Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge 22

This one was fun to do.  Went back to the basics again with the Gina K black, white and of course flowers and ribbons.  

Marianne Dies for the flowers and leaves
Elan Ribbon 
Close To My Heart half pearls in black.  
This card is 5" square.  Love making them because it gives more  play room on the card front.  


This is the original for the sketch


Have a good one all.  

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge 21

Wanted to do a pastel colour that is one of my favourites.  

GKD Creme de Menthe  Love this colour for softer cards. 
The Die cuts are from the  Art Philosophy Cartridge from Close To My Heart.   Have had it quite a while, but had lots of problems getting the new machine to work.  Purchasing new blades and mats, did the trick, even if a new machine.   :)

This long one with the beautiful half pearl strip from Davie Tutera is actually two cuts of the same border matched together with the pearls over the seam.  These were a gift and really great because the shimmery background is behind them when you use in a strip like this.  

A simple, elegant card for a special occasion.  Again left blank so if something is wanted on the front, it can be added, if not just on the inside.  
Enjoy. 

Here is the actual sketch for this card. 


Other items used: Centura Pearl stock for the card
                               Close To My Heart white stock for the die cuts and layers.

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge 20

This was a sketch that told me to just do it as is, which is not normal,  so basically it is a CAS card, nothing fussy. After finished, kept looking at it to see what else could be done with it, and came up with nothing, so you got it like it is.  :)

For this one went with the Gina K Bubblegum Pink
Crafter's Companion Centura Pearl stock 
Stamp Close To My Heart
Momento Ink in Rose Bud,
Half pearls from stash.  





Here is the original sketch which for me was followed pretty true for a change. 

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge 19


Since my mojo is taking a holiday somewhere, have been slow getting cards done.  Get an idea, and this one was left on the table for about 5 days.  Sure wish it would come back.  :)

The shiny parts on the designer paper are not showing up as well as could, but you can see it.  Makes it pretty in real life so had to glitter the butterflies to go with it. 

The stock is actually Gina K Ivory heavy weight, covered with 
Close To My Heart Bamboo and Gypsy stock
The Designer paper is from Papiers Creation  8 x 8 glitter pad called "Dreamcatcher"
Glitter on the butterflies from stash 
Butterflies in Bamboo with MS punch
