I made another card for the sketch challenge this weekend.
The card base here is a 4 1/4″ x 8 1/2″ piece of Bashful Blue cardstock folded in half.
The next two layers are a 4″ black square and a 3 3/4″ square piece of Petals & Paisley Designer Paper.
I used the ticket corner punch on the corners both layers and added a large black photo corner on the top right with Saffron brads in it.
The blue horizontal layer measures 1 7/8″ x 3 3/4″ and is a piece of Cutie Pie Designer Paper. I used the open Argyle stamp from All in a Row to add faux stitching around this blue layer, as well as the Olive paper. Fairy Tale Ribbon was tied around the blue strip.
For the main image I stamped the Pea from the Hostess level 1 set Event Full on in Black Palette ink on Shimmery White cardstock and cut around it with my Coluzzle. It was colored in with Bashful Blue, Old Olive, Summer Sun and Certainly Celery Ink and Aqua Painter. I used my black Micron pen to add a small dotted border to resemble the dots on the pea pod stem.
The circle was taped on black cardstock, cut out with the next size circle with my Coluzzle compainion set (retired) and then layered on a piece of Shimmery White paper. Again I cut around it with the Coluzzle, using the same template this time, but then next bigger ring for a 1/4″ bigger piece. I then added the scallops with my corner rounder, added dimensionals on it’s back and taped it down on the main card.

I love this baby card you created. Your sketch is fantastic and this card is perfect for the new baby. I was drawn to the brads in the corner as well – I really like how you added those in. Thanks for doing my Friday challenge.
Beautiful card, just love the layout and the colors you used :D!
Beautiful card Beate! The scalloped circle really softens the image, while the black layers make it pop. This is my favorite sketch ever!
Amazing as always! Love the scallop edge on the circle. I wondered how you did it! Will give that a go soon 😉
Way too adorable for words! Love your work. I just made a card using your sketch, but I need to get it up on my blog here shortly!

Sweet card Beate. Your layout and colors are sweet and fun. I just placed an order yesterday and almost got his set, not I wish I had. I got “So Many Sayings” instead. Have a great weekend, Jennifer 🙂
Thanks for sharing all of the samples using the photo corner punch! I haven’t quite got the hang of where exactly to use it, but your samples are giving me lots of inspiration!
Gorgeous watercoloring!
Nice work! Love the coloring job!
This is so cute! I love that little pea pod stamp!
This is too cute! Love the pea pod 🙂 We have a small “family” of friends and we call ourselves the “pod.” One of our friends is getting ready to add a new pea to the pod and this would be the cutest card for her 🙂 Great sketch! Mahalo for sharing with us.
Oh, this is fantastic… I LOVE this card!
Okay, I need a tutorial on using All in a Row!! 🙂 I tried to immitate your faux stitching and it is so hard! Do you use your stampamajig? How do you have this set mounted? Anyway, it seems like a simple idea I just had trouble.
This card it so cute. Thanks for sharing!
