OSW 1 and 2 Get Well and Go on an Adventure!

I recently stumbled across one sheet wonders.  I know they've been around for a long time, but for whatever reason I overlooked them before. They're great for getting me out of a creative rut. I also like the idea of creating a whole set of cards with the same color scheme. The series I'm featuring here is based on Jessica Taylor's One Sheet Wonder, which you can find here: https://www.inkitupwithjessica.com/how-to-make-one-sheet-wonder-cards/

I chose a blue/green/yellow striped paper for my one sheet and paired it with Limeade Splash*,  Banana Cream* and Chambray Shirt* card stock.  I always need "guy" cards and this color combo should fit the bill.

These first two cards are made with the 4" x 5 1/4' panels from the large sheet.

I'm almost out of get well cards so for this first one, I chose the Get Well Stamp Set*.  This silly chicken is bound to bring a smile.

Instructions:

• Make a card base from a 5 1/2" x 8" piece of Limeade Splash cardstock*
• Center and adhere the 4" x 5 1/4" striped panel on the front of the card base.
• Stamp the chicken and the sentiment on a 3" x 4 1/4" Banana Cream* panel with Black Licorice ink*  Color the chicken, mug and saucer with Journey Color Burst Pencils* 03, 11, 15, 21, 27, 46 and 48.
• Mat the stamped panel on a 3 3/8" x 4 5/8" Limeade Splash* panel.
• Wrap a piece of Whip Cream Journey Thread* around the panel and tie it in a bow.
• Pop the stamped, matted panel up on Journey Foam Squares* and center it on the front of the card.

For my second card, I chose the Begin Adventure ATS* and paired it with a watercolor background I made some time ago that went well with the paper and the theme.  Since this is sky-themed, I wanted a blue card base so I chose Chambray Shirt cardstock*.

Instructions:

• Make a card base from a 5 1/2" x 8" piece of Chambray Shirt cardstock*.
• Center and adhere the 4" x 5 1/4" striped panel on the front of the card base.
• Create a background on a Color Splash Watercolor Sheet using Lovely Blue Liquid Color*.
• After the background is dry, trim it to 2 7/8 x 4 1/8" (or just use Whip Cream cardstock*)
• Stamp the airplane at an angle on the background panel using Black Licorice ink*
• Stamp the sentiment on a 1/2" wide strip of light blue paper with Black Licorice ink*.  Trim the ends.
• Mat the stamped airplane panel on a 3" x 4 1/4" piece of Chambray Shirt cardstock*.
• Adhere the airplane panel at an angle onto the front of the card so that the airplane wings are more or less parallel with the top edge of the card.
• Curl the sentiment strip so it's wavy and pop it up on  Journey Foam Squares*  below the airplane.
