My favorite part of the Sheetloads Ezine is not only the sketch (of course!), but I also enjoy the cutting diagrams. The sheetload sketches are formatted for either making a single card, or for using the sketch to mass produce the card design. For example, the yield for the October sketch is 8- 5.5" square cards. What that means is that in order to create all 8 cards, you will need:

8 - 8.5” x 11” Solid Cardstock sheets (or 4- 12" x 12" cardstock sheets),

3 - 12” x 12” Patterned Paper sheets, and

1 - 5.5” x 8” sheet of Patterned Paper.

(I used all solid cardstock for each of the layers on my card.) All of this information can be found in each Sheetloads Ezine issue & is specific to each month's sketch!

So, when you get ready to mass create your holiday cards this year, participate in a card swap, or for the next time you need to make invitations, make sure to check out the latest Sheetloads Ezine (or check out their archives for previous issues) and quickly whip up the cards you need to make!

Now run over to the Sheetloads Blog & check it all out!

Have a wonderful day!

Smiles,
