Step-By-Step Wednesday - Hello Spring!!

Hello there!  This installment of the Step-by-Step Wednesday is to show how to create a set of 4 cards using one sheet of 6x6 paper!

The Challenge this week at Cuttin' and Stampin' is to Welcome Spring and what better way than to get your hands dirty and get outside in the garden!  I've created 4 cards to be included in a silent auction gardening basket at a local school's Spring Fling.  The paper and embellishment collection I'm using is called Front Porch and brought to you by Pebbles.  The stamps are from Paper Smooches and called Green Thumb.  All of these fabulous products can be found at Cuttin' and Stampin' Scrappy Supplies.

I did a quick search on Pinterest for a measurement chart and found this one at Poetic Artistry. 

The example uses one sheet of double sided paper, however, this paper is single sided so I'm using two sheets to get the same effect.  The sketch showing how to use the pieces for each card is also attached.

Now to get cutting!  I did not follow the order on the cutting template.  I went on my own and labeled each piece to be sure I had them all!

Then I started layering and embellishing!

Remember to check out Cuttin' and Stampin' Scrappy Supplies for all these great items!  Also don't forget to enter this weeks challenge to Welcome Spring!
