My 2nd attempt at a Half Sheet Wonder

Hi again,

Wow! 2 posts in a nite! Can you tell I've been in my craft room the last few nights! First clearing some space and then creating cards and making a mess all over again lol! Such is life!!


Anyway, these cards are my 2nd batch of Half Sheet Wonder Cards. And I used the same colour combo too - Riding Hood Red, Whisper White, Summer Sun and Kiwi Kiss.

Card #1

For this card, I've used the Retro Remix wheel on the Riding Hood Red and my scallop punch for the Kiwi Kiss edges. Both the butterfly and flower are from the Hello Again stamp set.

Card #2


Thisis probably my favourite out of the 6 cards, its just makes me happy to look at it - must be all that  Summer Sun card (although I am surprised the sun can make me feel like that after the 40degrees+ weather we've been having.

Card #3


This layout probably took me the longest, but I'm happy with the results!

Well, off to bed for me, no stamping tonight (I spent too much time on facebook earlier tonight!).





Thanks for looking,


Half sheet wonder cards

Hi Everyone,

More browsing on Claire Daly's site has shown me the Half sheet wonder. Such a simple and yet effective way to get those creative juices flowing!! And to keep it even easier, I used the same colours for each card - Kiwi Kiss, Riding Hood Red, Summer Sun and Whisper White - I think this could well become a fav colour combo. However, I did challenge myself by only using the butterfly from the Hello Again stamp set and adding only words/phrases.




So here's my take on a half sheet wonder with my 3 cards:

Card #1

This first card is based on a Mojo Monday sketch sheet that I printed out back in August - its amazing what you can find whilst cleaning up a desk! lol!! However, if I'm honest, I think something is missing or maybe I should have used bigger circles... mmmm

Card #2

I've added some chic' and classy b&w gingham here and really like how its smartened up my card.

Card #3



Well, 2 out of 3 cards I stuck to only the butterfly... This one I added some detail to the kiwi kiss card frames with the cute little asterisk from the Hello Again set. And instead of ribbon, I used some Stampin' Up Black brads.


Thanks for looking,
