Yes! I'm on a stamping roll today and enjoying every glorious minute! This card was created using Charmaine's Weekend Sketch Challenge #74. It was her gorgeous card at Oodabug Alley that inspired me to play along!
When I saw the oval in the sketch I thought it was high time I dug out my much neglected Spellbinder Die Templates. I use them with the Cuttlebug and it's so quick and easy. That said, why don't I use them more often?! :) Also, I've finally inked up my Stampin Up Pocket Silhouette set. The designer papers are from a K&Company Wild Raspberry 8 x 8 pad and I've matched them up with Stampin Up rose red and rose romance.
On the first try, I added the large bow and after editing the photo, I decided it was just too much and a little distracting from the layout. So I cut it off and took another photo. Which card is your favorite? (I can't really put the bow back on, but I'm curious which you like better. :)
It's been a JOY to read all your comments and I want you to know that I appreciate them so much! I've met so many new creative bloggers recently because of these challenges and the incredible Mr. Linky! :)
If you've read this far, you deserve to get in on a little secret. . . blog candy coming soon!!! :)

Hi Pam. I like the bow, but maybe a smaller bow? It's just the right touch, but maybe it's the size of the bow, I don't know. Your card is lovely.
Pam, I think this is GORGEOUS! Those papers are beautiful and the stamps are so delicate! Thanks for playing with the sketch!
Pam ,I think this is just Gorgeous!! the DP is beautiful, and I love the little flower image..And the bow is awesome..Lovely work as always..
Hi Pam, both cards are great, but I think you're right. I like the one without the bow better. Glad to see you've been stamping a lot lately. I enjoy seeing your work!
Pam this card is wonderful---I am going to have to find that K&Co paper--I love it! I think both cards are nice--they each have a different "feel". I think the ribbon should just be moved over so that it is more centered over the sentiment. It just seems more balanced that way. I think it would be perfect for a "girly-girl" whereas the other one is good for a female who isn't into such frilly stuff, but still likes "pretty". I love them both!
WOW!!! Pam, this is absolutely gorgeous, girl!! Love everything about this, serious eye candy! *STAMPIN HUGS* Alex
I love both of these and the best part is they are simple. I am so limited on time, that cards that come together quickly are what I look for. I adore the colors and the pattern and hope to duplicate something similar. Beautiful!
Gorgeous Pam!!! Love those yummy papers!!!
I agree - the bow was distracting. Great cards as always!
Gorgeous!! I love the BG paper you used here.
I love the card esp the bow what ribbon did you use soooo pretty. I look at your blog every chance I can it is so lovely!!! Thankyou Leslie
That DP is adorable girl! I like the card without the bow, or maybe a smaller scaled ribbon? Both are very sweet as I love ANYTHING STAMPED! LOL! Have a super weekend Pam... Smiles! :)
Personally, I like the card without the bow, but that's just me. :) Pam, I LOVE your blog and I always look forward to stopping by here. :)
