AHSC # 479 - Happy 4th of July!


 

4th of July in the US will be upon us soon & now that we live in Nevada I send cards to a few friends and family we used to spend the holiday with.

This week Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge is again partnering with the Double Trouble blog challenge to create a card with the AHSC sketch and the "create your own background " challenge from Double Trouble. My card base has been sanded on the edge to add a little texture and the white background was dry embossed with a heart embossing folder. I wanted to use 3 fun pieces for the circle elements, so I cut a heart from glitter paper, cut a circle from a heart pattern paper and stamped the 4th of July image and trimmed it out. I thought these layered together well.

I hope you’ll be inspired to create something with this week’s sketch from Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge and share it on their blog. Details for the Double Trouble challenge are in this link too.

 Here’s the AHSC sketch…..

AHSC # 477 - Kind Words

 




This week's sketch is so fun! The secret is finding a texture and creating some layers. The stripe paper I used with the honeycomb die cut made this easy. I used gold shimmer brush on the bumble bee for just a little more texture. I also decided to use the square format from the sketch. I'm not concerned about not having a square envelope for this card because it will be tied on a gift bag.
