New Grandparent Card with Atlantic Hearts Sketch #479

Welcome back to another Atlantic HeartsSketch Challenge blog post!  This week our sketch features 3 circles. My card was made for friends who just had their first granddaughter.  The paper is from Close to my Heart called "Oh My Happy" and the sentiment stamp is from New Grandbaby (on sale for $5) and congrats is from Cutest Baby (also on sale for $5  until June 30). The ink is Raspberry with Versamark Ink and clear embossing powder. The center circle was cut with a Scalloped Circle Thin Cut Die (retired CTMH).

Here is our fabulous sketch that inspired my card layout and for you to try.  Our challenge is open until Sunday evening, July 3 and you can link up your project here.  We look forward to visiting your blogs and leaving some bloggy comment love.

Two Cards with Atlantic Hearts Sketch #478

 Welcome back to another Atlantic HeartsSketch Challenge blog post!  This week our sketch features a center vertical panel, a center strip, a focal element, a sentiment and a trio of embellishments.  I enjoyed this sketch so much that I made two cards!    The first card I made for my grandson's 6th grade graduation and the second was made for a friend who just had shoulder surgery.  Since we are partnering with the Double Trouble Challenge I created my own center panels with Cosmic Shimmer Pixie Sparkles on glossy photo paper.

Thinking of You Card with Atlantic Hearts Sketch #477

 Welcome back to another Atlantic HeartsSketch Challenge blog post!  This week our sketch features a wonky side element with focal image and sentiment.  The stamp set is from Close to my Heart called "Daisies for You" and the paper is from the Sawyer paper pack.  I used a Spectrum Noir Tri-Blend Marker (Lavender 3) and a ruler to outline the white panel.
