Your challenge is to make at least 4 cards using the same papers but different sentiments. Once you are done you'll have a small stash ready and waiting for you to use. The sentiments may be stamped or printed. 5 extra points if you make matching envelopes.  IMG_0638 by CLAUDIA LOVELESS, on Flickr |

gramma I need some sendable cards, so perfect! Quick question: by make an envelope do you mean create/cut one like challenge #1 or do you mean decorate and stamp an envelope to coordinate?

I have made 5 cards using 5 different papers and one card stock. I use really robin stamps 2 sheets of 6x6 doubled pattern paper to make them I did stamp 5 different sentiments on the cards. I didn’t make envelopes as I have a ton of this size envelope. I make decorate some later but usually I don’t. The pattern paper I used was 12x12 but I used 4 6x6 sections and cut them out as directed. I used some Prima flowers, decorative pearl dots from Dollar Tree and sentiment stamps from Stampin Up. Really Robin Stamps 6x6 double sheet cards  |

I just realized from your title, that the cards were supposed to have different birthday sentiments. I may try this one again, especially since I do need to improve my stash of birthday cards.

katiekaty your cards are very pretty with the delicate flowers and then the pearls. Lots of texture and dimension. scrapnnana OOO the blue and yellow is a favorite color combination and I love all the time and care in your cards - the matting on the banner, the circle, and the sentiment and your faux stitches. Beautiful. angel97701 Perfect for Christmas. I love that stamp set with one word bold and the other small and cursive. justjac so pretty! I'm glad you went with the actual vellum for the Sheetload. Doing the Sheetload is on my to-do list. The tearing makes me nervous but yours look great. Your birthday cards are so festive and cute.

gramma, thank you for the challenge. Your cards are so beautiful and professional. I left you love in the gallery. jjpeapea, I love the stitched double butterflies. I also love that you have 3 of them earmarked to make someone have a great day. That butterfly paper is so pretty and you have used the perfect accent color. Lovely cards. katiekaty, your cards are gorgeous. I love the deep rich colors you have put together. I have a hard time mixing patterns and colors, so when I see it done well I am so impressed. These will really make someone’s day. scrapnnana, your cards are beautiful. I love the design and all the stitched details. Those papers are perfect together. I love the shape of your flowers. Are they from a die? angel97701 and justjac, you have love in the gallery. Here are mine: I have little boy birthdays coming up so I made mine "little boy cute". I had scraps still sitting around from last month's Sketchtember and decided to see if I could use them up and not have to file them away. LOL  4 Monkey Birthday cards No twist. I forgot to decorate envelopes.

nylene So cute, those monkeys made me smile. Scraps you say? The way the paper colors compliment and match your image colors looks like you spent lots of time shopping specifically. iowagirl50147 how cheerful and cute, perfect for birthdays.

angel97701, I love how you varied your sentiments. Did you create them with a printer? justjac, your paper tearing looks great (not one of my strong points), and I love the vellum with the ribbon accent underneath. nylene, your little boy birthday cards are adorable. azcrafty, I don’t blame you for splitting your sheetload cards between the two challenges. I commented on your cards in the other challenge, but I hadn’t noticed the stamped envelope. It looks great. iowagirl50147, your cards are bright and colorful. The cupcake and doggy sentiments are really cute.
