Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #26


In amongst all sorts of injury and illness (not all mine!) I have also been very busy getting ready for some upcoming Christmas Card Workshops and being in Christmas mode I changed this weeks lovely sketch from AHSC from flowers to snowflakes.

I love how the Cricut and the 3 wonderful Cricut Collections from Close To My Heart make making things (like snowflakes) so quick and easy!  The snowflakes are from all 3 Cricut Collections and I lightly sponged them all with Crystal Blue Ink to give each a little more dimension.  Products I used for this card are the Frosted Paper Packet, the gold/cream twine is from The Twinery, the golden shimmer brad is a retired product (so sad my horde stash is running low!) and I added a few touches of Almond Glitz Glitter Gel to finish it off.

Happy Crafting!

Sunday Afternoon

Image
It's Sunday and I finally got to spend some time down in the craft room!  Last week was very busy with company and I had performances with The Allegra Singers.  I so love to sing! I live a very charmed life in that I am married to a wonderful man, have an amazing child and get to do things that make my soul happy like scrapbooking and singing! A very charmed life indeed.

Today's little creation was inspired by "Dynamic Duos" Challenge #1!  This is a brand new challenge blog where you create only using the colours they suggest and neutrals.  For the layout I decided to try Freshly Made Sketches #33 where the aim is to keep your project clean-lined and fresh.  I am also submitting this card to CAS-ual Fridays #51 in celebration of their first birthday.


 I used Close To My Heart Pear and Lagoon for the colours and a scrap from my Dotty For You paper package (that wonderful $5 pack of paper is going to be used for a long, long time).  I also used my Art Philosophy Cricut…
