AHSC686 Best Wishes

Happy Tuesday, peeps! I'm a little late posting my Atlantic Hearts Sketch card this week---just took a little break, I guess!  Anyway, here's the sketch:


I admit this sketch had me stumped for a bit, but when I decided to make my card larger than a standard-sized card, I had a better result!  So here's my 5" x 6" card:


I stamped the Layers of Beauty in Versafine Black ink, then used the stencil to add Daffodil Delight, Crushed Curry, Azure Afternoon and Soft Sea Foam inks.  I cut the design apart and layered them on a panel of Azure Afternoon that had been embossed with the retired Quilt Top embossing folder.  The sentiment is from Pinkfresh's Scripted Bold Sentiments 1, also stamped in Azure Afternoon ink. 


I added some loops of gold thread as well as some gold pearls to finish it off.  I had to make a custom envelope as well, but I forgot to photograph that!  I hope you'll play along with our pretty sketch and make use of some of those bold sentiments you might have in your stash!  Share it with us at Atlantic Hearts!

I haven't shared any pictures of Cassidy lately, as she's busy with school and basketball.  She played in an AAU league this spring and after a bit of a rough start, her team won all three games this past weekend for their championship.  It was a long-awaited, well-earned win, too!




To say we were all happy was an understatement!


Thanks for popping in today!  Enjoy it and be blessed!

Beautifully done, I'm loving the yellow roses! They remind me of the knock out bushes in our backyard. A big congrats to Cassidy and her team, how FUN!!
