After having a go at my first One sheet wonder (see previous post Wild About You), I decided I would like to make another one but this time with a girly theme.
I used the Bugs and Kisses Stamp Set and have once again made a set of 9 girls’s Birthday Cards. I find that this is a fantastic way to show my customers how versitile one stamp set can be.
The colours that I used to create my cards are:
Rose Red, Regal Rose, Pretty in Pink, Certainly Celery and Chocolate Chip.
The first thing you do is stamp up your sheet of plain card stock . In this case I used and A4 sheet of Whisper White:
Then following the cutting guide I made, I cut up the sheet as follows to make 9 individual cards.
After cutting the sheet into pieces you may notice that you have some spaces or blanks, this is where the little ant and lady beetle came in handy as they were small enough to ink up and fill in the spaces with.
Next I created my cards. I have photographed them in groups of 3.
Cards 1, 2, 3
Cards 4, 5, 6
Cards 7, 8, 9
Finally I made a Tote Bag using the Tutorial on Liam Pucher’s Site under Tutorial for pocket tote bag my version!. You can find it here.
It holds all 9 cards and their envelopes.
I just love making these matching sets of cards. I give my background stamps and different punches a real workout and I enjoy creating different card ideas with the same theme in mind.
I hope you enjoyed looking at them
Until next time Happy Stamping

Thankyou for you lovely comment. I found your tutorial very easy to follow and it was just what I was looking for to make a cute little holder for this set of cards.
Thankyou for doing all the hard work and making the necessary adjustments so that it will hold our standard size A5 cards and envelopes.

Hi Linda
Congratulations on your little girl - I am terribly slack and have not done too much after convention, but certainly kept an eye out for your good news.
This is a wonderful set and if ok with you would like to share with others. You have provided some much needed inspiration!
Take care
