One Sheet Wonder Valentine's Cards

 So, last month, I created a set of Christmas card using a one-sheet wonder template.  You can see those cards here is you so desire.  It was so much fun, and such a great way to use up an entire sheet of 12 x 12 paper, that I decided to do a Valentine's Day set this month:  I posted my first card at the beginning of the week.  Here are my next 5 (I have 6 left to go):

Obviously, I used the same patterned paper for all of them (all from one sheet) and images from the same sugar Pea Designs set.  I added some different black accents to most of them.  The first card uses some black pearls as well as a black die cut "love" that was a leftover from some bridal shower cupcake toppers I made a while ago.  Both the "love" and the gold glitter heart were from the shower.  I die cut a tag and a little bow and added some ribbon to finish everything off.

Card #2 uses a different set of images from the same stamp set.  This time I heat embossed the sentiments with white embossing powder on black card stock.  I added some die cut hearts that I covered with glossy accents and used them as embellishments.
Card #3 is my Valentine's Day card for my hubby!  I love the sentiment paired with this cute little peanut butter and jelly couple!  It's so fun and sweet.  And my husband still loves peanut butter and jelly (specially strawberry), so this is perfect.  I did a little stenciling with a sun ray stencil and added some more glossy accents covered hearts as embellishments.
For Card #4 I actually cut one of the strips from the template into smaller strips to go down the side of the card.
Card #5 is probably my favorite of the bunch.  I used an embossing folder for the background and I just love the texture it gives.  I added a die cut border and used some of the little leftover heart pieces to embellish the image panel.
Which one is your favorite?  Have you ever given the one-sheet wonder technique a try?

These are all absolutely fab! I love the idea of making a selection of cards either from one collection, or one patterned paper sheet, but I don't get round to it very often!

Thanks for playing along with us at MAWTT,
