Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #54


I find it very hard to concentrate when the sun is out and I have things to get done. Like make something fun with this weeks sketch from AHSC!

Having played with the very bright and colourful Lollydoodle the past few weeks this switch to the more masculine Timberline paper packet was a bit of a shock to my creative system. Lets just say that way more humming and hawing went into this little grad card than I care to admit!
 
 Products I used to create this card are my Cricut using the Artbooking cartridge, Juniper Ink, chocolate, champagne and juniper cardstock, the very lightest paper in the brown& tan Glitter Paper and the cute little grad hat was stamped from the Congrats Graduate (A1139) Stamp Set.

This card turned out very clean and simple and way more masculine that I had originally intended but as mentioned Timberline is a bit more "boyish" with it's plaid, wood grain and hounds-tooth patterns. 

My apologies on the picture, I just could not get the light right today!  You would think with all the sunshine coming in the window it would be a better picture but nope, not today.

Thank you for stopping by and I truly appreciate your comments.  Follow the link to check 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 might get voted top card of the week!  
Happy Crafting!

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!
