I am a bit behind on this weeks challenges. Here is my sample for today’s sketch challenge with the colors of Tuesday’s challenge on SCS.
I thought this layout would showcase Cammie’s new set very well.
The card base is a 4 1/4″ x 11″ piece of Purely Pomegranate cardstock folded in half. I stamped the swirl from Baroque Motifs in Purely Pomegranate on it and sponged the edges with Purely Pomegranate, then with Going Grey.
The Going Gray cardstock layer measures 3 1/2″ x 4 1/2″ and has a dotted border on it made with a white gel pen. It is followed by a 3 1/8″ x 4 1/8″ piece of Basic Black cardstock by a 3″ x 4″ piece of BasicGrey paper. I tied Artichoke stitched ribbon from May Arts around both the black cardstock and the patterned paper and added a double photo corner on the top right that were topped with three Artichoke brads.
I inked up the stamp with Always Artichoke and Purely Pomegranate ink and stamped it on a 1 1/2″ x 2″ piece of Shimmery White cardstock. That was layered on a rectangle Nextabilities die cut and paper pierced. I added black brads in the center of each flower.

Beautiful card!! You’re rockin’ as usual!
Beete, this is very pretty, love her new set =)
Great card. I like the sketch challenge for the weekend too. I’m loving all these smaller chunks on cards because I’ve promised myself that I MUST use only what I have in my scrap bin when doing challenge cards. I’m trying to not even cut for bases. At least until I can put more scraps in without difficulty. Have a good weekend. Joan
Beautiful Sympathy card!!! I’m glad you got to use your tools again – he,he,he!!!

Love this card, Beate! Awesome sketch and I love Carolyn’s new stamp set.
Beautiful. Unfortunatly, I am in need of a sympathy card. I hope mine will be as beautiful as your’s.
Love the little dotted border around Cammie’s flowers and the wide border for the card.
Just love the Always Artichoke ribbon against the nice paper Beate! Great card! Have a great weekend! Hugs, Deb
Cammie loves it! THANKS Beate. What a truly beautiful creation!
I super love this. The colors rock and those brads in the flowers are perfect. I have missed being able to come here (sick baby). Now I have to go check the rest of what you have been up to.
