I promise you - it took less time to make the cards than it did to blog about them! Paper mache rocks for Hayden's Shakespeare Club performance have been taking up my time - but all finished with now, thank goodness (and pretty realistic looking they were, if I do say so myself!)
So back to the vintage vogue one sheet wonder... This lot of cards really were quick and easy. Sponged edges, crimped card strips, layers of card, stampin' dimensionals to pop some of the elements up, and a quick stamped sentiment (or a selection of those things!)
The second card was super basic - a strip of the stamped one sheet wonder card matted on some perfect plum card that had been crimped and a quick sentiment stamped in coordinating ink. I could have added so much more, but sometimes it is nice to keep it kind of simple (and if I remember correctly, I was due at the bus stop right about then!)
Of course, the plan was also to use every last little scrap of my original stamped one sheet wonder card (I still had some left after these cards), so the rest of that strip I had cut for the last card, was cut into squares to make this one. Originally I had been planning on having another longer strip but with a different card orientation to the last one, but somewhere along the way it transformed into this. But that is what the playing is all about - making stuff up as you go along, and having fun doing it!
