Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #15

Happy BC Day, I hope everyone has had a wonderful long weekend!

It is very sad to say but I have spent the last week or so trying to get this sketch done...  Don't know why but every version I came up with I just didn't like.  Not even a little! I literally have a basket full of bit and pieces and half finished cards or cards that I tore apart.  Granted I have been under a bit of stress with all this house buying stuff but wow it really needs to stop affecting my creative mojo! That being said, earlier today I sat down at my desk and said "MAKE SOMETHING!" and this is what I came up with in about 10 minutes.  This one I like... cute, quick and done!


To make this card I cut out all the pieces using Art Philosophy (pg 43), Chantilly B&T papers and White Daisy Cardstock.  I stamped the "Thank You" in Twilight Pigment Ink and once it was dry coloured in the "You" using Buttercup Alcohol Makers.

I then inked the edges of the Chantilly B&T with Twilight ink and put my card together.  I finished it off with 3 bitty sparkles. 

Quick, cute and done!

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #178

I love how sometimes I see a sketch, and I create my card/project almost exactly the same and then other times it turns into something that still has the base elements but is not at all how I had planned it! That happened with this sketch for AHSC.  I started out with so many ideas (good sketches do that, give you tons of ideas) and then while playing with my many ideas this card was the outcome. 

Products I used to create this card:
- Kraft Paper, Juniper Cardstock - CTMH Oh Deer! paper - Gold Shimmer Trim - Gold Sequins - Cricut Flower Market - Wreath - Cricut Artistry - Deer
Thank you for stopping by, I truly appreciate your comments.  I hope you have been inspired to come play along with us at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge!
