Heartfelt Creations and Picket Fence Studios Slim line card for Atlantic Hearts Challenge

Welcome to November!  I have switched gears from spooky to sweet for this week's Atlantic Hearts Challenge Sketch 354. I went way back and pulled out my Heartfelt Creations Sun Kissed Fleur stamp and die set. I always thought their products were so pretty and I own quite a bit from being dazzled at scrapbook and paper crafting conventions. Some are still NIP but some I have used quite a few times, this is one of my favorite floral sets although it's been a while.

Play along with this week's sketch HERE.

 I stamped and heat embossed the flowers, then inked them up with some Distress Inks. I wiped down the flowers to shine up the embossing after inking up.  Finally, I added a blob of thick liquid glue and sprinkled microbeads over the centers  I say finally, but really the last step is shaping the flowers, you can't get too crazy after adding the centers so I find it pretty easy to shape by hand.  I used some up some old foliage (vellum with white embossing) and created coordinating leaves.

I stamped the sentiment and embossed it.  I die cut it with a tag die.  Layering the flowers and foliage was the fun part.

Ingredients:

Heartfelt Creations Sun Kissed Fleur and Delightful Daisies Stamps and dies

Versamark ink

Stampendous Pearlustre Moonstone embossing powder

Tim Holtz Distress inks: Weathered Wood, Stormy Sky, Forest Moss and Rustic Wilderness

Spellbinders tag die

Heartfelt Creations Peacock with Sweet Threads

I have another make with my favorite Heartfelt Creations collection, well also maybe it is also my most "complete" collection.  I own the Delightful Daisies most of the stamps and all the dies and the Peacock Paisley collection all the stamps and dies.  When you own it all it becomes very versatile.  This time I colored my peacock more subtle with a water brush and Quick Quotes Powderpuff chalking inks.  And paired the lighter coloring with some brighter papers.

I also added some left over pearl/beads from the class I took to the center of the flowers.  I need more of this type of material.  Glitter is nice but these tiny beads are super neat.

Ingredients:

Basic Grey Sweet Threads paper

Heartfelt Creations Peacock and Delightful Daisies stamps and dies

Heartfelt Creations oval die

Quick Quotes Powderpuff chalking inks

Water brush

Versamark ink

Recollections Purple Metallic embossing powder

Recollections Jade Metallic embossing powder

Good morning dear readers!  Today I have for you another Heartfelt Creations creation with the latest Atlantic Hearts Challenge sketch.  I started with a DCWV square partial glitter card base.  I added washi tape and a die cut sentiment.  The real work was in the peacock and daisies.

I used alcohol inks and colored the peacock layer after layer.  I cut my leaves out of vellum and inked on the backside of them.  I added some yellow distress glitter to the center of the flowers.

Grateful Card: Quick Quotes Shades of Grey with Sketch N Scrap sketch

Good morning!  Today is the final sketch of the month for Sketch N Scrap. I used my go to daisy stamps and dies from Heartfelt Creations.  However this time I went simple, I used a dye ink (so no embossing) and just die cut the flower.  I thought there were plenty of layers of pretty papers and I didn't need a grandeous flower.  I think it still turned out very pretty with the Stampin Up Dusty Durango on the Anchors Aweigh 101 paper.  

Here's the sketch:

Ingredients:

49 Shades of Grey 100 paper

Quick Quotes and Want 2 Scrap Blog Hop: Best Day Ever Mini Album

Good morning Quick Quotes readers, Alicia here today, sharing a sweet mini album.  I used the Want 2 Scrap Chipboard Album and the Quick Quotes Winter Bliss collection to create a one of a kind gift. Highlights of the album include the Best day ever chipboard quote that I inked up with Baja Blue PowderPuff Chalking Ink and a die cut flower I made for the front.  I used tons of ribbon scraps around the rings and added lots of Want 2 Scrap bling and shiny things to dress it up.

To create the basic album I completed the following steps for each chipboard page:

1. Ink edges of chipboard
2. Cut paper to fit chipboard pieces
3. Adhere paper to chipboard
4. Sand all the edges
5. Punch holes through paper layer
6. Re-ink edges

Here are all the pages of the album.  I added plenty of pockets for memorabilia.  I punched several tags from various Quick Quotes Winter Bliss  papers, added ribbons and tucked them inside the pockets.  I also inked another chipboard title, Believe in yourself chipboard quote this time with Fuchsia PowderPuff Chalking Ink.  I think this will be the perfect gift for one of my four nieces.
