Easter Card

 There's a new card sketch up today at Atlantic Hearts Sketches. We have a new one every Monday and on Wednesday we announce the winners from the previous week and reveal the DT members examples.      

I hope you'll stop by and play along with us!


Here's the sketch


I decided to start my Easter cards with this one. I used some scraps from an old Bo Bonny Cottontail Collection for the background. I then cut the egg and the frame with my Cricut. The pink background behind the egg was done with chalk and the stamp is about 15-20 years old....I think I got it from the dollar bin at Michaels.

Thanks for stopping by.

Hugs & Kisses

 There's a new card sketch challenge up today at Atlantic Hearts Sketches. We have a new card sketch every Monday and on Wednesday we reveal the DT members cards and announce the three top winners from the previous week. I hope you'll stop by and play along with us!

Here's my example


Here's the sketch


I started with a white card base and then cut the red stripes from foil paper and lined them up across the bottom of the card. The xoxo is from an old Photo Play Valentine kit along with the sentiment. The swirly piece was cut using foil paper with my Cricut. The little hearts are from Hobby Lobby.

Thank you for stopping by!

Valentine's Day Card

 There's a new card sketch up today at Atlantic Hearts Sketches. There's a new sketch every Monday and on Wednesday we reveal the DT members take on the sketch and announce the top three winners from the previous week. I hope you will come play along with us.


Here's the sketch


I thought this would be perfect for a Valentines Day card by changing the squares to hearts. So I die cut the red and pink hearts. I also embossed the pink and white paper background with a heart and dot patterned embossing folder. The heart balloon sticker is from an old Photo Play Collection.

Thanks from stopping by!

I love this sketch and it came together so easily. I used a white card base and then layered 3 different shades of pink cardstock on it. The purple heart is cut with an old die from Cheapo Dies. Then I just added the Love stamp from Heidi Grace.

It's that time of year, so of course I just had to make a Christmas card! All the papers on here are from Vicki Boutin's, Evergreen and Holly collection. The Christmas tree I found in my Christmas stash and it just happened to fit perfectly. This is a great sketch for a quick and easy card!

Thanks for stopping by!

Enjoy the Wonder

 We've got a new card sketch up at Atlantic Hearts Sketches today. We have a new sketch every Monday and on Wednesday we announce the previous week's winners and reveal the DT members examples.



Here's the sketch


This is a great sketch to use up your scraps and I know you must have some if you're like me. I dug into some very old Christmas scraps from probably ten years ago. The only thing new on here is the sentiment stamp from MFT. This was simply a cut and paste project and really didn't take all that long.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you'll join us and play along.

Joyful

 We've got a new card sketch up today at Atlantic Hearts Sketches. We have a new sketch every Monday and on Wednesday we announce the previous weeks winners and reveal all the DT members examples. I hope you'll stop by and play along with us.


Here's the sketch


I love this sketch and I think I'll be making some more Christmas cards using it. I started with a solid white card base and added the bright blue foil paper and a white background. The silver snowflakes are foil washi tape and the Joyful was cut using a Momenta Die. The starburst was cut using a Sizzix framelits and stamp kit. The stamps were inked up using the new Spectrum Noir Tri-Colour metallic pens. The colors of those pens are so pretty. I can't wait to use them on black paper!

Thanks for stopping by!

From Our Home To Yours

 We've got another card sketch up today at Atlantic Hearts Sketches. We have a new card sketch every Monday and on Wednesday we reveal the DT members examples and announce the three winners from the previous week. I hope you'll stop by and play along with us. 


Here's the sketch



This was a quick and easy card and I love the simplicity of the sketch. I started with a cream colored card base. I added the green paper and found the green Merry Christmas washi tape in my stash and thought it would be perfect. The bells were cut on my Cricut and the red foil ribbon is a diecut from Amy Designs. The stamp is from Pink Fresh Studios Thrill of Hope Collection.

Thanks for stopping by!

BOO!

 We've got a new card sketch up today over at Atlantic Hearts Sketches. We have a new card sketch every Monday and on Wednesday we reveal the DT Members examples and announce the three top winners from the previous week. I hope you'll stop by and play along with us.


Here's the sketch


I love this sketch! It is so versatile and I plan on using it for all sorts of cards. I started by inking up a crackle embossing folder and embossing a piece of white cardstock. Then tore some Halloween themed washi tape for the stripes. I wrapped some raffia around the card and cut the witches hand with my Cricut. You can't really see it in the photo but I painted the witches fingernails red using some Nuvo Drops....it looks so cool.

Thanks for stopping by!

Thrill of Hope Card

 We've got a new card sketch up today at Atlantic Hearts Sketches. We have a new card sketch every Monday and on Wednesday reveal the DT members examples and announce the previous weeks winners. I hope you'll stop by and play along with us.

As soon as I saw this sketch I knew it would be perfect for a Christmas card.


Here's the sketch


I started with a white card and added a red and gold foil strip. The holly and leaves diecuts are from Momenta and the stamp and die sentiment is from Pinkfresh. This was a very quick and easy card but sometimes simple is better and I think this is a beautiful card.
