Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #46

We are fast approaching #52!  Hard to believe we have been at this for almost a year, "Time Flies when you are having fun!"

This weeks sketch from Atlantic Hearts is deceptively easy. Took me much longer than I care to admit to settle on the details for this card. But now that the decisions have been made I am very pleased with the results.
 
Products that I used for this card:

- Ariana Paper Packet, Outdoor Denim and Colonial White Cardstock
- Cricut Artiste pg. 33 for the fancy scalloped shape for my sentiment
- Stamp Set is "Friend" A1142 and is a Hostess Rewards Stamp Set (ask me how you can get yours!)
- Smoothie Mini-Medley for the smoothie ribbon and metal accent. (retired and currently on While Supplies Last)

Have fun checking out all the great artwork submitted to the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge, I hope you get inspired and decide to come play along!  We would love to see what you create and you may be voted into the top 3 cards of the week.  

AND because I just love how this card turned out I have decided to enter it into a few other challenges...

Shopping Our Stash: SOS#142: Sentiment(s) Only  The focus of the card is to be the sentiment which I feel I have complied with here.

Addicted to Stamps: Challenge #86 Anything Goes I think I got that covered...
Thank you for stopping by and I truly appreciate your comments!  
Happy Crafting!

Ariana and Delicate Wings...

Working on cards for my monthly Card Club and I love to use "challenges" to help me focus (sometimes I have too many ideas and not enough paper!).  Challenges are not only helpful but also a lot of fun. Products I used to make this cards are the very pretty Ariana Paper Packet , the sentiment is from the Joyful Birthday Stamp Set (B1419 ) and the current Petite Perks - Delicate Wings (ask me how you can get yours free!) for the stamped images. All stamping was done in Indian Corn Blue Ink and all products are from Close To My Heart.  Some of the challenges that inspired me for this card are: Heart 2 Heart Challenges: Pantone Spring 2014 Color Challenge The challenge is to use one (or more) of the Pantone Spring 2014 colors on your project; only neutrals such as white, cream, tan, gray, or black may also be used. I feel the Ariana Colour palette and the Indian Corn Blue that I used for the stamping fall into the colour palette used in the Pantone Spring 2014 n
