AHSC #526 - Mintay Papers

 Happy Monday & welcome to another great sketch with Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge.

I discovered a new paper line - Mintay and couldn't wait to use on this awesome sketch.

I've used "Her Story" patterned paper & die cuts for this card.  Each piece is ink distressed with Sandy Shores Kraftin' Kimmie ink.  The sewing form is popped up with foam tape for added dimension.

A great simple sentiment from A Bit Smart Assy Kraftin' Kimmie to remind the recipient to Be Fabulous, stamped & inked in sandy shores.  I then added a few enamel dots from my stash to finish off the card.

Be sure to play along & link up your project here

Enjoy,
