Mornin' y'all! I actually got to SLEEP last night so that's great and I am ready to do All The Crafty Things today : ) Gotta start some laundry (there's always laundry) and walk the Daphinator, but after that it's crafty time. Woooooo!
Okay, so, card:
I am not 100% sure about this one but I gave it a go! Let's start with the colors from As You See It:
Two members of their design team used the Thoughtful Blooms bundle but I kept coming back to it so that's what I went with. Here's the Atlantic Hearts sketch:
This is the second time recently that they've had a sketch with a bunch of skinny strips on it, and once again, none of the strips I already have out on my craft table were the colors I needed for my card so I had to cut more : p. Anyway, I'm counting the peach flower as the circular element on the sketch.
That's it for me today, peeps. Cheers!

Stamps: Thoughtful Blooms
Ink: Gorgeous Grape, Garden Green, Fresh Freesia, Peach Pie

Very nice indeed! Those staggered strips in the background are great. I like the way you've used both flowers from Thankful Garden but trimmed them down to how you want them to be. Thanks for sharing with us at As You See it.
Beautiful floral cluster, Christy! I really love the pretty papers you chose as well. Thank you so much for joining the challenge at Atlantic Hearts.
Ooo I like that bold purple DSP background!! I would never have thought to go in that direction, but it so works! I actually find that patterned paper really difficult to work with, yet with the plain strips and dark green leaves, they lift those stamped florals too so that they don't get lost. A fab take on the sketch and perfect for our As You See It colours too!
I love the colours, that pop of yellow off the purple background is great. The sentiment is perfect too, wonderful card! Thanks for playing along with the Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge (AHSC).

Your comment about all your strips and none being just right made me giggle as I am often in a similar situation! I love the use of purple shades with the pop of yellow. It is truly a well composed card!

So pretty. Love the way the peach pie pops against the purple and love the sentiment. It's a message we need to communicate more often. Thanks for joining us at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge.

Christy, I love that you're not afraid of a bold background and you know how to work with it so as not to lose your focal images! Those paper strips seem to do that for you! Thanks for playing along with us at As You See It!
Love the way you've combined our colours on this card Christy! Thanks for playing along with us at As You See It
This is beautiful! You rocked the colors and the sketch both! Love those florals...very nicely done! Thanks for playing with our As You See It colors this week as well as the AHSC sketch!
