Heartfelt Creations - One Sheet Wonder Cards & Box

Happy Wednesday everyone!

Today I have a fun gift idea using Heartfelt Creations designer papers, stamps and dies!  A while back I created a "one sheet wonder" for a 6" x 6" piece of pattern paper.  I loved how it came out, so I decided to do one with HC's beautiful papers!  Here are the 6 cards I made.

I love how these all coordinate together, it makes such a pretty gift!  I also made a gift box to go with these using HC's stamps.

If you're not familiar with "one sheet wonders", basically you use a piece of designer paper (or make your own), cut it into pieces using a pattern and make cards with the pieces.  I made the pattern for these and posted it in February on this post here  if you would like to read more about it or try making one yourself for a gift!

For lots more inspiration, please visit the Heartfelt Creations' Blog to see what all the talented designers have created for you this week!
