Welcome Noel

 Hello Crafty Friends, 

I broke down and bought the Welcome Noel stamp set and dies, paper and accessories because of all the beautiful creations I saw, but when I got it was a bit overwhelmed with what to do. Have you ever experienced that? 

Well I used the Atlantic Hearts Sketch #707 and just started playing around. Here is my first attempt at a card with this product.....

I did add some sparkel to the white background but I should maybe have added some colour. 

Here is the sketch for reference. 

How would you interpret this sketch? I love seeing all your creations so I hope you will consider playing along with us. 

Until we craft again.

Masculine Birthday

 Hello Crafty friends,

I was a bit stumped initally with all the layers for this weeks sketch at Atlantic Hearts Sketch challenge #703. I ended up using the same paper for both the back ground peices and that made it easier for me. 

Here is my card, the lighting is bad, sorry. 

And here is this weeks sketch for reference...

I am supper curious to see what you will make with sketch. 

I hope you will play along.

Sketch #699

 Hello Crafty Friends,

I know I must be getting older because time if flying by! We are already in September and at Atlantic Hearts Sketch #699! I didnt know if I should make a Christmas or Thanksgiving card! 

I chose Christmas since I still send out a lot more Christmas cards than Thanksgiving cards. Here is what I came up with. 

And here is the sketch, I realized the red strip is suppose to be not the whole distance...oops.

I used retired stamps, papers and my copic markers to colour the image. I just moved from craft room down to the dinning room because my daughter and granddaughter moved in and I have a lot of stuff. Its very hard to justify buying more new stuff with so much paper and so many stamp sets. 

I hope you get to craft today. 

Please share if you use this sketch.

Until we craft again.

Autum Blessings

 Hello Crafty Friends, 

It is definatly getting colder here and it makes me inspired to make Autum cards. This weeks sketch at Atlantic Hearts Sketch challenge Has a great sketch for you to try. Here is my take on the sketch...

I recently had to move my scrapbook room. I have so much paper Im having a hard time justifying buying new product. So this card uses some of that paper....a tiny tiny bit, even with all the layers. 

Here is the sketch for your reference.....

I hope you will play along and join us in the challenge. 

Until we craft again.
