EAST COAST CHALLENGE!!!

Good afternoon all! This week I was brainstorming ideas for my stampers club {tomorrow night} and was looking for a fun sketch to showcase some fabulous Designer Series Paper. We are doing a Gate Fold Card and so it had to be something simple and I happened upon a new sketch challenge AND it just so happens it is an EAST COAST sketch challenge!!! Talk about FABULOUS :) Oh how I miss home (26 days until vacation...)!!! 

So I decided to enter these 3 cards in the challenge and also apply for the design team call at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge :) How fun would it be to work with a bunch of fellow East Coasters??? I am also entering this set of cards in the Accessory Challenge over at SUO, who is not in LOVE with Candy Dots!!! And last but certainly not least I am entering the Birthday card from this collection in the Anything Goes challenge over at Seize the Birthday!!!

  6. I like how you used your sentiment as a flap to keep the card closed. My fave is #3 with the graphic papers. Only 14 days until MY East coast vacation... Thanks for linking up with the Atlantic Hearts challenge!
