36 Fall Cards with Authentique Splendor 6x6 Paper Pad

Hello crafty friends! Today I have another 6x6 paper pad tutorial this time featuring Authentique. I am obsessed with 6x6 pads because it is so easy to create a bunch of cards without using many extra supplies. I picked out this collection because I was in a very Fall mood at the time but as mentioned in the video I did find it to be a bit of a challenge to work with because it is not my usual style.  I donate most of my cards and if you want more info on donating cards or get jokes for your cards please check out my Card Drive Resources page. So today I'm using the Authentique Splendor 6x6 paper pad to make 36 cards! To see it all in action check out the video.

I made 4 of each of the 9 designs and I used My Favorite Things sketch for 8 of the cards. Under each pictures I will include the measurements I used and which MFT sketch I used. I will not link each individual sketch but please go the the MFT resources page which is also linked in my supply list. I used some banner dies from my stash. If you do not have similar dies cut your own banners with scissors however the Whimsy Stamps Quick Strips die set is a great way to have many sentiment options in one die set and highly recommend it. If you would just like to see some additional card sketches created by me or download PDFs of those sketches click here.

Coffee Card featuring Newton's Nook Newton Loves Coffee

Hello crafty friends! I wanted to pop in with a quick card for the Coffee Lovers Blog Hop. One of my favorite coffee themed sets of all time is Newton's Nook Newton Loves Coffee from Super Sponsor Newton's Nook. So I did some elaborate no line coloring of Newton with lots of texture and then paired it with a simple sentiment for this card. The 'Warm Wishes' die is from Hello Bluebird and I used my Copics to get an ombre effect. Be sure to join in the hop for your chance to win a prize from one of 72 Super Sponsors!

I am sharing this Scrapping for Less mini kit because Teresa, the owner of Scrapping for Less, has decided to retire and is in the process of selling the inventory of her shop. Please head to this video to find out about this huge sale (30% off almost everything in the shop!). I have guest designed for Scrapping for Less in the past and Teresa asked past guest designers to share the sale, but did not ask for this video. I just wanted to share how you could apply my One Sheet Wonders to a kit and I really liked this mini kit from her shop.

I made 2 of almost every design but will note the specifics under each picture. Keep scrolling to see pictures of different designs and get some measurements. I used some sentiments and banner dies from my stash. If you do not have similar dies or punny stamp sets you can use more generic sentiments and cut your own banners with scissors. I also added some twine to use up from my stash. I will be sharing some sketches I created based on these card designs.

More 6x6 One Sheet Wonder Templates featuring Sunny Studio and Lawn Fawn

Hello crafty friends! Today I am sharing how to use 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 two different ways 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. In the video I share some ideas of what to do with 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 and if you share on Instagram please tag @jess.crafts and use the hashtag #jcosw so I can see your creations!
