I'm back on the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Design Team!  I've taken about 2 years off from being on any Design Team due to a relocation and numerous things to do to take care of things.  I'm settled now and am ready to undertake Design Team responsibilities.  I've been playing along with Atlantic Hearts Sketch challenge since its very beginning and I'm happy to be back.

My card today is for a very special young lady whose favorite color is purple having a milestone birthday.
