Hello there!! JustRite Stampers is this weeks sponsor for the sketch challenge over at CPS – with CPS 166. It’s an absolute breath of fresh air because of its simplicity. My card features stamps from the set called the Hope Borders and Centers Set 2" Square. Since the sketch calls for a small square shape it was perfect for sentiments and borders stamped with the 2" wooden stamper.
For mine, I opted to create a border with two layers of a Martha Stewart punch called Gothic Layered Arches then the top layers are Spellbinders Big Scalloped Squares SM #3 and a frame cut with Classic Squares SM #3 and Classic Squares LG #4. On the left side I decided to do something different for me and run three ribbons across with the petite bows staggered.
There are still several days left to join in on the sketch challenge and as always, your take on this simple sketch just might land you some goodies. You can check out the details and see the sketch HERE.

Wishing you a glorious day!
ETA: Hanging head in shame . .. I wrote down the wrong punch name and you all have graciously corrected me. I’ve marked out Gothic and corrected it to Layered. Sorry for any inconvenience. I for one will do a happy dance the day that manufacturers actually put the name on the punch. Yes, I know I could do it, but I’d rather be crafting ;-)
So very beautiful Becca, I love this paper, such a very sweet design! I’ve got to get those punches, love them!
Becca,
This card is so lovely!!! I adore the sentiment, and how you framed it. The ribbon, how did you tie them to get that look, they are elegant and the perfect accompaniment to your card!!!
Your work is amazing..I love looking at your cards, and I feel like I am looking at mini works of art!!!
Thanks so much for sharing your talent, inspiration and kindness!
God Bless,
Lisa Sturgill :)
Love your bows! This card is one of my favorites of yours! Love the colors and textures!
Gorgeous card, Becca…………love the sentiment! Two questions………..where, oh where did you find the K & Company paper you used, and how did you make the squares from the MS border punch. Thanks for sharing your talent!
Blessings,
Pat
OHHHH…I have spied those MS borders and corners punches already and was debating buying them. Now that I see how beautiful and intricate they are, I must have them. (Just as soon as the next coupon comes out! LOL!}
I absolutely love looking at your cards and continue to be amazed daily on how talented and creative you are. I am confused on this one. Did you use the Martha Stewart Gothic Arches Border Punch as you stated or the Layered Arches Edge Punch? I would like to buy the punch you used, but the 2nd one looks like your card and the first one looks more pointy. I’d appreciate it if could clarify that for me. Thanks.
Are my eyes deceiving me or is that beautiful background paper embossed? If so, did you emboss it or did it come that way? I love the dp and your pretty card. Another winner! tfs
This is just beautiful Becca!!!!!!
How delicate and sweet! I love all the lacy edges and not one, not two but three!!! perfect bows! How divine!
Thanks for sharing! :o)
Just BEAUTIFUL Becca! I Love the colors, the femine, delicate look! Your cards are ALWAYS BEAUTIFUL!!!!! So inspiring!!!:) Thank you!
This is beautiful!! I just love that punch and the ribbon is gorgeous.
No one brings beauty to paper like you do!!! I love the simple elegance of this card and of course, your “Becca bows”. The punch sets the sentiment off just beautifully. Thank you.
Such a pretty combination of colours, Becca. Just love it!
Hugs

Lovely DP and great ribbons! Fabulous card.
What MS punch did you use? Not Gothic Arches. Also, tell us about the paper. I cannot read you supplies list.
Beautiful card. loved everything about it.
Thanks for inspiring all of us.
I am continually amazed by your cards. Never a disappointment. I especially like the layers and the floral frame.
OK, I repeat myself: “Wow” I know I say this on every comment, but your cards just blow me away. You speak about them so plainly and calmly, but the combinations of colors, layers and embellishing are just unbelieveable. For me, more layers just look “junky”, but for you they’re magic. Thank you for blessing us yet again.
Good Lord, how beautiful!
