Idea for 1 hour lunch

[april0415]

I would like to get some of my colleages together to make a quick card, they always say that my cards and ideas are awesome, but I do not know what kind of card that we can make in 1 hour with eating lunch too. Any ideas?

Well, if they like your cards, pick a card that they do like and make something similar. To speed things up, you could have the paper, ribbon etc already cut. Avoid embossing or things that take too long to dry. Have your example (or two) out, demo it quickly then pass supplies around the table--unless you have space to set up stations. Have fun.

When I read your title, my first thought was... PIZZA! However, to answer your question, if you have everything pre-cut and pre-scored, use just dye ink... it shouldn't take a whole hour to do a couple of cards. I'd suggest using some wheels for backgrounds, pop in an ink cartridge and they can just pass from person to person, that really speeds things up!

Check out Kristina Werner's blog. I think most of her cards could easily be done in a very short time. I'll be uploading a card I cased from her later today...will post a link when I do.

Maybe a One Sheet Wonder, to speed it up is bring a few similar sets/ colors and just use white/vanilla card bases. Also just draw out the cutting lines on the sheets pre-stamping them, that way you can cut out the pieces with scissors instead of all waiting around a paper trimmer. If you leave out the putzy stuff like ribbon and glitter you should be good to go I know I've done osw's in under an hour.

Wonderful, great idea.

Do a one layer card, ink to paper perhaps w/a little coloring. Easy to do in an hour.
