield 12 cut aparts so no scraps. I will share the template and sketches in the post, but you can also download a printable PDF that has the template and sketches.
