Hello, Friends! Happy New Year! 2022. My, my, my! Didn't last year go by in the blink of an eye?! Zoooom! And now here we are in 2022. Well, I wish each of you good health, happiness and peace!
If you've been following me on Instagram, you'll know that last year was the Year of the Sketch for me. I chose to use SheetLoad of Cards sketches, that I download for FREE because I am a subscriber to the the Call Me Crafty Al YouTube channel. I like these sketches because I can use up my pretty patterned papers since the sketches yield 6 to 12 cards, sometimes more! The sketches are super easy to follow and they also include a cutting guide to insure that you get the most use out of your paper with little to no waste. Gotta love that! Crafty Al debuts a new sketch on the first day of each month. Then on the second day of the month, she shares a process video, where she shows step by step how she used the sketch. You can use the sketch exactly how it's presented or you can use it as a springboard and make it your own. The sketches are perfect for mass production, too! If you haven't seen these in action, I encourage you to take a look.
Here are some of the cards I made in 2021 using SheetLoad of Cards sketches.
Very often, I make multiple sets. I figured that since I was cutting paper, I might as well cut more and have cards for other occasions. Last year, I had my Christmas and Autumn cards completed by August!
With all that creating and sharing, I caught Crafty Al's eye and guess what? She invited me to join her Instagram Collaboration Team!
I am so excited to join this group of talented crafters. And I hope that you all will take a moment to go to Call Me Crafty Al's YouTube channel to see these sketches in action. Don't forget to subscribe! And you're in for a real treat because she has the entire Collab Team linked on her most recent video, HERE. This way you can be inspired by more of my Team Mates! I will be sharing my creations on my Instagram account, @1busyb and I invite you to follow me there. I will occasionally post here on my blog.
That's all I have to share with you today. I appreciate the visit! Have a wonderful weekend! Please stay safe!
Blessings~
