Hello September.... Its my favorite month and no, it's not just because its my birthday month,but because the leaves will start to change their colors and there is a different smell in the air. Unfortunately where I live now there are no fall changes, but I'm hoping to go up north for a weekend in October. What is your favorite fall activity? This month's SheetLoad sketch youtu.be/KFfwFTDAVF8And process video youtu.be/4IJp-2IkD5cI love this sketch. For extra 10 points make your cards fall themed. |

Such cool cards! I think the witch is my favorite. I love a good bold die cut.
It's my birthday month too but since I grew up down under I still think of September as spring - my mum took a photo standing in the daffodils just before I was born.
This is an interesting Sheetload. I'm curious if people like the sketch or if the unusual size and tent topper will be offputting. I need to get some more minislim envelopes! I read a comment that someone found colorful #6 3/4 envelopes at Walmart but I don't shop there. Might have to try Target.

Wow, your cards are great! I like all three designs.
I have trouble envisioning mini slimline designs, so I'm eager to try these.
SLoC is wonderful for the variety - mostly regular A2, with some other sizes or fun-folds to spice things up; some small-batch sheetloads, some for a dozen cards (like this month); some using 12x12, some using 6x6... Love it!

These are so cute! I was just gifted a whole bunch of patterned paper, so I’ll have to give these a whirl with some of it  |

I liked how the cards were a little different with the size and topper. Yours are so well done azcrafty , pulling various elements together so smoothly. I wanted to use my new Cricut pens to draw, and I wanted a fall theme. I only made 6.  |

jjpeapea these cards are so cute. I can't believe that the Cricut draw the images. The images are adorable and did you use the machine to cut the honeycomb out?

This was a fun set of cards! I don't have an oval die, so had to make do with a circle. Got to use an old Pink Paisley 6x6 pad of Halloween papers, and some old Doodlebug stickers.   |

MDscrapaholic what a fun set of cards. I like it with the circle shapes and they work well with the stickers.Love that you used some old papers and stickers up. And your mat matches the cards perfectly too 😆.

The Cricut electronic cutting machine has images you can load and draw by putting a pen in the accessory clamp. |

I did the ovals, scallops, leaves, words and honeycomb with the Cricut. To be honest I was inspired by all the layers, elements and textures of your cards. |

I am slow getting started on the challenge this month. Thanks for hosting it, azcrafty. Your Halloween cards are really cute. The witch is my favorite. I really like that witchy poo die! It fits so perfectly. jjpeapea, I really like your little girl jumping in the leaves. Very pretty Fall Cards. The addition of the honeycomb cut was a great idea with the little stamped (?) bee. Were all the images drawn with your Cricut pen? Love them. MDscrapaholic, your cards are so classy. I love the Doodlebug images and the bright Halloween colors. I really like the circle instead of the oval. Beautiful cards. The small slimline is never my favorite style of card, but when I found a bunch of print and cut images together in Design Store for $.50, I couldn't resist getting them and using them on my cards. I usually paper piece my images, but these were from EP and were so bright and pretty so I went with them. I cut the pieces for these earlier in the month but just got a minute to put them together. I was half finished when I came to some dark green cut pieces. Silly me! I forgot to put the darker mat on about half of them. I used glue so knew I couldn't take them apart. So some have the matching center mat and the rest don't.  Sept 2022 Fall Hello |

I’m going to concede that this month’s design wasn’t my favorite and I’d prefer to make A2 cards so (with less than a week to go in the month) I’m going to skip this one for now. Lol. I like what everyone else has made I’ve been busy finishing off a bunch of Halloween cards. I used a Sheetload months ago to make about 25 card bases but I didn’t have images or sentiments ready for them. I realized the other day that they needed to get finished and sent to charity this week! So I’ve been scrambling. |

Here are my cards. I used some paper from Your Next Craft. The orange in it is not my favourite, but I need to use up some of these 6x6 paper pads!  SLoC Sept 22 |

joblackford , please take photos of your cards and post them before you send them off. I always love your cards! thanks I posted a sampling of the ones I finished off on IG. I can't remember which month this design was, the one with the torn edges I think, but I adapted it slightly and then ended up making every card slightly different because I can't help myself! lol http://instagram.com/p/CjDeawDrU8u |

Lovely cards nylene. The color combo is just so classy and those images just perfect for them. I definitely have to check those out. Ephemera packs are so expensive and when use them up they are gone. How many images do you get for $.50? I like the cards without the dark green mats, but if you still want to add them to your cards. You can always cut some skinny strips of cs and just glue them on the top. I do this with special papers I don't want to waste as a mat or when I try to keep my card light. |

justjac awesome cards. Love your label dies and that you stamped a design in a light color and your sentiment in a dark one. Always loved that idea I just have to remember to use it. joblackford cool cards. Actually that is one of my favorite SLoC sketch. Its October '21.

justjac, I really like your cards. Great birthday papers. You have love in the gallery. joblackford , your cards are delightful. I especially love the Ghost Hug. I need to remember that for a sentiment. I love the way you have separated some of your layers with vellum. Your Halloween papers are perfect. These will all be loved! Thanks for posting them. I get great ideas from you. azcrafty , thanks. I may add the tiny strips of green before I send them off. The images I used weren't EP after all. They were by LaLa Shiba and were on sale on Design Studio. There are 8 and 9 images in each collection. I don't know if they were a mistake in price, but I took advantage. Right now every thing is 50% off so most collections are $3 for 6-9 images. I picked up some Christmas ones today but am having a problem separating them so that I can resize and use individual ones. I've tried everything, watched Silhouette YouTubes, but still can't separate them. I have contacted LaLa Shiba to see if the file is missing something or if I just don't know what I am doing. They are listed as "planner stickers" so I know they expect you to be able to resize them. I am hoping that gramma may have some ideas on the online crop on Sat. She knows everything about the Silhouette! I thought they were even worth the $3 because I can make as many as I want, in all sizes, and it's much, much cheaper than buying a package of die cuts. If I can just get them separated.

Thank you nylene and good luck with these stickers. I don't know anything about Silhouette machines, so I can't help. |

Wow so many beautiful cards! Very inspiring! I'm late since it's no longer September but decided to give this one a try anyway - all scraps except the green - Momenta lemon stamp, Ohuhu markers, white circle is punched, green is die cut. I'm really pleased with how these turned out.  |

Beautiful coloring Linda . I just got 2 sets of Ohuhu markers. How do you like them? Thank you. I'm happy with the markers but I'm very much a colouring novice. However my DD15 has had hers for a couple of years now and loves them - she's very into art. |
