This was for yesterday's sketch challenge on SCS. This was definitely a different sketch for me. You had to cut out that half circle piece, kind of like a puzzle. All in all, the card is very simple, but my brain seemed to think the layout was difficult when I was trying to decide WHAT to stamp. I colored the bee image in with various gel pens and added some dry embossed dots with my Shapes Classy Brass template. I found the ribbon at my local craft store for $1 a roll! A roll is 3 yds . . .is that a good deal? It looked like one to me. The ribbon is 5/8" wide, satin and DUO!! The other side is a So Saffron color. I LOVED it all so much, I got some that is Purely Pomegranate/Old Olive and Chocolate Chip/So Saffron (at least these are the Stampin' Up colors I can compare them to). I just really love it. For those of you who "price" ribbon, don't tell me if it's not a good deal! LOL Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful day! SUPPLIES USED: Stamps- Daisy Bee, Stampendous, sentiment, Verve Visual; Paper- Wild Asparagus, DCWV orange, turquoise, Whisper White; Ink- Palette in Noir; Accessories- white gel pen, paper piercer, horizontal slot punch, ticket corner punch, Shapes Classy Brass Template, Mega circle punch, various gel pens, satin duo ribbon.

Adorable. I love this layout.
This is such a great layout, love the puzzle concept, and love how you did the bow, great card, as always.
This card is adorable. My brain overthought the sketch and I was going to skip it. I think I "get it" now, and am ready to give it a go. The ribbon sounds like a great deal - and in such scrumptious colors!
So gorgeous!! I love the paper and the ribbon...who cares if it was a good deal or not, it's awesome!
This is too cute! I have not done the sketch yet but want to give it a try, maybe yet this afternoon.
Sounds to me that you got a good deal on the ribbon, and the colors sounds great!
