I haven’t been able to participate in challenges since last week. After our site update on SCS I have been busy answering emails every day. So here is another card I made last week.
The card base is a 4 1/4″ x 8 1/2″ piece of Kraft cardstock folded in half.
Next is a 3 7/8″ square of Basic Gray cardstock . The edges were distressed and the corners punched with the ticket corner punch.
The next layer is a 1/4″ smaller piece of Whisper White cardstock. It was first stamped with En Francais in Sahara Sand. The corners were punched with the ticket corner punch and the edges distressed. Next the edges were sponged with Sahara Sand. Then I added images from the Occasional Mini catalog set Sense of time and the flower from Central Park to finish my background. I tied retired ribbon from the Beach Originals around both the gray and my background layers.
The sentiment is also from Sense of Time. It was stamped in Basic Gray on Whisper White cardstock and cut out with Nestabilities. I cut the next biggest shape of the Nestabilities out in Basic Gray, sponged the edges and layered my sentiment on that. A white gel pen dotted border finishes the layer off. The sentiment was adhered to the main card with dimensionals.
To finish the card off I added the big flower from the Pretties Kit. It was topped with a 1″ sponged and dotted Basic Gray circle. The edges of that circle had been slightly distressed. In it’s center is one of the new Kraft Corduroy Buttons. I LOVE those new buttons!!!
I didn’t decorate the inside of this card yet. It just doesn’t feel right to have it that NAKKED! I need to change that. LOL
Have a great day! I am off to walk with Katrina!

I love the colour combo and what you made out of it, the big flower with the button came out great!
This is Krafty-licious! I FINALLY ordered myself a pretties kit. Took me long enough, right? Beautiful card, Beate! TFS.

What a wonderfully elegant card! I love how you have used that new set from the new mini!
So pretty – I love Kraft lately. Gorgeous card, Beate!
I really like this. Even with the ribbon, the paper and corduroy button give it a good masculine feel. Hope your flood of emails tails off some time soon.
