I just can't believe it is March already. Where did February go? Here is a new SheetLoad for this month. youtu.be/7fJOFmr5w8EIf you are collecting points you can pick up an extra 10 points if your cards are for kids. joblackford posted on the donation board that Bearly Art Glue is collecting cards this month for foster kids,Cards for Cubs, if you send the cards you made with this month's SheetLoad to them you can count an extra 20 points. I already made a challenge to double the points for cards made this month and donated. So this can really give you lots of points. I hope you'll play with us and consider donating your cards to CardsforCubs. I hope this is okay grammadee. |

I finally got to watch the videos. I like how you used the stars in place of the border punch piece. It looks like a good design this month.
Reminds me, I need to make some birthday cards for my nephew to give to his friends and I'm coming up blank for the moment on what supplies I have that suit 11 year olds.

Here is my March 2021 Sheetload. I was determined to use my 6x6 papers, but they are just not as efficient as using 12x12. I only did 8 cards. Because I used different papers, I kind of individualized each one rather than cranking them out. I did like the sketch. Now to use all those scraps....  |

I love all the cards made this month for Sheetload. I think I have left love in the sharing thread on each of your designs. Here are mine. I won the panda stamp at a Card Club event a couple of years ago and this was the first time I used it. I made a total of 14 cards.  Panda Happy Birthday |

nylene your cards are super cute. I remember that panda, is so precious and I really love how you used diecuts for the balloons. Excellent idea. Thank you for playing and sharing. I always look forward to seeing your take on these challenges. As always cuteness overload 😍.

I made a winter/holiday set of 13 with some Carta Bella Snow Much Fun supplies using the Sheetload as a starting point. I had already cut down the papers into A2 size so I didn't follow the instructions exactly but it worked pretty well with not too much waste (although I still have tons of these papers left to use). I used up as much of the sticker sheet as I possibly could, so some of the cards are a bit random, lol.  March sharing by jo.blackford, on Flickr  March sharing by jo.blackford, on Flickr |

Awesome cards joblackford. I struggle with stickers ,just can't find a way to use them. This inspires me to try them with the SheetLoads. Love the colors in this kit. |

I find the larger they are the easier for me to make use of them, and I prefer thicker cardstock stickers. Some of the smaller ones I sometimes manage to build into collages on my finger and then stick to a circle before I place them. But die cuts are a lot easier to work with. I had originally planned to use these supplies for scrapbooking. |

I had originally planned to use these supplies for scrapbooking. I think my problem with them that they have a white border around them, I even fussy cut ephemeras because of the white border. I guess I'm so used to die cuts with out borders and thats why I struggle with the white borders. I have a box full of stickers so I better get used to it and start using them 😊 |

joblackford, your cards are amazing. I really like the way you started with the Sheetload and then branched out from there. Your embellishments look great. You do great things with stickers/die cuts.

Posted on the twelve card thread as well... sorry for the repeat. I used the last of my Bloom Street cut apart sheets to make 12 cards using a slightly adapted March 2021 Sheetload sketch. It was really satisfying to mostly follow the instructions and get these done quickly and without a lot of thinking, a good warm up for making more freeform cards later in the day. I did these as side fold cards so I centered the panels instead of having them come down from the top. A couple have thinner bottom pieces with a gap instead of a trim/border piece because I was using scraps. And obvs no circles! This design worked well with 3x4 cut apart cards.
