Use the Double Wonder Template to make 11 quick cards! Join me Thursday night!


Do you ever planned a stamping session focusing on just a few products? It's easy to get overwhelmed with everything you own.  Using this method is actually quite liberating and fuels the creative process.  I've started doing that more and more often especially when planning my card kits to go.  I pick Stampin' Up! products from the same suite and choose some sketches or layouts for card ideas.  the process is so enjoyable this way!  

Lately I've been seeing groups of cards using the Double Wonder template and had to try it.  It was originally designed by Shannon West from Stampin' Up!  It's so clever!! You start out with 2 pieces of 6" X 12" designer paper and using the pieces you can quickly have 11 finished cards!

Look at these! I'll be making these cards Live tomorrow night at 7 pm CT. Join me either here on FB or on Zoom.  

Here are the steps: 

  1. Pick out 2 different sheets of 6 X 12" designer paper and 11 card bases.  Make sure you have some ribbons or embellishments to match.  
  2. Use the template below to cut your designer paper; cutting both at once. 
  3. Grab some scraps of White and coordinating colors for punches/greetings. 
  4. Cut 4 pieces of layering card stock at 3 1/4" X 5" and one 3 3/4" square for the bonus card. (I used White)
  5. Choose a stamp set & ink to coordinate. 
  6. Or use the new Share Sunshine Covid-19 digital download like I did for my greetings. No stamping needed!  You can purchase that here. https://covid19.stampinup.com/products/giving-back-us-ca Price: $12.00 USD
  7. Come back here tomorrow night so we can stamp together.
  8. Or use this link to join via Zoom. *see tips on zoom meetings below  https://us02web.zoom.us/j/88215870191

I chose to use the new Ornate Garden designer paper for my cards.  Anything goes but a non directional design is best; try not to choose a paper that needs to be north and south.

  • Hey Girlfriend with a paper strips background!


    Coloring these sweet girls can be intimidating but not with our Blends markers!  Look at her! 

    I will admit that my friend & team member Audrey colored this one.  She shared a bunch of stamped & colored girls with me and I've made a few cards with them.  If you look closely you can see the changes in color hue that gives great dimension. Such as her skirt. See how the outside is darker than the inside?  Same with her cheeks. 

    The Blends markers are fabulous tools!  

    I had a bunch of colored card stock strips laying on my desk and decided to use them for a background.  I cut some into thinner strips to add interest. I did not measure; they vary in widths which adds some interest & fun.

    I adhered them to a 3 1/2" X 4 3/4" piece of card stock. Then I trimmed off the excess and added the entire piece to a piece of 3 5/8" X 4 7/8" piece of Black CS before I added it to the White card base.  

    This stamp set will not be carried over; it will retire in June.  You can see it here.
