Thank you - AHSC 318

Hi! Today I have a sweet card for you from our Sweet Girl paper pack for you. I love the spring like colours in this paper and it makes it so fun and easy to play with. My new current obsession is with the subway tile embossing folder, I am so loving playing with this, what do you think of it?

To join us and play along with the sketches at Atlantic Hearts Sketch challenge all you have to do is create a project using this sketch as a jumping off point and then upload it by clicking here!

Until next time, happy crafting!

Sweet Girl - Cross Canada Blog Hop

Hello! Welcome to the Cross Canada blog hop! We are a group of Canadian consultants with Close to my Heart who gather together online each month to share our creations using the featured paper pack of the month which this month is Sweet Girl. If you are coming to me from Sheena, welcome! 

For this months project, I have a layout using the Sweet Girl paper and the D1858 Summer Memories stamp set. This layout will be featured in my workshop this month for the Sweet Girl paper pack and while I have all girls so this paper is perfect for me, not all of my customers have girls so I want to show the versatility of the paper. I love the soft flowers in the patterned paper, it reminds me of a park day or picnic and that is where this layout kind of took shape. 

Products Used:

Paper:

- Sweet Girl

- New England Ivy, Sapphire, and White Daisy

Stamp:

- D1858 Summer Memories

Ink:

- Fern, Peach, Sapphire, and New England Ivy

Embellishments:

- Clear Sparkles

Thank you for stopping by and checking out my project, I welcome any feedback and comments you might have about my work! It is time to move on over to Jessica and see what great thing she has in store for us. 

If you want to purchase any products found along this blog hop, please reach out to your local CTMH consultant, if you do not have one I would be happy to help you out with an order!

Until next time....happy crafting!
