Stampin 411 Challenge-245- SSC245

Stampin' 411 posted a great sketch this week.  I always like doing these sketches because the design team takes the guess work out of the elements in the card. 

Here are some of the potential measurements for this sketch:

 

1. Layer One -- Card Base cut at 5.5 x 8.5", scored and folded
2. Layer Two -- DSP or Cardstock cut at 4 x 5.25"
3. Layer Three -- Cardstock cut at 1.5 x 4" (border punch on the bottom)
4. Layer Four -- Cardstock cut at 2 x 3"
5. Layer Five -- Cardstock cut at 2 x 2.5" -- stamp and embellish as desired

Here's my card:

The card base is in Soft Suede and has been layered with a beautiful  Blushing Bride DSP.  The tea cups and sentiment are from one of my favourite Stampin' Up! stamp sets called the Tea Shoppe, which is featured in the Occasions Mini catalogue until March 31st.  I  used basic pearls on the scallop border.
