Golfer Birthday Card with Atlantic Hearts Sketch #455

 Welcome back to another Atlantic HeartsSketch Challenge blog post!  This week our sketch features a diagonally striped background with a round element in the bottom right hand corner.  My diagonal background was created by alternating Silver Foil Tape and Sapphire Ink stamped sentiments from My Hole in One Stamp set.  My round corner element is a Stitched Circle Thin Cut with a golf bag image on top of it.  The golf clubs were silver embossed while the bag was stamped in Sapphire Ink.  I used a pencil eraser dipped in ink for my 3 embellishments.

Here is our fabulous sketch that inspired my card layout and for you to try.  Our challenge is open until Sunday evening, January 16 and you can link up your project here.  We look forward to visiting your blogs and leaving some bloggy comment love. Please stop by our blog on Wednesday to see what the rest of the talented Design Team has to inspire you.
