Hello friends! I think most people know I’m a huge fan of using card sketches for inspiration. I’ve used Call Me Crafty Al’s sketches several times, but I hadn’t tried her SheetLoad of Cards yet. So when I saw the April 2021 SheetLoad of Cards, I decided to give it a go. It’s a fun mini slimline card edition this month. I used the Fireworks & Freedom collection from Bella Blvd for my cards. (It’s one of my favorite patriotic collections.)

Thanks for visiting my blog today.
I appreciate your kindness and support!
Looks great, Kristie. I like that paper collection, and know it’s right up your alley, too. 🙂 Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, Jeanne! You know I love patriotic papers. 😊
That is great paper and works so well with this sketch. About how long did it take you to make all the cards? When doing a sheet load, I tend to be a little faster than more normal snail’s pace. Also, is there a standard envelope for mini-slimline cards? They really are a great size! TFS!!
Thanks so much! I didn’t really pay attention to the time while making the cards, but it wasn’t long at all. It always seem to go faster when making multiples of the same card. I have not found a good envelope yet for the mini slimline cards. This size does fit inside a standard envelope though. #6 3/4 I think. 🙂
