A couple of weeks ago Shannon West, from Stampin' Up! shared her Double Wonder cards. She cut two pieces or designer series papers to 6"x 12". Then she showed us how to cut those two pieces, a sheet of Whisper White card stock, a punch, a saying stamp, little bit of ribbon and 11 card bases to create 11 cards. Below you can see a picture of all 11 cards that I made using this idea.
Cutting the 6" x 12" DSP at 4-1/2". Then you cut the 4-1/2" x 6" into 1-1/2" strips. Then each of these strips gets cut in half so that you have 12 pieces of 1-1/2" x 3" pieces. Use those pieces to create these four cards. The Whisper White is cut at 5" x 3-1/4".
Taking your DSP, cut it at 4". Trim 3/4" off the 4" side of the paper. Set those pieces aside. Then cut into 1" strips. You should get 8 strips that are 1" x 5-1/4". You can see how these are used on cards here. The front of the card is scored at 1-1/4" and folded back on the front of the card. I taped mine down but you wouldn't have too. After I took this picture I decided to add a daisy stamped lightly behind the words. It dressed up these cards nicely.
The last piece of DSP that you have left should be 3-1/2" x 6". Cut 2-1/4" from the bottom of this piece. Cut another 2-1/4" from the bottom. You should have 4 pieces of 2-1/4" x 3-1/2". The last piece cut in half so that you have 4 pieces of 1-1/2" x 1-3/4". Using the strips from the middle section, you will create these three cards.
If all of that is too much work or too much math or just too hard to understand, let me do the cutting and scoring for you. I am offering this as a card to go class at the moment. You will get the supplies to create all 11 cards with envelopes for $15. I will be using different designer series papers and colored bases but you will get 11 cards using this layout to put together. I will also give you these instructions on a PDF. I am willing to make porch drop offs or pick ups. Let me know what you want!
Happy Stampin'!
