Today’s card combines the simple elegance of the Simply Sketched stamp set (a Hostess Rewards exclusive) and a pretty mix of colors for the Pixel Maven’s Color Challenge (Baked Brown Sugar, Coastal Cabana, Very Vanilla).
I relied on this week’s Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge (MOJO304) for the layout. Which design are you more likely to try? Round or Square?
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- Earn the Simply Sketched stamp set FREE with a qualifying order. Get the 411 on Stampin’ Up! Hostess Rewards.
- SNEAK PEEK! I can’t believe the new Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog begins this Thursday, August 1. Are you ready with your wish list? I used the Pretty Print Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (Holiday Catalog) to add the sophisticated script.
- The Stampin’ Distress Tool is a quick and easy way to soften the edges on the Baked Brown Sugar card stock.
- A Stampin’ Up! Antique Brad accents the sentiment. I love the way it coordinates with Baked Brown Sugar

So pretty! I love this color combo. I have a hard time with square cards. I think I would go for the circle if I had to choose!
Beautiful card! That pretty print EF is just perfect. I have my order all ready for the big day :o) Thanks for sharing!
LOVE this elegant and simple design! I see I’m going to have to have that script EF! The antique brad is the perfect accent!
Love this card Mary! Wasn’t sure about this EF when I saw it in the catalog, but now I may have to get it. So elegant. 🙂

This is so lovely, Mary….love that dry embossing!
Wow indeed….a lovely color combination. I really, really like that embossing folder too! I will have to add that one to my “wish list”! The button is gorgeous too! I have not made a round card yet so I will choose round and add this to my “project list” too. Thank you so much for sharing!
WOW!! This is indeed another gorgeous and elegant card. I love the Pretty Print EF and the fabulous touch of those lovely Antique brads. Personally, I like the square look.
I am amazed that you can satisfy the conditions of both challenges while keeping it soft and beautiful enough to be a sympathy card!! You ROCK!!
