Welcome to our NEW blog.
We recognise, whilst there are many challenge blogs for all
forms of papercrafts and card making, so why a new one ?
We hope to reach newbies, to provide new challenges where you can learn
new techniques and new skills.
Many seasoned challengers may also enjoy joining in our
challenges to re-awaken long lost skills and techniques., or
just to join in for the fun of it.

So, let's get started.
Challenge # 3 Use Your Paper-
One Sheet Wonder Cards
We said we would be attempting different projects,
so we have one here, for more inormation of different
template ideas go to Pinterest here.
From 1 sheet of 12" x 12" patterned card
to make cards, minumum of two - as many as you can.
The Works sell 12" pads with amazing colours and styles for £3
or Use Up Your Paper.
There are a number of designs to get the maximum
use of your paper. Here is an example.
This will help any newbie or seasoned crafter to make the
most use out of their papers.
Let's see how the Design Team played with their paper.

ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the top pick. Congrats to everyone!
ReplyDeleteFound this challenge through Marina... I hope to join, too! I've bookmarked the challenge as well. Very cool #3! I love to use my patterned paper!
ReplyDeleteWow I didn't know you could get so many card from one 12x12! Thanks for the tip. I would love to see a Mixed media one layer type challenge for those of us who like mixed media but not using so many layers. Thanks again and good luck with the new challenge blog! Hugs, Gwendolyn
ReplyDeleteAs a newbie, it's great to look at stamps and dies as to how you change them around to get more use out of them. E.g.: hearts can be turned into fish, flowers, clover leaves, etc.
