I am in love with the August 2023 Sheetload of Cards and I can say it's my new favourite! I always know it's a great Sheetload when I want to make another set right after completing my first one. For this one though? I hadn't even assembled the pieces before I was rooting around for more papers to cut up. I have a set of Doodlebug papers & borders cut for a Thanksgiving set and some cheerful rainbow Christmas trees cut for holiday cards. You can see all the details of these Birthday Cards in my YouTube video:
I thought the greeting would be cute on a die cut cloud, so that is what I did for the first four cards.
The next four cards have the striped paper as the diagonal strip and I wanted something more than just a cloud. Adding a die cut sun was just what I was going for and these cards make me HAPPY.
I added the same sentiment inside all eight of the cards and these ones are ready to go to my Mom's old nursing home. I am going to cut a bunch more from different papers to have ready to assemble, as this Sheetload goes together SO quickly! 😊
