I also used some elements from the Daisy Daisy Die Cuts and the It's the Little Things Die cuts. The flowers and sentiment are the Joyful Sunflower Stamps and Thin Cuts. They were colored with the Pale Pink Tri-Blend marker.

A Valentine's Card From An Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge

 Here is another Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge for February 5, 2023. I still have Valentine's Day on my mind so I decided to make another Valentine's card. There are several things from my stash that are getting used for the card. They include the Hope & Kindness Stamp and Thin Cut set. Although it is an older set (May-June 2022), there are still some available. It is a beautiful set! I also used the Now & Forever Stamp  Thin Cut set. The foil hearts on a white background paper is from my stash and no longer available. The heart Thin Cut I used with the heart outline is no longer available but a Stitched Heart Thin Cut could be substituted.

Take A Tour of My Scrapbook Room, Video Room, & Work Room

 I haven't done a tour of my spaces in a long time. My husband took out the carpeting and installed very pretty hickory vinyl and I'm thrilled. That, of course, lead to rearranging which lead to reorganizing...you know the story! I'll link some of the items I use for basic storage and organization.

Let me know if you have any questions. Let me know what you think!

Here's my video:



Leave me comments or questions about my organization or taking videos.

Thanks for watching!!!
