OSW 3 and 4 Bold Music

Today's post is a continuation of my take on Jessica Taylor's One Sheet Wonder template which can be found here:  https://www.inkitupwithjessica.com/how-to-make-one-sheet-wonder-cards/

For both cards, I used the 2" x 5 1/4 " pieces from the template. The stamp sets I chose are both retired.  I bought them a couple years ago with great intentions, then never used them.  Have you ever done that?  I bet you have!

For this first card, I chose Life Music from Fun Stampers Journey.  I stamped the guitar/tree with Pumpkin Bread* and Fresh Forest* inks.  I love how they blend to make a third color.

Instructions:

• Make the card base from a piece of 5 1/2" x 8 1/2"  Banana Cream cardstock*
• Mat the 2" x 5 1/4" patterned paper on a 2 1/8" x 5 4/8" piece of Chambray Shirt cardstock*
• Cut a 2 1/2" x 3 7/8" panel from  Butter Cream cardstock* 
• Ink the bottom half of the stamp with Pumpkin Bread ink* and the top with Fresh Forest Ink*, overlapping the inks in the middle and stamp it onto the Butter Cream panel.  To make stamping easier I used Tonic Studios - Tim Holtz - Stamp Platform*
• Mat the stamped panel on a piece of 2 5/8" x 4" Limeade Splash cardstock*
• Splatter the card base and the stamped panel with Electric Lime Silk* and Cool Pool Silk*
• Adhere the matted patterned paper strip to the left side of the card base, leaving about 1/8" border around the top, bottom and left sides.
• Pop up the stamped panel on Journey Foam Squares* in the center of the card.

For my second card, I used the Be Strong ATS from Fun Stampers Journey.  I have a growing pile of backgrounds that I've made using various techniques and I found a watercolor one that went well with the colors in the striped paper. I used it for the background for the lion and cat.

Instructions:

• Make the card base from a piece of 5 1/2" x 8 1/2"  Banana Cream cardstock*
• Mat the 2" x 5 1/4" patterned paper on a 2 1/8" x 5 4/8" piece of Chambray Shirt cardstock*
• Use the Fiddle Leaf Embossing Folder* to emboss the front of the card.
• Adhere the pattened paper panel along the bottom edge of the card base, leaving a narrow border around the left, right and bottom edges.
• Cut a 2 12" x 3" panel from your chosen background and stamp the image with Black Licorice ink.
• Mat the stamped panel on a piece of 2 5/8" x 3 1/8" Limeade Splash cardstock*
• Splatter the panel and card front with Electric Lime Silk* and Cool Pool Silk*
• Stamp the sentiment on a small piece of Butter Cream cardstock* 
• Fussy cut around the outside of the sentiment and mat it on a piece of Limeade Splash cardstock*
• Pop the lion and cat image up on Journey Foam Squares* and position it about 1/2" in from the right edge of the card.
• Add a Journey Foam Square* to the left side of the sentiment and position it so that it overlaps the stamped panel.
