Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #321

Hello crafty friends!

It's time for another inspiring sketch from Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge!  Sketches are a great way to get going when your creative mojo may be missing - like mine has for the last month! Sheesh!  Glad to finally be back in the groove again!

Here it is:

The sketch was created by Michelle Stewart and digitized by Brandi Robinson

Here is what I created:

I used a couple of different stamp sets to create this card!
I used the "So Much Happy- Cardmaking" from the previous idea book along with "Grateful For You" Cardmaking Kit stamp set!  Isn't it cute?

The featured paper is "True Love" from the current SE2 book! :)  As always, you can grab any current supplies over on my website HERE.

I hope you will come and play along with us!

See you next time!

June SOTM Blog Hop - It's Your Day to Sparkle

Hello friends!

Welcome to the June Stamp of the Month (SOTM) Blog Hop!  

This month we are featuring the beautiful stamp set called "It's Your Day to Sparkle" - look just how CUTE this set is!  PLUS, it's a set of 39 stamps! WOWSERS!

Thanks for stopping by today!  You should have arrived here from Michelle Loncar's BLOG. If you get lost at all you can start at the beginning over at Melinda's Blog.

I used this stamp set to create these gorgeous cards:

The gold shimmer pen was used on this one - the photo did not pick up the correct color - but it shines all gold and sparkly!

I stamped the image and did some waterocloring to color it in. I also used some of the ShinHan markers.  A little accent of Shimmer Pen and gold ribbon was all I felt this card needed!

  

The next stop on the hop is the amazing Kathy Burrows and you can find her blog HERE.

Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #313

Hello crafty friends!

It's time for another inspiring sketch from Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge!  Sketches are a great way to get going when your creative mojo may be missing.

Here it is:

The sketch was created by Michelle Stewart and digitized by Brandi Robinson

Here is what I created:

Once again, I used the April Stamp of the Month from Close to My Heart along with the "Feels Like Home" Paperpack. I just LOVE this combo!  I did a little two toned stamping by inking up my image in Sugarplum, then rolling the edges into the Mink ink.  I love the effect it added!!!

You won't be able to get this stamp set after the end of the month, so be sure to grab it soon!

You can find all the supplies on my website.

I hope you will come and play along with us!

See you next time!
