I like that you used your scraps on inside of the cards as circles instead of strips like I usually do. Punches would work as well. Thank you for sharing.
Yes, I've used a sponge with glue on a silicone mat, as well as using a fine-tip glue bottle to put a wee bit of glue on the back and usually dab some off on the back of my hand. It depends on the "glueable" space on the die and what I have closest to me. The cards turned out great, but I'd have expected nothing less. I'll get to your collaborators a bit at a time. Thanks for another keeper.
A great trick with the glue. I try to use double sided adhesive sheets (when I remember to do that) when I have intricate pieces like that. Great set of cards! I really do like that paper pad! TFS!
My work space is always crowded so I wouldn’t have room for a silicon mat and sponge. For intricate die cuts, I put a dab of glue on the back of my hand and use a tweezer to lay the die cut on the glue and then attach to the card. Because it’s on the back of my hand, I don’t accidentally get glue where it doesn’t belong.
#QOTV ~ You just reminded me I used the glue and sponge trick on my son’s baby book, but have forgotten about it. BTW, he’s 30 now, so that was a looonnggg time ago.
Thanks for the video. I used the sponge gluing technique when I lead a card making session at a local senior living facility. Worked great, dried quickly. A few sticky fingers, but using a tweezer helped. Now off to the other videos!
I wish I had known about you before this past Card Summit last weekend, but so glad to know about you now :) Thank you!!! These are adorable!!! Definitely nice to have a specific use for my 6x6 papers!
Love, Love, Love these cards, Alicia!!!! Very simple, but great design! I don't know how you come up with so many great designs each month. And I have this stamp set which makes it even easier to do. Thank you so much for another great design and videos for helping to make these cards!!!!!
I am so glad you like the new SheetLoad, Linda! I am always worried this might be the last month for SheetLoad, but then I am able to make another sketch. ;) Hope you have fun 'getting crafty' with it!
I look so forward to your videos every month! I thank you so much for showing us such diversity of cards. Your creativeness is catching. I like so much the simplicity of it but they appear complicated and yet, once I watch you, I think I can do it. You are the best!
I really like this card design this month! It is not too hard and looks sort of geometrical. I’m going to truly enjoy making some of these cards….here I go!!
I always enjoy watching your videos, Alicia! These sheetloads of cards are so helpful. I can make so many cards! Yours are beautiful! Thanks for sharing this and for sharing the download with everyone. I really appreciate it.
Perfect Spring cards! Your videos are so well done with clear instructions and helpful hints. The sponge and glue top is new to me. Thanks for sharing 😊
Hi Alicia. I love how your cards are always so uncluttered, neat and tidy. This month's SLOC is great and I look forward to making a card or as many cards as the SLOC suggests. TFS your inspiration. 🌈💚🤗.
Love the bright, cheery colors on these. You can always count on Doodlebug for that. I always look forward to your card sketches each month. Thanks so much for bringing them to us! I've seen and tried the glue trick but it is difficult to not get glue on the front side of the die cut unless you can keep it in place while dabbing. Then you have to move each one around to different spots on the mat if you are doing multiples. I prefer to just use a fine tip bottle and hold the die cut with craft tweezers while I am applying the glue.
Love this design! I make cards for 2 organizations…one for children and one for Soldiers. This design will make some really nice cards! I have used the “glue trick” too and it’s great. I think I saw it long ago on a Stampin Up video. Thanks for this month’s design!
My mom or sister ordered a lot of those and shared them with me. I don't think they were anything special. the one I used in this video was half of the full sponge. I think the original person my mom saw use this technique uses a 1/4 sponge. Hope that helps and thanks for watching :)
Great spring colors! I have tried using a sponge with glue for intricate die cuts before, and it works well as long as I’m careful not to let the die cut shift at all as I’m applying the glue. Otherwise some glue can get on the front of the die cut.
I was working on my second set while watching the process video this morning. In my first set I added a strip of scrap cardstock under the center strip to keep everything level (a Kristie Marcotte tip). I decided to leave the branding strip part with the circle cut out for hanging on top of my first one inch strip. I discovered that by leaving this attached, it not only made everything level, but I could align my top outer edge pieces precisely on the bottom row. I don't know if I'm explaining clearly enough. I will upload an in process photo to your facebook album with the midway process.
having fun with the sheetloads
So glad! :)
I love how bright and cheery these are! And, thanks for another great sketch!
Thanks for watching and being part of the team!!
Your cards are so bright and pretty....love the sketch 😊 Hugs...Janie
Thanks so much 😊
Love the circles inside the cards from you scraps! So creative!!
Glad you liked that :) Thanks for watching!
I LOVE the tip for cutting a smaller strip and using tape to hold it in place. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Glad that was helpful! TFW :)
The glue on a singe tip is brilliant!!!
So glad my mom told me about that :) Thanks for watching!
Gorgeous cards Alicia 😻 I love your sheetload of cards design, the pattern papers and your sentiments ❤ thanks for sharing your creativity Hugs xx
Thanks so much, Joan! :)
I am making about 40 St Patrick cards for family and friends. This let's me use scraps of greens so I LOVE it. Thank you! Nk
This is a great SheetLoad to use up those scraps! :) TFW
Great choice of papers and embellishment for another great design. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment :) TFW!
I like that you used your scraps on inside of the cards as circles instead of strips like I usually do. Punches would work as well. Thank you for sharing.
The circles just happened to work out with the sizes of the scraps leftover. I was pretty happy with the results too. :) TFW
I love the color palette on his set of cards!
Thanks so much for watching and being part of the team :)
Beautiful cards as always! Thank you for the ideas and the glue trick.
I am so glad my mom saw someone use that glue trick - it worked very well. :) Thanks for watching!
Crafty Al another GREAT layout

