After getting the new Stampin' Up In Color cardstock with my first order from the new catalog, I realized I liked the whole group of them so turned right around and ordered the ink. (I tend toward die-cuts on my cards and not so much ink, so it's a fairly big deal for me to get ink!) I knew I could use all five colors with this retired set, Sending Smiles, so stamped them and then they've been sitting on my desk because I haven't had any great ideas to use them. Then I noticed the sketch at the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge and it all came together.
I put the flowers around another new-to-me set - Comforting Thoughts. It was one of Stampin' Up's online exclusives a number of months ago. I got it for this particular stamp but I love them all - they are heartfelt and encouraging both in their words and their look.
Thank you to the folks at the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge for the inspiration!

Oh I love that sentiment! The texture on your card is great, gives a lot of interest while being simple and not to much for the theme of the card. Thanks for playing along with the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge (AHSC).
