The sketch over at Just Add Ink really appealed to me so I decided to use this pretty patterned paper to create a Get Well Card.

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #405 with Country Dragonfly and Hello
Welcome back to another Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge blog post! This week our challenge invites you to have several horizontal panels with an offset frame. We hope you find the time to play along with us this week. My card features Blossom paper.
The Dragonfly stamps and Hello stamp from Happiness Lives Here--Cardmaking were first inked in Versamark Ink and then inked in Sapphire Ink and Clear Embossed. They were then colored with Jade Green Tri-Blend Marker and True Blue Tri-Blend Markers. The background behind the dragonfly is retired Sunset paper cut with Stitched Bracket Thin Cut Dies. The middle panel was trimmed with very old Deckle Edge scissors. The striped elements are "zip strips" from the Blossom paper.

Here is the wonderful Freshly Made Sketch that inspired my card layout:

Atlantic Hearts Sketch #401 with Blossom Paper
Welcome back to another Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge blog post! This week our sketch has 3 panels and a round sentiment focal element to spark your creativity. My card uses an older Close to My Heart paper pack called Blossom which will become available again on January 1. The coordinating card stocks are Sunset and Lagoon. The flower group is from the Artistry stamp set and the sentiment is from Spruced Up Cardmaking stamp set. The scalloped circle thin cut die was used for the focal frame. The flowers were accented with the Clear Shimmer Brush.
