One sheet wonder-ful!!

Hello and happy Friday to you!! I have had the best time playing in my stamp room today!! I wanted to make something that was a little more involved than a card, but not so in depth that it would take me all day to do it. So, I decided on an oldie, but definitely a goodie!! Have you ever heard of a One Sheet Wonder?! This is such a fun project, because it has no rules and the possibilities are literally endless!! Want to see what I am talking about?

Ok, so I made all of these from one single sheet that I stamped!!! How cool is that?!! I was able to get 2 standard cards, 3 3" x 3" cards, and 2 tags all from this one sheet with very little waste left over! I will show you how at the bottom of this post.

I started with an 8.5" x 11" blank piece of Very Vanilla and using the stamp set Bloomin' Love and several colors (all listed below!). I went to town just randomly stamping images all over the page.

After I did all of my fancy measuring and cutting apart I adhered all of my pieces to Sweet Sugarplum card bases.

I started with my full size cards and using left over scraps I decorated them. I kept the cards super simple as not to detract too much from the background piece. ( I worked hard to make that!) LOL

Next I moved on to my 3" x 3"'s keeping the color scheme the same.

Then on to my tags! This fun little set has a Valentine's Day feel, which is fortunate since it is right around the corner!

Here is a diagram of the way I cut my paper to make all of these. You can cut yours any way you'd like and if you were really creative you could even get several more pieces and make even more projects! This worked well for me today though!
