Well this is how it works. I had another card almost done until I ran into the CPS Sketch (#173) design for the week and I absolutely love it!! So I trashed what I was working on and hopped on board this train!! Gracious!! I haven’t done a sketch challenge in quite a while but there’s a reason I wanted to do this one. One – I {heart} tall cards, don’t you? They get me out of my 6" x 6" comfort zone. Two – My friends showed me how to make those funky little origami folded round paper medallions about a week ago at our stamp gathering and I’ve been dying to use them on something. Voila!! Check!! Three – I simply adore the new rectangle sets by JustRite Stampers and the layout of the sketch was just begging – you hear me – begging, for a rectangle frame ;-)
Okay, so I pulled out my new JustRite set called Victorian Nested Frames and inked up that elegant rectangle border then cut/embossed it with Spellbinders Long Classic Rectangles LG #4. I perched that on top of Spellbinders Mega Ovals LG and on the inside of the frame I cut circles with Spellbinders Classic Circles SM and I used the sentiment from Just Rite Birthday Centers Round. My little origami foldy things are also done using Spellbinders Classic Circles SM.

I’ll be posting this week, but I’m working diligently on "stuff" in the background. That means I’m up on some hard deadlines but I’ll be popping in here with whatever I can muster up. In the meantime, I need to get the current blog candy winner picked with Random.org and announced. Yep, it’s gonna be a busy week!!
Beautiful card once again. I love the size and the medallions are eye catching! I’m inspired again…

Wow again! Simply beautiful! I too love the origami folded flowers and I’ve figured it out. But, What I really would like to know is the name of the beautiful paper. K & Company have so many it is hard to find. You’ve used so many beautiful papers that I have a hard time finding. Would you mind letting know the name of the paper? Thanks so much.
Very beautiful card. As always. Is there a tutorial for these precious flowers…..and can this be mailed in a regular envie or do these stick up too far? Thanks for all the info.
Love the flowers and you make them so beautifully.
Thanks for another fantastic creation.
Becca this is BEAUTIFUL!!!! Those medallions are gorgeous dear!!

O Goll—I think I have that K and Co. paper. Usually I hoard the pretty stuff and hate to use it up, but you inspire me to let it be art–well, try to be!
I also vote for the origami tutorial. What a perfect embellishment it makes.
Very lovely Becca and leave it to you to jump out of the box with circles, ovals and rec’s on one card. Neat!
Oh my, what a gorgeous card. I would never have dreamed of putting so much on one card, but you accomplished it!
Would be interested in learning how you did the flowers?
A tutorial?, please.
Thanks again, Maxine
Wow I’ve got to get some spellbinders, they add so much to your cards. Your card as always is amazingly beautiful.
Have a fantastic week.
