Welcome to our All Star monthly blog hop for the Regency Park Suite! We are excited to share even MORE ideas than what we are offering in our exclusive Video Class Bundle that I shared on April 1st.
I haven’t done a “One Sheet Wonder” in quite some time. And with the anticipation (and now the confirmation) that the designer paper in this suite would be retiring, I created One Sheet Wonder cards with designer papers AND without.
A One Sheet Wonder is basically a way of cutting a sheet of paper/cardstock (with images) in a way where ALL the pieces become layers to decorate and create multiple coordinating cards. I came up with a pattern for cutting 6×6 paper (the size of the Regency Park Designer Paper sheets) so that the pieces cut create layers for and decorate three different but coordinating cards. And because I was worried that the designer paper pack might sell out soon (or even before I shared in this blog post), I used some stamp images in this suite and made my own 6×6 designer papers to show you my first set of cards.
On the left is an example of stamped patterned paper you could create with stamp images (the one I picked for my finished cards is a bit different) and on the right is how you would cut it (or how you would cut any 6×6 patterned paper) when creating the following card layouts…
I have two other sets of cards to show you that I made with the Regency Park Designer Paper sheets. But let me first walk you through this set of three cards. You can then apply the directions and tips to recreate the other sets or different sets that you want to make with other paper patterns.
Products I used… a complete list of products I used is shown below, and everything is linked to where you can find them in my online store.
Measurements (and tips for cutting)…
- Basic White Cardstock (or a sheet of Regency Park Designer Paper)
- (3) 4-1/8″ x 5-3/8″ for the inside layers
- (3) 2″ x 3-1/4″ for die-cutting sentiment layers
- Start with a 6″ x 6″ sheet
- Cut off 1-1/4″ from one side and then cut that piece in half to form two 1-1/4″ x 3″ pieces
- Rotate the main piece a quarter turn and trim off 2″ to form a 2″ x 4-3/4″ piece
- Then rotate the main piece one more time and trim off two 1″ strips to form two 1″ x 4″ pieces and one 2-3/4″ x 4″ piece
- Pool Party Cardstock for the card bases
- (2) 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ scored parallel to the short side at 4-1/4″
- (1) 4-1/4″ x 11″ scored parallel to the short side at 5-1/2″
- Pretty Peacock Cardstock
- 1-7/8″ x 2-5/8″
- 2-1/8″ x 4-7/8″
- 2-7/8″ x 4-1/8″
- Blackberry Bliss Cardtock
- Scraps for die-cutting flowers
- Fresh Freesia
- Scraps for die-cutting flowers
Directions…
- Create your 6×6 patterned paper: Stamp the outline floral images first, then stamp the inside solid images within. I used Blackberry Bliss and Pretty Peacock for my darker colors and had to keep cleaning my outline image stamp and switching colors as I filled in images across the paper. After the outline images were added and everything was spaced well, I stamped all the Fresh Freesia centers first then the Pool Party centers. I added the silver dots after cutting.
- Cut the patterned paper using the directions above. Prepare the remaining pieces. Die-cut the flowers, die-cut the sentiment layers, and stamp the sentiments.
- Optional…Add super tiny drops of Multipurpose Liquid Glue to fill in the white space of the patterned paper. Sprinkle on silver embossing powder and tap off the excess. Then heat to create the shiny silver dots. The dots of glue have to be almost microscopic. Hahaha! Seriously don’t make them too big, or you’ll have problems when you try to heat emboss.
- Stamp and add the inside white layers. Add the patterned paper and Pretty Peacock layers to the outside front. Add the sentiment layers with Dimensionals. Then add the flowers with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
- Finally add small rhinestones in or around the die-cut flowers.
I hope you enjoyed those ideas! Now to make it even easier, use pre-printed designer paper. On these two other sets I used paper from the Regency Park pack. Remember…one sheet can accent 3 cards. So one pack can make 144 cards if you really want to go that far.
If you want to recreate these cards below, be sure to grab up the Regency Park paper pack before it retires. You’ll also want to invest in any coordinating colors. Oh! And I used the retiring Mango Melody cardstock for the accent flowers. Refer to the retiring products lists to see what is leaving. And then check out the online store to see if the products you want are still available.
Here are the 3 patterns (from each set) photographed separately.
If you want more One Sheet Wonder patterns for creating cards, check out my team member, Mackenzie Grimme’s site, Mackenzie Makes. She shares One Sheet Wonder patterns these quite often and has wonderful ideas!
