You Are Amazing Card with Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #599

Welcome back to another Atlantic HeartsSketch Challenge blog post!  This week our sketch features a framed vertical layout with a matted center sentiment circle with embellishments behind it.  My card was made with my friend Susan in mind who did an awesome job of organizing a "Think Pink" event in my community.  The diecut sentiment is from Close to my Heart "You Go Girl" and was embossed with Mulberry Star embossing powder by sparklensprinkle.com. The background panel was ink smooshed with pastel colors and then dry embossed with a "Quilted" embossing folder from We R Memory Makers. The stamped embellishments behind the center panel was made by a very old (30+ years old--wood) D.O.T.S. stamp called Midnight Stars in Sapphire Ink.

Foiled Paper Thank You Card with Tuesday Morning Sketch #776

Yesterday I was looking through my extensive stash of paper pads and came upon an older Recollections pack called "Newport Grove" that has many blue papers with blue foil.  I created this sparkling card following this week's Tuesday Morning Sketch #776.  The Thank You die cut was brushed with Crafter's Companion Glitter Paste.
