April Sheetload of Cards #SUYSAPR2020 Set of 6 "ALOHA" cards featuring #lawnfawn and #echopark

Happy Tuesday!   I have an April Sheetload of Cards Collaboration Team set of cards to share today.  The stamps I used are from a Lawn Fawn stamp set called Aloha. The papers are from an Echo Park 12 x 12 paper pack called Summer Fun.  I made these cards and then finished off the entire pack. I'll share those cards in another post.


When I set down to make my cards, I had my music blaring from a speaker and wasn't paying close attention to what I was doing....  because when I went to put the cards on the card bases, I realized that my top layers weren't cut to the right size!!!!!!!  This was after a long day... sigh!   I cut them 4 1/4" x 5 1/4" instead of 5 1/2" and I couldn't trim down the 4 1/4" side because I had already put the card fronts together.. I improvised and made a bottom layer and adhered the tops and let it go~!   These cards will be in a box heading to Florida to the Bring Smiles to Seniors organization.

Ever since receiving the sketch, I have made 113 cards with it. I will share the other 107 in other posts.

Here are my first 6 cards I made using this month's Sheetload of Cards April Sketch ~ it's a keeper~!

love how the black makes all the colors pop. And now I wish I was on a beach with a fruity beverage instead of stuck in my house - thanks for the ray of sunshine you brought to my morning!

With everything going on in the world, I woke up dreading another day of self-isolation and uncertainty. Then I read your email, saw these cards and I started laughing. They are AWESOME! I rushed to your website because I just had to comment. Thank you for adding a bright spark to the start of my day, with these awesome cards. I love this sketch too and you have inspired me to use it today.
Thank you again!
