Expressions in Ink 6x6" One Sheet Wonder. InspireINK Blog Hop June 2021

Good Morning Everyone,

Today I'm taking part in the Inspire Ink Monthly Blog Hop and for this one we are all creating cards using a one sheet wonder. If you are unfamiliar, basically you take a piece of DSP and cut it up in such a way that you get several pieces to decorate several different cards.

What's a One Sheet Wonder, I hear you ask? Basically you take a piece of DSP that measures 6x6" and cut it up in such a way that you can decorate several cards with the DSP - adding some card stock and sentiments and you've got a selection of card in quick time with minimal supplies. In fact you can get the DSP to cover 16 cards from just one full sheet of the DSP>

These are the cards I created today..

And this is the template I followed from mypapercraftjourney.blogspot.com

Measurements

2pc - 11 3/4" x 4 1/8", scored at 5 7/8"

Expressions in Ink DSP

A selection of basic white, basic black and polished pink scraps

-------------------------------

First fold and burnish the Card Stock along the score lines to create your card bases. Add the Basic Wihte panels to the inside.

Take your piece of 6x6" DSP and cut as per the template above. Add card stock mats to the back of some of the DSPm I added 1/8" to all my DSP measurements. There was no particular reason about my colour choices per card, I just went through my scraps of In colour card stock and picked pieces that fit.

Create some sentiment layers by stamping them using the in colour inks, matting onto the card stock.

Now assemble the cards, I stamped some sentiments directly onto the card front, I added DSP and Sentiment panels to the cards and I think I've managed to get four really pretty cards. what do you think?
