Flowers & Polka Dots

Happy Monday!!!  I'm ready for another sketch from Michelle @ Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge Blog and I hope you are as well.

The sketch for this week is right up my alley - clean & simple.  I'm using up the balance of my Falling for You paper and some oldie but goodies from my stash.

For the new - Falling for You polka dot patterned paper and espresso cardstock form the base of the card.  The sentiment is stamped using espresso as well.

For the from my stash - the flowers!!  I love the colour of the blooms and added an over size brad to the centre.  The tiny flowers and leaves finish up the bouquet.

Add a few bitty sparkles and a twine bow and done!!



I hope you'll play along with our sketch this week.  It's easy - just link up your project by clicking here.

Enjoy,

Falling for You

I'm in love with the new paper collections in the Holiday Expressions catalogue from Close to My Heart.  All of the four collections have something for everyone and we'll all be creating some fabulous artwork with them.

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge for this week, I used the new Falling for You paper collection, along with the September Stamp of the Month, Feel So Blessed.

I chose to use the big flower pattern backed on fern cardstock for the base of my card, and layered up the centre focal point with fern and goldrush cardstock,

The gold glitter heart border is from the Happy Moments complements.

The sentiment "thanks" and "feel so blessed" are gold heat embossed.  I added gold glitter gems, and fern thick twine to finish off my card.
