Circle Power with AHSC

This is such a fun sketch from Michelle at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge this week.

Is it rain drops, pool balls, circles???  The possibilities are endless.

What will you create??

I've used the Some Kinda Wonderful paper collection for my card.

The cute complements in bright colours pop from the black and white background paper.  The sentiment is from a retired stamp set & is a "go to" for baby cards!!

I'm also in love with the black & white enamel dots from this collection.  (hoping they come out in additional colours!!)

Technique Fun with H2H

It's time for another challenge at Heart 2 Heart Sketch Challenge this week.

For this week, the challenge is "Technique Time" - no patterned paper.  I hope you'll play along with us.

I used the retired arrow embossing folder on seaglass cardstock and then sanded to show the white core of the cardstock.

The sentiment is heat embossed in silver with the embossed cardstock layered overtop with foam tape to provide some additional dimension.

To finish off I added some silver glitter tape, and a few clear sparkles.


Now it's your turn to add your project simply by following this link.  You have all month to play.

Frame it Up with AHSC

Happy Monday - we're almost half way through March - surely Spring is around the corner.

Today's sketch from Michelle for Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge has a wonderful large focal point to centre your project.

My first thought was a mirror, then a frame... hmmmm

Ultimately, I pulled out the Flower Market cricut cartridge and used the great background wreath as my focal point.  I'm in love with this cartridge - it has so many great images.

The paper flowers and leaves are from my stash that I layered up and popped with the new gold glitter gems.

I masked the image from the May stamp of the month, eliminating the tea cup and using only the sentiment for my card.

A tiny bow with the fern thick twine finishes off the card.

Time to Dream

Happy Monday!!  It's time to dream with Heart to Heart Challenges this week.

I had a lot of projects come to mind, but ultimately decided to use the Dreamin' Big paper collection and my favourite picture my life cards.  Using the 4x6 or 3x4 pieces provide a great jumping off point for all your projects.  I inked the edges with slate ink and added whisper twine and retired white starts to finish the card off.

Enjoy,
