Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge #657

Happy Monday! In just over a month, the big guy will be arriving through chimneys around the world making children happy! Are you getting ready? We have a new challenge starting at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge. Here's the sketch.

Here's my card

I used the small rectangles using Brass & Bliss' Deckle Frame dies. Since I used a busy patterned paper, the deckle edges aren't obvious. Due to the size of the rectangles, my card ended up a mini slimline card. I glued the deckle rectangles to a blue rectangle of cardstock measuring 2 5/8" x 5 5/8" and then adhered it to a cream mini slimline (3" x 6") card base. For the embellishments, I used Birch Press Designs' Gentle Flower and Leaves Contour Layers craft dies and Poppystamps' Leafy Sprigs die. For the flower, I die cut the layers with scraps of white cardstock and added color with spun sugar and picked raspberry distress inks, applied with mini ink blending brushes. I glued the die cuts in place. For the sentiment, I used Simon Says STAMP's Bouquet of Thanks stamp set. I cut the sentiment strip to a double fish-tail banner and glued it to the bottom of the blue panel to complete my card.

We'd love to see how you're inspired by our sketch in our gallery.
