Hello stampers and happy Monday to you. Today I am sharing the Double Wonder Technique. Using this sketch for a cutting pattern you can easily and quickly make a large stack of cards. What a fantastic way to showcase your favourite designer series paper! Let’s take a look.
Double Wonder Technique
The name Double Wonder is a bit of a spoof on One Sheet Wonder where you stamp an entire sheet of either 12 x 12 paper or 8 1/2″ by 11″ paper. You then cut this paper up into different sized strips and panels and make coordinating cards. With the Double Wonder Technique you use half sheets of 12 x 12 designer series paper. You can choose just two sheets, but I like a little more variety so I usually use three sheets. Here is the sketch provided by Julie Davison, a demonstrator from the USA.
Here you can see the easy directions for making these cards. I am going to be making a step by step pictorial tutorial guide as well, but that may be a little while. Gerard is coming on Thursday and as you well know, my focus will shift a little then!!
The Results of my Double Wonder Experience
I decided to take a picture of my Double Wonder cards. It always looks so impressive to see a large amount of coordinating cards!!

Stepping it up a Notch
You can make these cards even fancier by using embossing folders on your card base. I really do like how this one turned out. When the card was put together I thought there was just too much “vanilla”. I used one of the narrower embossing folders to emboss the card front and it turned out beautifully. What do you think?
A Few Sweet Talk Cards
Because it is Valentine’s Day today, I thought it would be fitting to make a few cards using the adorable Sweet Talk patterned paper. Here they are!
More “Double” Cards
I did a search of my blog for more Double Wonder cards, but I could not find any. Instead I found lots of other things involving the word “double”. Check out this link to be entertained!
