Just A Note Card with Atlantic Hearts Sketch #472

 Welcome back to another Atlantic HeartsSketch Challenge blog post!  This week our sketch features a central matted vertical panel, a matted center panel for a sentiment with 2 smaller squares to the left side.  A tied bow is used as an embellishment.  

My card uses last year's "You Are Enough" paper with Sapphire Card Stock mats and a greeting from Rustic Sign Sentiment.  A small sized Stitched Rectangle Frame was cut in half and placed to the side of the vertical piece.  I used an old Copper Tinsel Embossing Powder to stamp the sentiment.

Numbered Birthday Card with Freshly Made Sketch #525

 Our friend Neil will be celebrating a milestone birthday this week so I made him a card based on Freshly Made Sketch #525.

The sparkly hexagon background paper is You Are Enough from Close to my Heart and Glacier and Peacock cardstocks form the mats for the Honey Bee Buzzword dies.  The Rose Gold Foil cardstock came from Recollections.  The balloons are from Party Balloons and the numbers are from Junior Varsity Alphabet.  The ink is recently retired Peacock with Polysparkle Tinsel Embossing Powder.

Here is another photo to show off the sparkle in this masculine card. 

This is the fabulous Freshly Made Sketch that inspired my card layout:

Welcome back to another Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge blog post!  This week's sketch features lots of layers and centered circle element. I pulled out my recently retired You Are Enough Paper packet and made this card.

The coordinating papers are White Daisy, Glacier and Sapphire.  The sentiment is from Card Captions in Sapphire Ink and the White Daisy circle was embossed with a Flourish embossing folder. 

Here is the fabulous Atlantic Hearts Sketch that inspired my card layout:

Layered Butterflies Thank You Cards

The graphic at If You Give a Crafter a Cookie inspired my card colors and shape (the pink thank you cookie resembles a butterfly to me.)  The Layered Butterfly Thin Cut Die is from Close to My Heart along with the pink and rose foil paper from the recently retired You Are Enough paper pack.  The Thanks sentiment is from Honey Bee Bitty Buzzwords.  The bottom card stock color is Sangria.

Here is the If You Give a Crafter a Cookie graphic that inspired my card:

I really liked my card design so I made another one in bluish green using a Pixie Sparkled panel with Glacier card stock on the bottom:
