Card Variations

So, I hosted my first "One Sheet Wonder" workshop.  It was A LOT.  I've decided to pare it down for the next card-making adventure.  We will do a 6x6 one sheet wonder workshop instead when we get to our holiday themed workshop.

The great thing about a OSW design is that it also gives you ideas of how to use your scraps.  Have a scrap that fits one of the cuts in the OSW template?  Great!  Use it!  To show my creative crew how to get different looks on the same design of cards, I made a few of the OSW set with my scraps.

Here's the OSW card:

And here's a card I made for my eldest nephew's 9th birthday this month using the same design:
For the patterned paper, there's just one scrap on it.

I think it turned out pretty cute.  This design is so universal.  It's also pretty simple, since it calls for a single, large focal image.  I could have texture embossed the backgrounds.  If I had a stars embossing folder, I so would have used that for the rocket card!

  2. Your cards are lovely.
    I love sketches for the fact you can use them for so many different card types.
