Hydrangea Hill Double Wonder Cards ~ Rick Adkins

Hello and welcome to my blog; today I am going to share with you the cards that I made last night during my weekly Facebook Live. Last night I made 11 cards using two sheets of 6" x 12" pieces, some matching cardstock, a little ribbon and a few more supplies. Here's a look at the cards I made.

Double Wonder Cards:

Double Wonders cards are a great way to use up some of your supplies and puts a different twist on the traditional One Sheet Wonders. With the Double Wonder Cards you make eleven cards from two sheets of 6" x 12" pieces of coordinating designer series paper. I picked two sheets of the Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper to do my cards with last night during my weekly Facebook Live. I then picked my coordinating cardstock to make my card bases and layering pieces along with my accessories.

1st Group of Cards:

For the first cut for the Double Wonder Cards you take both pieces of your designer series paper and place them in the Paper Trimmer, making sure that if you have any pattern paper that is directional you have it facing the right way, and you are going to cut it at 4 1/2" x 6". From those two piece of designer series paper you are going to cut them to 1 1/2" x 3". You will also need four pieces of matching cardstock for your layering mats that are 3 1/4" x 5". I used the Everyday Label Punch and the same stamp from the Hydrangea Haven Stamp Set for all the sentiments on my cards today.

2nd Group of Cards:

For the second set of four cards you will need four card bases, for stamped and punched sentiments and some accessories. You are going to cut your remaining pieces of Hydrangea Hill Designer Series Paper to 4" x 5 1/4". So, cut both pieces at 4" x 6" then turn it and cut at 5 1/4". From that you are going to cut these pieces down again to 1" x 5 1/4" strips. You will add one additional score line to each of your card bases at 1 1/4" and add your designer series paper.

3rd Set of Cards:

For the third set of cards you are going to need two card bases, and two punched sentiments. Take the remaining 3" x 6" piece of designer series paper and cut them to 3 1/2" x 2 1/4". Add these to the card fronts along with the 4" x 3/4" pieces left over from the pervious set of cards.

Last Card:

For the last card your are going to take the last card base and last sentiment you have along with the left over designer series paper. With the designer series paper you are going to cut it in half at 1 3/4" to make four pieces. Attach the four rectangles to the card base and add the sentiment.
