craftykarendesigns: Expressions in Ink 6" x 6" One Sheet Wonder

Hi Everyone,

I love a One Sheet Wonder! Anything to make this pretty paper go further so I don't run out haha! I've made four cards and I wanted to dsp to be the focus so have gone very simple with a touch of gold foil as the accent. Let me show you how I made them:

Materials

4 pieces of thick basic white card 5 7/8" x 8 1/4"

1 piece of 6" x 6" dsp cut as per the template below

Gold foil - 3 pieces 1 3/4" x 3 1/4", 1 piece 1 3/4" x 4 3/4", 1 piece 3 1/4" square, 3 pieces 1 3/4" square

Polished pink ink

Create with Friends stamp set

Trimmer

Simply Scored

Bone folder

Multipurpose adhesive

Instructions

Score the card bases at 4 1/8" on the long side and fold and burnish.

Cut the dsp as per the template below

Card 1 - dsp 3 x 1 2/2" x 3"

Card 2 - dsp 1 x 1 1/2" x 4 1/2"

Card 3 - 1 x 3" square

Card 4 - 3 x 1 1/2" square

Card 1

Adhere the 3 pieces of dsp to 3 pieces of gold foil and arrange across the card base in a landscape formation, make sure that you leave room underneath to stamp. I stamped the sentiment first and then adhered the panels in place - just in case I messed up the stamping!

Card 2

Adhere the dsp panel to the gold foil and place on portrait card base to judge where to stamp your sentiment. Stamp the sentiment on the lower right hand side and then adhere the panel on the left.

Card 3

Adhere the dsp to the gold panel and place in the centre of the portrait card towards the top. Stamp the sentiment towards the bottom in the centre and then adhere the panel in place.

Card 4

Adhere the dsp to the gold panels and place across the centre of the landscape card base. Stamp the sentiment above and below the panels and then adhere them in place.

I haven't used any further embellishments on these cards, I wanted to keep them very simple and let the dsp do the talking. I hope that you like them. Don't forget to pop over and see what Donna and Victoria have made this week too.
