Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #247

With only having a boy child I don't get to play with the "little girl" papers very much but we have a new little friend who's birthday party is this weekend and I got to make a girl card!  Using this week's sketch from Atlantic Hearts gave me a great prompt to get started especially given that I am not well (fever, headache, earache, etc.) and I am finding it very hard to concentrate.
Products I used for this card are Canary Cardstock which I embossed with a retired embossing folder, Make Waves Paper Packet, Make Waves Sequins & Gems, the sentiment is from the Birthday Sparkles stamp set stamped in Eggplant and I used Extra Thick Twine (in 2 retired colours) for my bow.  I finished off my card by painting the background embossed ridges with both Clear and the new Bashful Shimmer Brushes.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope I inspired you to come play along with us at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge.

Happy Crafting!
