AHSC572 Moody Mauve Birthday

 Happy Monday, all! Hope you had a good weekend!  Will you be watching the eclipse?  Not me! I am sure I'll see plenty of news coverage, and it isn't really in my area anyway!  

It's time for a new Atlantic Hearts sketch and I had fun making this one!  Here's the sketch:

I haven't used Moody Mauve in a while, so I pulled out some Poetic Expressions DSP along with some Moody Mauve cardstock and here's what I came up with:


I diecut an oval from the DSP and matted it with a scallop, then adhered it to a piece of Moody Mauve embossed with the Countryside Blossoms embossing folder. My "greenery" is composed of diecuts from the Stippled Roses dies, and this time I added some of the floral diecuts (they're little sleepers in this set, easy to miss!) in Basic White and retired Merry Merlot. I had a hard time adding a bow, so I added a wee bit of crinkled white seam binding beneath each flower:


On the outside, I added a sentiment from Charming Sentiments:


and another one on the inside, along with some more diecut flowers:


This is such a fun sketch, and the design team has some fun creations too!  You can see all of them on the AHSC blog on Wednesday! Thanks for visiting today! Enjoy it and be blessed!

Lovely card, both color and design. The eclipse isn't one of my priorities either. It's raining and overcast here.

The color might be a little 'moody', but your sweet design and the wish is as friendly as can be.
You must know we drove for hours to catch that eclipse in its prime totality. Tom's photos are incredible! His excitement for it was really contagious - and I will admit to being amazed by the wonder of it all!
