A Bunch of Girl Cards

Good morning!  Yesterday I shared a group of boy birthday cards I created from the 6x6 Echo Park All Boy paper pad.  Today I am sharing the group of girl cards I created with the 6x6 Echo Park All Girl paper pad!
The first style of card is made using the SheetLoad of Cards May 2020 sketch.  Embellishments include a button die cut, Totally White Trendy Twine and sequins.  The setiment was created on my computer and printed off.
The second style of card was made with the SheetLoad of Cards August 2019 sketch.  The stamp is from APB Smile set and stamped with black ink.  I added a die cut flower and a single pink brad to embellish.
The next cards were made using the SheetLoad of Cards April 2020 sketch.  Embellishments include enamel dots.  The setiment was created on my computer and printed off then die cut with Pink Fresh Studio fancy label frames dies.
Here is the unicorn version of the same sketch.
To be honest, I wasn't 100% LOVING the girl cards, partly because I was having troubles matching solid color cardstocks with the prints.  I stopped after 8 cards even though the boy set I made was 10 cards.  Which one do you prefer?  The boy set or the girl set?  You can see all the details on the boy cards HERE if you missed that post.
I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

A Bunch of Boy Cards

Hello all!  Today I am sharing a group of boy birthday cards that I created earlier this year.  All the patterned papers are from the 6x6 Echo Park All Boy paper pad.

The first style of card is made using the SheetLoad of Cards May 2020 sketch.  Embellishments include In The Navy Trendy Twine and GMD enamel dots.  The setiment was created on my computer and printed off.
The second style of card was made with the SheetLoad of Cards August 2019 sketch.  The stamp is from APB Smile set and stamped with SB.com Midnight Blue ink.  The only embellishments were a pair of colored staples by the sentiment.
The next cards were made using the SheetLoad of Cards April 2020 sketch.  Embellishments include enamel dots.  The setiment was created on my computer and printed off.

The dinosaur card was made in the same manner as the shark card.
The last style of card was just to use leftovers of the first sports card. Embellishments include GMD enamel dots.  The setiment was created on my computer and printed off.
I really loved how this collection of cards turned out!  I decided to make a set of girl cards with the same sketches and will be sharing those later this week.

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

Trendy Bakers Twine~SheetLoad of Halloween Cards

Hello and happy Wednesday!  I am back with a SheetLoad of Halloween cards for the Trendy Twine blog.  I always send out Halloween cards to family, so this was the perfect way to get those made in assembly line fashion!   

The June 2019 SheetLoad of Cards sketch was a perfect one to use because the sentiment strips were perfect for the Happy Halloween stamp set!  That made my decision to make these cards very easy because I love the sentiments in that set!  I used patterned papers (and stickers) from DCWV's Spooky Halloween stack to create the cards.  Do you send out Halloween cards?
The sentiment strips were varying lengths to accomodate several stamps from the Happy Halloween stamp set.  It was fun matching the stickers to the words!  Above and below the sentiment I wrapped Spooktacular Taffy Trendy Twine three times to add a border and really make that strip pop.
To add a little sparkle, I glued sequins from the new Hocus Pocus Shaker Medley onto all of the cards.  The layers were all adhered with ATG with the exception of the character print paper panel, which was popped up with foam tape.  Now the cards are ready to send out to my family!  Do you send out Halloween cards?

Here's what I used from Annie's Paper Boutique:

I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!

SheetLoad of Feminine Birthday Cards

Hello all!  Today I am sharing yet another SheetLoad of Cards made with papers from the Echo Park's Just Be You kit.  So far, I have made 27 cards from that kit, which I am super happy with!  If you want to see the other posts with these papers, click HERE and HERE.
The SheetLoad sketch that I followed was from June 2020.  The stamp is retired from My Craft Spot's Chalkboard Sentiments and I inked it with Scrapbook.com's Midnight Blue hybrid ink.  I colored bits of the sentiment with Artify markers and also punched three holes in the top of the sentiment strip before matting it with the navy cardstock for a little extra visual interest.  To embellish, I added a trio of adhesive gems to the bottom right corner.  Adhesives used were ATG and Bearly Art precision glue.
I hope you have a wonderfully crafty day!
