My Newest OSW
I have not yet put the cards together.. they are just sitting here waiting for adhesive!
#2 Could also be used for a Cris Cross Card or even 2 of them using only one piece of DP and a solid.
#8 is for a door sort of card (I'll really have to show a pic of what I mean) or if you use a 2 sided paper use them with opposite sides up, I used #11 with it
#3 cut diagonally to do a quilt looking card, or as I did... took #3 and #4 using 4 squares on one card and 2 on the other.
#10 depending on the DP you choose it could go in any direction
If you try this template, I'll try to get these done soon to show. I'd love to see what you come up with. Leave a link to your gallery!
Thank you to my online friend Vikki for showing me this wonderful and very fun way of making a lot of cards with just ONE SHEET of dp. Here's the link. I will be for sure making more...in fact I just ordered some more DP to do my Christmas cards this way! How cool!!!!!!! You can check out my gallery for all the details! Thanks for looking!

If you need help understanding the French PDF just ask me I will be delighted to help. I am only learning on SCS, I am not good enough at stamping to help but translation is a thing I am good at. So no hesitation.

I have made several OSW packets of cards for gifts for my family and they all love them. Mae Collins blog is what inspired me to start making these.
Two years ago April we went to the Oregon Coast for my spring break and the weather was so horrible that I made about 5 sets in the 6 days we were there. I love making these because they are easy and using theme related that way.
Here is a sample of some I have done in the past: OSW Swirls by lindahur - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers
Thanks all of you for your hard work. I have just discovered the OSW and I love them. Now I can finally cut into that 12 x 12 cardstock that I have been hoarding and afraid of messing up. Thank YOU!!!! Vikki you are awesome and we really appreciate all your hard work on this!!!
I went to the challenge post you linked but it won't let me reply or anything. It says I don't have privileges? Do I need to be a member of a group to join the challenge? I was hoping to find out how to join the challenge, what I needed to do.

I'm so sorry !I had no idea it was in the SWAP Section.
It's not a true swap, you keep the cards, it is just a motivational challenge just like the SCS daily's.
The templates she gave as examples are all on my thread here.
I am going to try to get to mine tomorrow. I've been working on cards for SWAPS but now have to wait on an order of paper for that so I have some free time to work on this. I'll post when I get them finished, but hopefully it will be this week.
I just did this OSW, I am still working on the template. Check back here next week I should have it all typed up by then, sorry it only makes 6 cards though. At least they aren't your standard A2 cards