What a beautiful card, the papers are so pretty, the sentiment is beautiful and the frame is just gorgeous – fab x
Becca, you continue to Amaze me. I love this card. The dainty flowers in the paper. The paper almost looked embossed. How lovely. Thank You for sharing.
Wonderful card, Becca! I love punches too but I seem to have a problem with punching evenly around a square.What are you measurements for the punched squares?Just rite squares fit perfectly !!!Thanks for sharing! You are the best!!!
Becca you always seen to amaze me with your talents, thanks so much for sharing with us all. God bless you
just curious, are you going to choose a winner for the blog candy you had on a couple of weeks ago?
love how you layered the dies, just phenomenal!!!!
Just gorgeous from the paper to the gorgeous bows to the Just-rite sentiment. This is a real eye catcher Becca. Yummy! Yummy! As always Becca, TFS!!! :-D
oh goodness…so delicate! Just beautiful.
BEAUTIFUL card Becca. This punch looks similar to the Gothic Arches, but I think it is the Layered Arches. I love this punch.
Thank you for your Spectacular inspiration, as ALWAYS!!
So Becca! I need to purchase this JustRite set; my cards will never look like yours, however, at least I can’t blame not having the right equipment. Thank you for sharing your art, Becca!
Beautiful card, as always. To answer some of the confusion on the MS punches. I ran out to get them knowing that I would enjoy using them often after seeing how beautifully they can be used.
Dedra, you are correct…the punch design Becca used is indeed the “layered arches” by M. Stewart.
I would love to know the sizes of the squares that were used with these punches. Can’t wait to use them! Thanks for opening my eyes to a great product!
Wow! Another fabulous card, Becca! This is so very pretty. Love the bows and the beautifully framed sentiment!! Awesome!!!
Hi Becca,
I look forward to visiting your blog everyday!!!
This card is gorgeous (like all the ones you create).
I love the punched frames. Where did you find
the beautiful background paper..green with embosed swirls and little pink flowers. I would absolutely
love to purchase this paper. Thanks for sharing
all your talents, and inspiration.
absolutely beautiful…and yet another punch I HAVE to have. You’re such an enabler :-) Now, if only some of your creativity would rub off on me!
Becca, this card is gorgeous. could you give me specfic details for the the beautiful decorative paper.
Hugs,
Pam
Becca, i would also like to know the dementions of your squares you punched with the MS punch around the page punch.
Dear Becca
A most beautiful and stunning card — wish that I had those punches to make those great designs — will have to make do with my lot —
Happy Stamping from Joyce SA.
I absolutely love this card, that paper is beautiful, love the colors. I adore those punched layers, and the bows are the perfect touch. Beautiful card, I love it!
Hi Becca, As usual your card is just beautiful. The paper, bows, and everything is so lovely, espeically those layers! Blessings for your day!
Lovely card. Everything is perfect – as usual. You have a real talent. I wish you were my neighbor!
j’en tombe par terre tellement c’est beau
Hi Becca,
You always make mini works of art! Just beautiful…I would like to ask you what the name of the paper is or what paper pack it came from and also could you list the sizes to make the squares for the punches!
Thanks so much
Hi Becca your card is absolutely stunning. I have gone through stacks of paper trying to get the tight ‘nested’ effect of your punched squares so far with no luck, cant get the measurements right. Perhaps a Becca Bit tutorial please :) I know what I want to do but so far it isnt happening LOL and I am sure that you have a way simpler method.
Becca,
Such a beautiful card. I love this paper. I have some in my stash and I noticed everyone wants to know what it is. Since it is older I am not sure you can get it any more, but here are the details. It is from K&Co back in the day when you could order 1 sheet at a time. Flora Bella Filagree Embossed Paper ( a Brenda Walton design). Hope that helps and will save you the time of having to look it up.
Marcie
such pretty framing of the sentiment and just love the embossed background and neat ribbon treatment!
[…] I’m talking about the same card, let me say that the paper used was K & Company. I’ve noticed that they have […]
I absolutely LOVE the borders on this card. Just beautiful!
