We have another Simple Sketch that I've designed for you for this week's sketch challenge (PPA103) at Pals Paper Arts! Sketches are always a great starting point when making a card! If you're familiar with my sketches, you know I try to keep them very simple and basic. I don't believe in dictating where every element should be placed on a card. I think that should be left up to you and your creativity! I give you the basic layout so you can add your buttons, your ribbon, your sentiment, etc. exactly where you want them!
See what my fellow PPA Design Team members and this week's featured artist, Melissa Ordelheide, did with this sketch by clicking here! You'll also find the details for "playing along" at PPA! What are you waiting for? Get out your supplies! I can't wait to see what you create!
All supplies are Stampin' Up!, unless otherwise noted:
Stamps: Full of Life
Paper: Daffodil Delight, Whisper White card stock; Domestic Goddess Designer Series Paper; Patterns Stack In Colors 2011-2013 Designer Series Paper
Ink: Cameo Coral (retired)
Tools: Big Shot, Floral Fusion Sizzlits Die, Pinking Hearts Border Punch, 1/16" Handheld Circle Punch, Stamp-a-ma-jig
Extras: Coral buttons (my button jar), Yellow brads (my embellishment stash), White Baker's Twine, Stampin' Dimensionals, Mini Glue Dots

Margaret what a great card. The DSP reminds me of the days past.... Our kitchen floor was that 50's turquoise and counter was pale yellow with turquoise swirls! Very nostalgic for me... and your flower/button is adorable. What a great card.
Hugs
