Yes, I know it's fall, and the weather is changing and all that jazz, but you know me.. I HAVE to stamp with flowers all year long!! :) I am super excited to share this "one sheet wonder" Penned & Painted flower card idea with you!
Aren't these so pretty!? I used a Bright color combo of black, white, Melon Mambo and Cucumber Crush for these cards.
I started out by stamping a full 8-1/2" x 11" sheet of Whisper White with these pretty flowers and then cutting the sheet into 4×4 pieces and 4×3 pieces until my sheet was used up. Each sheet will yield 6 pieces for 6 cards as shown in these photos.
Your Choice!
Use this stamp set with our without the outline image … I selected black for the outline but you could also create a more subtle look with a different outline color, OR don't use the outline at all!
Which one do you like best? I love them both!
Look at all the pieces in this set! You can use it in so many different ways. I used 6 of the pieces for the flowers and leaves, plus the dot on the HOPE card below.
The striking black accents above are White Perfect Accents (#138416) colored with a black Sharpie marker!!
I mounted my stamped flower pieces onto folded Melon Mambo and Whisper White cards, and accented them with black and white or Cucumber Crush and white Designer papers from the big paper stacks on page 174 in the annual catalog.
Instead of stamped sentiments, I added die cut greetings from the Sunshine Wishes thinlit set (#141489). Each one was die cut with Melon Mambo cardstock and added to the card with Multipurpose glue.
In keeping with the color scheme, I added either 1/8" Melon Mambo ribbon, or the 5/8" Cucumber Crush ribbon to each card.
I wanted my sunshine die cut to stand out on this card so I put it on top of a piece of vellum! What a neat touch.. it turned out perfect!

Wow, love the color combination! Thank you for sharing the template for your one sheet wonder – it’s nice to sit down and create your own “designer paper” and then make sure you use up every last scrap. I think I will make up some sets of cards based on this template to give out as gifts this year, thanks for the inspiration!!
Great ideas. Love both with and without the black outline. I love the idea of stamping the full page. Thank you for sharing.
Those flowers are gorgeous both with and without the outline. I love those colors. I, too, use flowers all year long.
Nothing wrong with flowers all year long!
I love the idea of creating a whole sheet of those colorful flowers. Will try that soon. They are beautiful.
Good morning Patty,,,,, I LOVE these cards. I have never tried the one sheet wonder technique but I will now. I LOVE with or without the outline. I need to get this set out and make some cards before my CHRISTMAS stuff comes. So anxious for it to come, all 3 orders,lol…. Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful cards. Have a great day Patty.
Love these cards. I love both versions, with and without the outline stamp, but the outline image sets apart this stamp set from all of the other 2 and 3 step sets as such a great way to get the pen-and-ink technique without having to actually use a pen.
Just got my set and am anxious to use it. TFS!
I am with you, I love flowers and love to stamp them all year. Great idea to stamp the one sheet wonder with Pen and Painted stamp set. I like it with the outline. Nice cards. Thanks for sharing.
