Wow nylene you are fast. Can't wait ti see them. When I made the theme beach or sea I was thinking about the dies I have but just realized that I don't have any pp to go with that😆. I blame this on the heat, weeks of 110+ start to fry the brain. Hopefully I can find something at joann's. |

azcrafty, I didn't do a beach theme because I had already started the zebras. I used 12x12 paper instead of 6x6 pads just because I had it already.  Zebra Birthday

azcrafty , thanks for posting the sheetload challenge. And nylene , I love the colors and your cute zebras. I like my end result, but I totally spaced out and picked three really different papers just because I loved them. I forgot they need to complement each other and they didn't. So then I used the flip side, or even the same paper, or other paper.

jjpeapea your cards came out really nice. I like your idea to make different ones, especially because of the 6x6 paper it makes it easier. How do you like that Whale done stamp set from SU? I'm going back and forth on it. Thank you for playing and showing your fun cards.

I used the whale, seahorses and coral on some club cards. I did not get the coordinating punch. But I LOVE the coordinating paper. Just looking at it takes me to a peaceful ocean place. |

Yes that paper is gorgeous, everyone is using that and not the stamps so its hard to make the decision. I might leave it for a later purchase. Thank you for answering 😊 |

jjpeapea, I love your cards. I think that was a great idea to use the other sides if they fit better. I think they are really pretty and I love the variety of the images you added with your sentiment. The papers are so pretty and I love the jellyfish. One thing I really like about Sheetload is that you can take the basic idea and do whatever you want with it. It helps me get started.

This is one of my favorite sketches!
I did these this weekend. I did others, but these were my favorite! I think I made 14 cards total.

gmcwife1 I really like the pp you used and the tag you used for your sentiments its really neat. Are those dies or a cut file? Like the little banner peeking out from behind the tag. So much fun little details.

So much fun little details. Thank you  I took advantage of this being a 6X6 paper sketch and went through my single sheets and put some sets together. The sentiment is on a Gina Marie die. I love the shape and that the set mats really well. The banner behind is a TE sentiment strip. I love my dies since I’m horrible at hand cutting anything  I think this is my new favorite sketch. One of 4 or 5 that I love to use a lot |

azcrafty I really like your cards. You did a great job coordinating papers and your die cuts are special. Since I have so many sheetload cards, I wrote short "hello, wish you a good day" style notes in them and they will be delivered to the local care home. So thanks again for taking the time to post a sheetload challenge.

I made this cards so my grandma who lives in a assisted living can give her care givers a card to express her gratitude. |

Somehow even though I was reading on this board I totally missed this thread until today. Not that I've had any time for crafting yet anyway!
I love all the cards posted so far. The Sheetload sketches are such a nice way to get started and they work perfectly for cards to donate or share. I will get caught up on my other life projects and come back and take a proper look and see if I can turn some paper into cards.

azcrafty, I wrote a post about how pretty I think your cards are and how nice the shells, starfish and coral look against your sentiment. I must have posted it when the internet went out again last week because it didn't post. Didn't want you to think I just ignored your pretty cards. I just saw a Comcast truck go by...TV, phone and internet was out again yesterday so I'm hoping to get the computer stuff done today before it happens again. I hope they have it fixed by Sunday for our Virtual Cousin Camp. We had to postpone it last weekend because of Comcast. Over a week with spotty service has not made me happy. Without internet I pulled out one of the sheetload sheets I had printed and cut the paper for a few more cards. I had to wait til it came back on to make some little sailboats with my Silhouette. I'll try to finish and post them today or tomorrow.

I have everything cut for another 9 or so cards for this months sketch. Now to just get time to put them together.
I also have some word dies that I want to use as my ‘sentiment’ on the batch after these.

I hope your internet held up. Thanks for your sweet comments. The internet held up and we had a great time together. We had 8 grandchildren and a couple of parents on Zoom. I think the kids had a fun time showing off their creations. They voted to do this again if we can't get physically together. gmcwife1, you are really on a roll. I look forward to seeing what you have made. |