Thanks so much, Dorothy! :)
Thanks for the trick with the glue.
Glad it was helpful :) TFW

Someone else mentioned using their hand as well. :) thanks for watching and I hope you enjoy seeing what the rest of the team created!
I've got some cute St Patrick's Day pattern paper that would be great for these cards!
Awesome! Have fun ‘getting crafty’! :)
Love the paper, love the design of the card. I watched Connie Stewart's video for the sponge and glue; it works pretty good for me. TFS, Nicole
That might have been the SU demo my mom saw do the glue trick - I know she watches her videos :) TFW!
I've watched all your collaborators videos as well as yours..what a treasure!! Thanks so much for sharing.
Thanks so much for taking the time to watch everyone’s videos! :)
Great cards ... love the bright colours.And thanks for the sponge tip for applying glue - I always end up with blobs of glue everywhere!!
So glad my mom saw that and told me about it! Thanks for watching :)
Great trick with the glue on the silicone mat! Definitely going to try this!
So glad my mom let me know about that glue trick - was very handy :) TFW
A great trick with the glue. I try to use double sided adhesive sheets (when I remember to do that) when I have intricate pieces like that. Great set of cards! I really do like that paper pad! TFS!
I was JUST looking for my adhesive sheets and they are no where to be found :( haha Thanks for watching.
Love the bright colors you used. Can’t wait to give this sheet load a try 👍🏻
Hope you have fun 'getting crafty' with it! :) TFW
Super cute!!!!
Thank you :)
I love that glue tip. Have never done it that way but will now.
Hope it works for you, too! :) TFW

#QOTV ~ You just reminded me I used the glue and sponge trick on my son’s baby book, but have forgotten about it. BTW, he’s 30 now, so that was a looonnggg time ago.
Those 'old' tips seem to pass the test of time :) TFW!
Can't wait to get to my craft room!!

Thanks for the video. I used the sponge gluing technique when I lead a card making session at a local senior living facility. Worked great, dried quickly. A few sticky fingers, but using a tweezer helped. Now off to the other videos!

@@CallMeCraftyAl if you ever run out of design, you can always repurpose older ones like on your rewinds and change them up a bit. ❤️
I sometimes have success with the glue and sponge. Sometimes I just make a mess.
Things can get a little 'sticky' ;) TFW!
I have used that sponge tip
Hope you had success with it too. Thanks for watching! :)
I wait impatiently for each new Sheetload! I love all the cards shared by you and your team. Thanks to all.
So glad you like SheetLoad :) TFW
That glue trick with the sponge is brilliant! I've never seen it done that way before
So glad my mom told me about that truck and that you like it as well. :)
Very cute Spring cards, I’ve come to appreciate Doodle Bug paper too. 🌷

I love the colors you chose. The card base makes these cards pop with a look of Spring.

So glad you used some tricks of your own. This is definitely one where the Kristie Marcotte leveling piece would come in handy. :) TFW
I am lost- I subscripted but I don't understand where I find the sheets for the cards. These ideas are adorable and I would love to try them.
I give instructions in the debut video on where to find the link. The debut video is linked in this description box. :)
Pretty cards! A great way to mass produce. Thanks for the glue tip I hadn't seen that done before!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching :)
