Sharing some SheetLoad Stuff!!

 I am still so sad to learn that SheetLoad of Cards will no longer be published after this month's issue.  (You can click on the cover of the current issue in my side bar to go to the SLC site and download your copy!)  But this last issue was spectacular!!  We had so many artists participating in this final issue and we were sponsored by a great digi company called Doodle Palace!!

I wanted to share with you a couple of cards that I submitted for this issue...Of course they both use the wonderful sketch that you can get from this month's issue!

 My first one uses Doodle Palace's Baby Bear with Sailboat image.  I made this card for a co-worker who just delivered a beautiful baby boy!  I love how the Cosmo Cricket papers can be masculine or feminine.  I colored my bear with Copic markers and tried to make it look textured by how I blended my markers together.

My second card for the December issue uses the Doggie in Stocking image.  For this card I used a variety of DP's from MME and a Nestabilitie to frame the main image!  I colored the image with my Copics!  This will be a great card to give to one of the youngster's in my family for Christmas!

So, I shared some of my SheetLoad cards with you,

All you have to do is create one (1) card and enter it in the August '09 Show Us Your SheetLoad Challenge for a chance to win Two (2) FREE Stamp Sets from Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps!

I was able to be an extra for this month's issue and I had so much fun creating things using the sketch and the SNS stamps! I have shared with you already two of the projects I made and I still have two more to share with you.

The next project I want to share with you using the August SL sketch and Sweet N Sassy stamps is this card...

The digistamp you see used here is the Sweet N Sassy's stamp called Love Struck which can be purchased HERE.

The DP is from K&Co Wild Raspberry collection. I altered the sketch slightly by turning the center oval image upright to better fit my stamp selection.

The ribbon comes from the Dollar Spot at Target and the Lace is from JoAnn's. I used my Martha Stewart border punch and my oval nestie too. I added machine stitching because I felt it went well with the Shabby Chic look I was going for with this card.

Here is a closeup showing the Sakura Gelly Roll glimmer that I added to the bugs wings...

I masked the bug and sponged the background using some of my SU blues! Who couldn't love this little Love Bug??

Now don't delay in heading over to SheetLoad of Cards and downloading August's issue so that you can create your own card (or cards) and share them with us for a chance to win some FREE stamps!

Have a great weekend and may your bucket overflow with lots of bugs! (The kind you get love struck by of course! LOL!)
