Hello there! I had the absolute best time working on this project!! It is called a One Sheet Wonder and it is called that because you start with one sheet of decorated paper and cut it up in a way that allows you to make oodles of cards from it all at one time! Wonder(ful!)!! I started with a 12" x 12" piece of Designer paper and was able to get 18 projects from it!! *thud...falls over!!* Say whuuuut?! Take a look:
Here are my 18 projects! I was able to make 13 full sized cards, 4 3" x 3" cards, and 1 tag all decorated from 1single sheet of DSP!!
I chose a piece from the Under the Mistletoe paper pack. Here is what it looks like on the front and the back. (I only actually used one piece though!)
I used Old Olive, Real Red and Whisper White as my card bases.
This is what my color palette looked like together.
I started off by cutting my DSP into 18 pieces. There is a picture at the bottom showing exactly how I cut apart my DSP if you'd like to do this project!
Then I cut and scored all of my card bases.
Next I started laying things out like a puzzle! Pictured here are all 18 projects in their beginning stages.

...and finally a tag! It measures 4 1/4" x 5 1/2.
This was a really fun project and puts me that much closer to being ready for the holidays!!
Here is the way I cut up my 12" x 12" sheet of DSP. I used every piece of it! NO scraps at all left over!
Please feel free to ask if you have any questions at all! This is a great way to make the most of your paper when making several cards at a time!
Here are all of the goodies I used on my projects today:
