JustRite, a One Sheet Wonder and a Sketch

Published by rainy at 12:11 am under Cards, JustRite, OSW (One Sheet Wonder), Projects, Rainy Day Sketches, Templates

Probably my biggest addiction, even more than collecting actual stamps, is designer paper. PAPER!!! I love it!! But I find that I don’t use it because then it would be gone. D’oh. So I have begun to quarter my 12″X12″ sheets. This way I have FOUR… YES FOUR pieces of paper. I can let my little hoarding self use one or two of these pieces and still have some left!! Woohoo!! Well it works for me. LOL!!

So that is where I started today, with a quartered piece of 12″X12″ designer paper.  To make sure that there was absolutely no waste of my precious paper, I created another 6″X6″ One Sheet Wonder (OSW) template.  I just love making these.  They also work, of course, for all of the 6″X6″ pads of designer paper available now.  And I created a sketch (which I almost followed!  lol) that can be used with the pieces from the OSW that will make into four cards.  Here’s the template for the OSW.

I needed a couple of masculine birthday cards and a couple of wedding cards.  Since this was a double sided patterned paper, it worked out perfectly with the stripes on one side and the blue toile like floral on the other!  Plus my 10 Designer Centers & Borders from JustRite had everything I needed for sentiments all in one set!

Here is the sketch.

If you decide to give this OSW/Sketch design a try, please let me know.  It would be so much fun to see what you have created!

    What a great idea to quarter the sheets. And a space saver too. These cards are neat and I’m going to play when I get home from work tonight.

    Thank you for all the inspiration and information, it takes time to put together such a post, I know. I love these colours together and the texture combinations too.

    You crack me up, Susan - quartering your papers so you can actually use them!! lol Good for you, though, figuring a way to part with some of it. ;P

    Love your sketch, and your cards are very pretty!

    Great idea! And I thought I was the only paper collector — glad to hear I’m not the only one.

  11. # Tanyaon 25 Mar 2009 at 7:57 pm

    Yes actually, I will use this! LOL!
    I was going to ask if you mind if I use (in a class) your template you posted previously with the 6×6 sheet of DP. I like this too! :)

    Plus these are great cards!!!

    Oh Wow … this is awesome! Thanks so much for doing and sharing your OSW!! Your cards are wonderful! I too am a paper freak … there is no way I’ll ever use all the paper I have but I still keep buying more. I love the idea of quartering my 12 x 12’s … perfect idea!!!

  29. # Dawn B.on 30 Mar 2009 at 6:18 pm

    I have the same problem. I hoard that dp. I am starting to use it everyday now. I love the fact that you are quartering your sheets. It would make it easier to store too. Great project. TFS

    Oh great set of cards and I like the sketch. See I don’t have tons of paper on purpose, I buy it and usually don’t know what to do with it so it sits here. LOL I am so used to solid papers and I try to use it a lot more, and I am getting better. :0) not that you wanted to know all that either. I always give you way too much info. lol Hugs…

  33. # Sharon Harniston 03 Apr 2009 at 6:19 pm

    I so love how you designed the cards with the one sheet wonder. I am also hooked on the Justrite stampers, but have an awful time getting a clean, solid image. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks!

  38. # Zoe Farmeron 30 Apr 2009 at 5:55 am

    Wonderful!! Just love your cards. Now I can use some of that 6X6 paper I have been hoarding!!

  39. # Tamion 30 Apr 2009 at 10:15 am

    Love this template and am so thankful you are sharing. Your cards are all stunning and I know they will be gratefully received!

    These are great!! Thank you so much for the template. Is there another template for the matting solid colors for use behind the design paper?
