Atlantic Hearts Sketch #261 with Sneak Preview of Beautiful Friendship Paper

We have another great sketch for you to try at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge this week!  I used the large open panel to feature some beautiful paper (sneak preview of Close to My Heart Beautiful Friendship paper available May 1).

The Sapphire dotted paper is the flip side of the gorgeous floral paper.  This panel was matted with Smoothie Cardstock and Bashful Cardstock.  The thin stripes are Silver Foil Cardstock.  The "Thinking of You" greeting is from Thoughtful Bird stamp set and was Silver embossed.  It was a quick and easy card to make.  

Here is the fabulous sketch that inspired my card:

Our challenge is open until Sunday night at 10PM ET.  We would love to have you share your take on the sketch in our gallery!
