The Sketch screamed for using the gorgeous Spring Lilac Designer Paper that IBS carries. [Yes, I did use the scraps I had kept] I used a sentiment from Everyday Greetings. I used the first ever punch I purchased from Martha Stewart to qualify for SOS.
I also was interested in the A Blog Named Hero's challenge; Bokeh. I love the look and created it using the colors from Color Throw Down 297; Bermuda Bay, Daffodil Delight, and Smoke Slate.
And, because I kept it a one layer card [ribbon and a few gems do not count as a layer-- just sayin], I am entering it into the One Layer Simplicity; Framed. I used the fun Hero Arts set, Feather Grass.
A great day playing in challenges! I hope you get some crafty time~
Thanks for stopping by~

But I so love all your cards I enjoy commenting on everything I see!!!!
The first card is a fantastic take on the sketch!!! The dp you have used are beautiful and I love the borderpunch. The black strip running slightly off the centre of the card works so nicely with the horizontal lines of the ribbon and the striped paper. This is a beauty!!!!
