Stamped A4 One Sheet Wonder Cards set

Following on from the last 2 days post... this was actually the first sheet I stamped one sheet wonder style...
But I was surprised ... as I realised that I had filled everything in... rather than  leaving lots of white space as 'those of you that visit me regularly' would have assumed I would have done!
So I could call this the technique that continues to amaze (me!)
And a shot of what I used on this one... as totally different to yesterdays... Blossoms in Bloom for the main parts... leaves from Sending Sunshine again... and greetings from So Sentimental...
Note that I applied a darker Midnight Muse (with a dauber) to the centre of the large flowers image before stamping... which I forgot to show in the shot of what I used below...

Oh plus the Waterfront splats and Very Versailles text... 
Though I will admit that ... in the future... I would stamp any text after cutting up my panels... as that way I wouldn't have to use my panels in the direction of the text!

Though funnily enough I can cope with this text being upside down... as I don't think you can really tell! But I don't like it running up or down in direction aka on its side...

Tuesday Techniques & Tips - Blossoms in Bloom - Split Card Technique

So this technique is all the rage at the moment so I couldn't resist trying it out and adding my own (very little) twist...

But before I start... the Box of  Sunshine Paper Pumpkin kit is now available to order... Makes 8 cards and envelopes and is specially designed to help you create a sunshine box: a yellow box full of goodies to brighten someone’s day! Includes stamp set and ink. Stamping block not included. 

Only available while supplies last... Click here for more details OR click here to just go and order ...  
And now back to today's main event!

Original brainchild and shared by Jennifer McGuire in early May 2020... as the Split Card Technique... though I have also seen others refer to it as Split Front Card technique.. or even an alternative One Sheet Wonder technique...

Basically the simple creation of one panel... and then trim that panel to produce panels for multiple cards... so creating more than one card at a time... 4 in this case... Quick & simple... 

My starting Whisper White card panel was 16 cm Square (6 1/4")...

Which I stamped the large image in the Blossoms in Bloom stamp set at the centre... using new In Color inks - Bumble Bee and Cinnamon Cider...
And then at each of the 4 corners...
Then I cut the large panel down to four 8cm squares (3 1/8")... 
Stamped the greetings in Cinnamon Cider... which meant that I did change the orientation of some of the panels so that they were most pleasing to my eye!

Mounted them onto 8.5cm square (3 3/8") Bumble Bee or Cinnamon Cider panels...
And onto my new favourite 9.9cm ( 3 15/16") card blank size (as 3 cards from a sheet of A4)
Think these have to be the quickest and simplest cards I have produced all year!
