Atlantic Hearts Challenge 105

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #105 I used the new CTMH Blossom Paper and Stamp set D1646 "Finding the words".  I also pulled out two old stamp sets to use for this challenge, C1442 Tailor Made and C1564 Stitch Wonder.

Heart 2 Heart Anything Goes... Close to My Heart is Selling a Special Stamp Set in May called Taste of Summer (CC1039) to go with the Taste of Summer Paper Special (CC1038).  I made a Tri-fold Shutter Card using both and added some cute little Bees and Flowers cut with my new Cricut Explore.

Thank you CardMonkey Jarvis for the Inspiration!

Atlantic Hearts Sketch #104

The Atlantic Hearts Sketch #104 was easy for me because I have made this type of card before, so I already had the measurements I needed to cut my paper.  I used Close to My Heart stamp set D1602 "A Budding Friendship" and stamped the card in Hollyhock and New England Ivy Ink.

I used CTMH  paper Confetti Wishes for my card for the Heart2Heart Checkerboard Challenge . I raised the Happy Birthday, Party Hat and one of the Cakes" and added twine and a little bling.  It was a quick and easy card!

Three Amigo's April Blog Hop

Welcome to the Three Amigos April 2015 Close to My Heart Mini-Blog Hop. We are three Close to My Heart Consultants with a love for Stamping and Scrapping and would like to share our creative ideas with you. On the 3^rd day of each month we will feature a different CTMH product and create a card, layout or other project. There are only 3 stops on this hop so it will only take a few minutes to hop through. 

This month we are using Washi Tape in our projects.  It took me a while to figure out what I was going to do but it finally came to me.  I rarely use the Kraft Cardstock but it seemed right for this card... I also used Gold Dot Washi Tape, C1559 Always Grateful and D1584 Bug Hug.

Now "HOP" on over to Susan's Blog and  Lisa's Blog to see what they have created this month!

Atlantic Hearts Sketch #100

This is the 100th Sketch Challenge at the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge Blog! I try to do as many of the challenges as I can.  It is a great way to build up my card collection and the sketches are a tremendous help for inspiration.  

I used the new "Blossom" paper from Close to My Heart, which will be available to purchase starting April 1st.  I also used Petite Perks Stamp Set W2028 "Delicate Wings" and D1510 "For My Friend" for the sentiment.I embossed the Glacier cardstock with the Quatrefoil Embossing Folder, added a few sequins and attached a piece of Glacier extra thick twine with my mini stapler (Z2027).
